3rd Test at Melbourne - December 26 - 30

[stephen]

I think he’s hit this but wasn’t it caught anyway?

Only after around 4 bounces.

 

[Burgey]

Tbf to him this is the best I’ve seen Harris look against anything like decent test bowling.

 

[Burgey]

Only after around 4 bounces.

Haha yeah I looked up after the shout and saw it get pouched. Literally nearly rolled to gully

 

[mr_mister]

Harris is the next Hayden

 

[straw man]

I think part of the scenario of Wood bowling short is that...he is short, for a fast bowler. TH to confirm but he looks 5'10 or so? So he's always going to be skiddy and struggle to bowl a full length that works at this level. But that length to Labuschagne was perfect, and quick. Love to see him build spells like Wagner too where he just goes short and scary for bursts. Hes a gun

Yes that's true, and he does end up half-volley length too often when he tries to go fuller. So it's fine margins for him to hit a 'good' length.
Might be too nice to do the Wagner though.

Harris is the next Hayden

Except a manlet

Hotspot to Marcus - you are ****ing hopeless

 

[Burgey]

This sideline eye lady on Fox looks like a young Kate Ritchie. But hotter.

Carey scored an excellent 50 but has only scored 78 runs in 4 innings (av 19.5) thus far. No better than I'd expect Paine to achieve

One was batting for a declaration and one was opening chasing 20 it should be said

 

[social]

Harris technique is so bad

Harris technique is so bad

If he gets 50 he gets the whole series

Ok fair point

 

[hazsa19]

Wood should bowl more if he’s not injured. No point saving him for later.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Wow

 

[Burgey]

Huge wicket that one. Nice bit of seam movement there.

 

[morgieb]

Well, game on.

Are we gonna regret the Boland selection?
