**Official** 5th Test at Sydney, 3-7 Jan 2025

[Spark]

That's actually really good awareness by Head, seen so many batsman just watch it gormlessly without thinking about the danger

 

[OverratedSanity]

Better than Rohit.

Give him a medal I say

 

[TimAngas]

Daddy's home.

 

[halba]

230-240 was par without Bumrah.

 

[Prince EWS]

This has really been a horrible bowling performance in very favourable conditions.

 

[Spark]

Why even pick spinners if you're never going to use them

 

[Spikey]

This has really been a horrible bowling performance in very favourable conditions.

if i was indian bowler i'd be looking at my two captains opting of finishing this test and thinking whats the point

 

[Kraken]

These blokes any danger of bringing up the Deep Point to the Non-Head batter? Way too many easy dabbed singles

 

[silentstriker]

Kohli has gone mad.

 

[nightprowler10]

This has really been a horrible bowling performance in very favourable conditions.

Don't think I've seen more than 5% of the deliveries hitting off stump, which is where they need to be.

 

[subshakerz]

Head winning this would be just the cherry on top?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Why even pick spinners if you're never going to use them

They're being picked for their batting though.

Please don't ask why he's batting at number 9.

 

[Prince EWS]

I know it's seaming a lot but they're all bowling absolutely shite and the fact that the odd ball is really leaping would actually suit a bounce bowler like Sundar a lot, he really should have had a bowl by now.

 

[Starfighter]

Head trying to plink it straight to the fielder there?

 

[halba]

Match is finished surely. Ind- basically at SL level without Bumrah especially away from home. No more than 1-2 good batters and negligible pace bowling depth.

 

[nightprowler10]

Prasish again? Bumrah needs to come back on just for the captaincy.

 

[Prince EWS]

They're being picked for their batting though.

Please don't ask why he's batting at number 9.

To be fair Joel Garner usually batted 9 as well.

 

[Spark]

I don't even blame Prasidh for this at this point. Why is he still bowling, this is sabotage

 

[subshakerz]

Don't think I've seen more than 5% of the deliveries hitting off stump, which is where they need to be.

Shows how important having a spearhead is to control.

 

[Burgey]

Is there still time for a late Paul Lennon reappearance or has the horse bolted?

Humanity hopes for the latter
