    1st Test, Aus vs India, Adelaide oval 17th-21st December

    Haha people are criticising my view that a team batting first should get 400-500 at Adelaide? Wait till Aussies get 450 + batting second.

    Why do batsmen take quIck singles in test crickEt despite them never being worth it?

    There is nothing wrong with a single when there is one to be taken. Quick ones and twos put a lot of pressure on the opposition. Plus, they add to the runs which helps you in the end goal.

    Ideally a team should get 400-500 batting first in Adelaide really

    KL should have been selected. It's a bit shocking that he wasn't tbh.

    1st Test, Aus vs India, Adelaide oval 17th-21st December

    I wasn't a fan of Pujara not moving things along a bit in the second session. Apart from that, it's not as bad as it looks. I usually expect us to be 200 all out in the first dig of a test series abroad. We are obviously behind overall given its Adelaide but our bowlers are good. Let's hope we...

    Dissing the player before the series has even started is kind of a low blow. And then saying he will not do that if he averages 22 etc is an extreme yes. Let him perform or not perform in the series then say what one feels. Constantly going on about his past record is kind of nuts.

    Dighe came later dude. I am talking about the period when we had guys like Vijay Yadav.

    KL is a part time keeper at best. We will need a new test keeper in a year or two. Easier said than done. I remember before we found Mongia, there was a period where we went through a fair few average keepers.

    Re Saha, he averages 42 in FC cricket and 30 in tests. As a reliable keeper, that's quite good value. Not sure why there is so much debate re Saha all the time. Let us have some other viable options, then we can debate.

    Haha yes. True. Also, welcome to the forum. You seem like a nice new poster.

    You are using one extreme and putting in another extreme to try and justify your point. No one is saying he is going to set the world on fire ffs.

    Runs and wickets don't happen on past reputation dude. Else we don't need to play this test series. We can all snooze and wake up after 2 months.

    Ponting has nothing to lose when he tours India, then, by that logic. Actually Ashwin has a fair bit to lose..

    You are being a bit harsh on Ashwin here.

    1st Test, Aus vs India, Adelaide oval 17th-21st December

    Ashwin averages 27 in Australia with 2 50s. That's not bad, hey.

    How? If he doesn't make runs, it means that he loses test runs which he didn't make.

    Burgey quietly enjoying Ashwin's inning, I reckon.

    Why do you think Kohli is a douchebag?
