**Official** 4th Test at Melbourne, 26-30 Dec 2024

[Gnske]

Harsh on Head, he isn't terrible but it was a terrible leave.

After Head went down on (a table with) a groin (injury), he's not the same man

I have a bad feeling about this match again.

Australia have Boland and it's the MCG.

I am not too sure of Jaddu in that short midon position. He is not that good a fielder at catching positions.

 

[SkyBlue]

Marsh now has 46 tests despite a batting average of 28.93

The real bits and pieces cricketer /manjrekar

They'll be fine

Gotta get Jaddu on now and maybe take the new ball with 15 mins to close of play during that extra half hour. Dont expect sensible decisions from this management though. And there ya go. Got Siraj on.

 

[stephen]

TBF those two innings set up those matches. He's batting 5, he really shouldn't need to score runs every innings. It's just that Marnus has forgotten to crack on and Mitch Marsh has forgotten how to bat.

Tbf I'm not sure Marsh has ever known how to bat.

 

[halba]

Goodness why was Marsh persisted with? All the good work undone. He never was test standard

He's almost certain to be dropped for scg , for Webster who should've played all 5 tests!

 

[Starfighter]

The main issue is that he's the only one scoring any in the team right now. Every batsman will have a bad innings or two and the others need to step up. They kind of have in this test so far but someone needs to go on and score a hundred. 4 half centuries is not enough.

That's what I said, but in more words.

 

[silentstriker]

Can someone else please learn to bowl? Indian kids need to stop modeling themselves after Kohli and Tendulkar and need a bunch more Bumrahs plz.

 

[Daemon]

**** that's the same shot Marsh played

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Siraj becomes embarrassingly innocuous as his spells wear on

 

[stephen]

Steve Smith's first innings average is 51 runs higher than his fourth innings average.

Smith's 4th innings average is higher than M Marsh's batting average.

 

[honestbharani]

Why would anyone think getting Siraj on now is a good idea?

Posted yesterday that his entire family have been rewarded with waaay too many tests

Just odd

 

[Johan]

YOU ****ING CLOWNS, WHY DID YOU BRING STEVE SMITH BACK IN FORM????

 

[halba]

Posted yesterday that his entire family have been rewarded with waaay too many tests

Just odd

Its so strange given the fact that none were any good in batting. And Mitch Marsh doesn't have a great FC record.

 

[ankitj]

Whoever thought Smith has declined either doesn't know Smith or doesn't know what decline means.

 

[the big bambino]

Why would anyone think getting Siraj on now is a good idea?

Have to agree. Deep was doing well and surely they can give Jadeja or Reddy a go.
