3rd Test at Melbourne - December 26 - 30

[Aritro]

Felt at the time of his recall that it was too early as it came after just an okay season following years where he couldn’t buy a run

Yeah I agree with this. Only averaged 43 in County after some torrid years. Could have used more time to rebuild his confidence and get a 50 average season under his belt.

Honestly get Green in

 

[Gnske]

Now we get to listen to the racist

Hope the English all watched the Queen's Chrissy message last night - if they sing the song, you need to listen to QE2

I was inspired and I'm not even English.

Such a crappy year for Openers batting first in Australia ..30 players 393 runs and 0 centuries.

 

[Gob]

Racism aside, I don't mind listening to Vaughan

 

[GIMH]

Root
Malan
Stokes
Buttler
7 bowlers

Yes true

 

[Alex0paul]

Is the BT commentary fairly quiet for anyone else?

 

[GIMH]

Joe Root is gonna go down as the Brian Lara of his day, just think about it you idiots

 

[Gob]

Atleast he bowls full

 

[Burgey]

Said it elsewhere rather than on the forum but felt droppings Burns was the absolutely wrong call. Although his fielding maybe tells us more as to where he’s at right now than anything else so maybe he needed a spell

This post will be deleted when you try to dig it up I'm afraid.

Lara had Shiv as back up. Root has nobody

He wasn’t white either but let’s not split hairs

I mean he has Stokes, but it’s preferable if he can be fit
