2nd Test at the MCG, Melbourne, 26 Dec - 30 Dec 2020

[Spark]

Spark to be pleased that just about the only ball that Lyon has bowled below 89kph grabs a wicket.

c

a daemon classic, that bowling effort from lyon

Bumrah batting average watch: 2.92

 

[mr_mister]

Green at risk of being labeled tad bits n pieces if he continues to get no runs or wickets

 

[Daemon]

Lyon's averaging 67.5 to Ashwin's 13.25. Burgey tasting.

ffs 35 now

 

[Burgey]

That’s a really good session for Australia. About as good as they could expect in the circs. Handy not having to start before lunch as well. A slight opening in the game but still a long way behind with the way the top order has been going.

you're never quite as far in front of the game as you think if you have a 6-out all-out lower order

 

[Gnske]

I hope for all our sakes if Burns gets out cheaply that its over quick.

your fault

 

[TimAngas]

Thought Australia were pretty rubbish in execution that session though despite the good results. Set defensive fields early, got pretty carried away with the short stuff and still dropped a catch.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Bumrah batting average watch: 2.92

He might outdo Chris Martin if he gets a few more ducks. Definitely a decent chance to finish with more wickets than runs.

 

[Prince EWS]

your fault

Go fishing, Captain.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

C'mon you Aussies. Get the last 3 and then hopefully everyone except Smith can get a big score.

Good start now need the openers and Marnus to go big.

 

[Daemon]

Go fishing, Captain.

That was bait for Burgey tbf

 

[Slifer]

Good fight bk here oz. I was thinking an Indian lead of at least 150 would've put them in the driver's seat. 130 is still ok. Now oz has to set a minimum target 150 to stay competitive, 200 to make india sweat and 250+ will be almost impossible...imo

Did you catch a big Burgey on your fishing trip today?

150+ target will make Australia favourites. India are atrocious at 4th innings chases.

will take decent batting to get there though
