[G. S. Kohli]

Cong Rahane ji for 26th Test 50 (12 hundred) he need 23 more for 5000 runs.

Rahane looking pretty good isn't he India fans?

 

[Starfighter]

Think the stubborn refusal to try some of the younger ranji batsmen out

Pick Ranji batsmen? But why pick someone who averages 78 in first class cricket when you can pick someone who can hit lots of dingers in the IPL?

(Referring to S Yadav there).

Not sure that was the inspirational thought he wanted it to be. Pretty sure girls can do martial arts too.

I believe his girls have other hobbies

Langer talking about "growing a leg" while watching men at the other side of the crease is entering risque territory.....

 

[OverratedSanity]

They just need to pitch one up and Thakur is going to miss it. He's been camped on his backfoot for 3 whole overs now.

 

[Socerer 01]

can Langer get cancelled for his karate talk so that we can have better commentary?

Thakur

Lord Thakur heading for his 3rd 50 in as many innings at oval

Well, we've gone whole series without pitching it up to the tail...

200 up for India.

Well, we've gone whole series without pitching it up to the tail...

Most sides fail to pitch it up at tailenders these days. Bang it in constantly and get nowhere.

 

[ataraxia]

Clipping imo

 

[Aidan11]

Going down leg this.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Looks close

Lord Thakur heading for his 3rd 50 in as many innings

he already has 3 50s in tests and his last scores aren’t even above 20, wtf is this post

 

[Aidan11]

Poor review.

 

[Prince EWS]

They just need to pitch one up and Thakur is going to miss it. He's been camped on his backfoot for 3 whole overs now.

I was going to say he'd probably slam it through cover as soon as they did, but tbf Thakur luck often tends to work in reverse with his batting. Today's innings has been a bit of an anomaly on that front.

 

[TheJediBrah]

cheating Indians paying off the umpires again

 

[Molehill]

Looked a fair decision that, surprised it was even clipping from the first view.

Rahane is very very good player, - Green not so in these conditions
Maybe we should play Neser instead of Green>? Im not even sure Green is better than Neser overall batting or bowling or both in these conditions. Neser is way better bowler.
Starc to be flat out dropped.

Khawaja
Warner
Labuschagne
Smith
Head
Inglis/Harris(no6 batter)
Carey(w/k - no reverse sweep)
Neser
Cummins
Boland
Lyon.
