[Neil Young]

Good to watch, this. Nice dec from the Aussies. All set up for a grandstand* finish.

*Damp squib

 

[Shri]

Boland can't do it on his own.

then he doesn't deserve his statue at the G

 

[Saket1209]

Everyone chanting cheat when Green came to bowl.

 

[Anil]

On another note, Aussie bowlers better be way sharper than this during the summer or they will be taken apart by Bazball…

 

[Jfry]

Lyon a real chance to be taken apart by Pujara

*In his strange way*

If eng would have been in the place of aus in wtc final then it was impossible for us to chase 444. We still have a chance because Aus attack

 

[OverratedSanity]

Same round the wicket lbw plan to Pujara they used in the India tour.

 

[Anil]

We don’t have a chance Saket…

 

[Saket1209]

Gone

Lyon a real chance to be taken apart by Pujara

*In his strange way*

Pujaras really struggled against him after they've changed their tactics against him fir Lyon. Round the wicket lone targeting the pads + plugging mid wicket area.

 

[Saket1209]

We don’t have a chance Saket…

Let's be optimistic .

 

[TimAngas]

On a pitch like this with a bit of variable bounce Lyon should have been given the ball earlier.

 

[morgieb]

If this isn't outside leg this is plumb.

 

[Daemon]

Ffs

Now that Lyon’s got an early wicket I guess India aren’t favourites anymore

 

[OverratedSanity]

What a garbage shot

 

[Spark]

Meh game was gone anyways.

My gut feeling is such catches should be ruled out. But I also recognize had it been an Aussie batter and Indian fielder, most Aussie fans would have been up and down about this being given out too. C'est la vie.

As long as the umpires are consistent across the ICC games in ruling such catches out, I think it would be ok.

Speak for yourself, I've been consistent in my entire time here that catches like should always be given out.

 

[morgieb]

I did say Lyon was the key.

But seriously, from ball 1 he looked dangerous. Maybe wasting Starc wasn't a bad move

 

[trundler]

That was a terrible shot. Good plans from Lyon though.

 

[Nintendo]

terrible shot from rohit jeez.
