**Official** 1st Test @ Perth, 22nd-26th November

[OverratedSanity]

Limp way to end it but great knock.

 

[King Kane]

Jaiswal can't believe it, he has hit a wide half tracker from Marsh straight to point, the old sh*t gets wickets.

Great knock but he left a double ton on the table.

 

[Daemon]

Can tell how hungry he is with the disappointment on his face. He wasn’t done.

 

[honestbharani]

Yeah.. either go over or hit it on the bounce. The in-between shot idiocy strikes again, like it often does for his fellow leftie Rishabh.

Gotta stay focussed. Min. lead of 400 is required here with our bowling line up and these flat conditions and Aussies not gonna falter twice in their conditions, esp. when its batting friendly like right now.

 

[OverratedSanity]

I hope there isn't a meme arrogant dgaf collapse. Grind them down and make them feel the pain.

 

[Burgey]

Haze just continues to give nothing away despite no life for him off the deck.

Yeah he’s put in a quality shift

 

[Silver Silva]

Pant walking into this situation like a prime Adam Gilchrist after top order destroyed the contest, it's come full circle lol

 

[Burgey]

That was a great knock to watch, I missed virtually the whole day yesterday but enjoyed his work today. Quality stuff

 

[Skyliner]

Ground grubber. This pitch is a mine field.

 

[Daemon]

Heh, that kept incredibly low. Encouraging signs for Bumrah and co.

 

[honestbharani]

Yeah he’s put in a quality shift

Yeah him and Starc and Bumrah have been a level above every bowler in this test. Of those, Haze is the one who has kept that level throughout so far. Of course, Bumrah has had only the one innings of bowling. And he is also the one who keeps showing there is still some venom in this pitch when you put enough into it consistently. At least keep the batsmen honest.

 

[honestbharani]

Heh, that kept incredibly low. Encouraging signs for Bumrah and co.

Newish ball as well.

 

[Teja.]

Jaiswal's four centuries have come at strike rates of 44, 72, 91 and 54. The range of scoring pace between those scores is pretty remarkable and shows his adaptability.

 

[Bahnz]

Lol

 

[Spark]

"Wait, you're allowed to do that?" --Tim Paine, I assume

 

[Qlder]

Game on

 

[Burgey]

lol Pant. I genuinely hope he never changes

Really hasn’t been a Lyon pitch but his numbers show his importance to the side - getting through close to 20 overs at twos on an unhelpful pitch bowling to set players is handy. Yet I can hardly recall an over he’s bowled. Weird

 

[Daemon]

Awful

Downhill skiing is not a Pant thing

 

[OverratedSanity]

Thats not good

 

[ashley bach]

Had the feeling Pant wouldn't be intent on building an innings.
