Well I’m home. How long we got to go in the session?

Should be an hour I think, since they just had drinks.

What pisses me off about this team the most, is not the team but the preparation. They should always play all the lead up shield games so they might actually have a home advantage. Particularly, the bowlers. When is the last time they bowled in Perth. Pathetic ACB putting money over performance. I'd argue performance is the easiest path to money.

 

[Coronis]

The **** kind of a review was that?

 

[Qlder]

What's even more worrying about this is that Australia will have fielded 7 of 9 sessions by end of day 3 (about 195 overs)

India on the other hand bowled only 27 overs on day 1 and 25 overs on day 2. So Indian bowlers are going to have some very fresh legs when a tired Australia bats again

 

[OverratedSanity]

That was certainly a review

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

These young IPL stars can be devastating coming in at such times.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Haha holy **** Reddy those are three ridiculous shots

 

[King Kane]

Helen Reddy destroying Mitch Marsh.

‘Putting Australia to the sword’

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

Oof this is brutal. Haven't seen ol Aussie hammered like this in Perth since the Saffas smoked em in 2012

 

[PaulLennon]

hope reddy really develops.

pace allrounder really adds balance in SENA. Even mid Shardul has won India a few matches.

 

[Daemon]

heh this is fun

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Was abt to say Reddy might overtake Kohli at this rate...but damn that's a nice hit from King Kaka

Not sure it was the bowlers fault, the batsman failed.

What's with all the continuous Indian diet/food posts? It's a live match thread ffs so what does food have to do with that

Let's bring back benchmark00 for some KFC posts.

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Please don't declare.

Dal is a terrible source of protein. It's a lot less bioavailable and you get a disproportionately high amount of carbs (and hence total calories) to match the protein content of one serving of chicken or beef. The protein quality index is a thing. Sure, you could supplement with protein powders but they're still a lot more expensive in the subcontinent. There's nowhere near enough protein in the Indian diet if you don't eat meat.

No, protein quality index is almost entirely irrelevant to muscle building. The "protein quality index" thing is an extremely flawed concept based on old data where people fed uncooked bean flour to pigs and used that to extrapolate things. It's far more nuanced, and frankly quite irrelevant

Amount rather than "quality" is relevant to muscle building

Higher dietary intakes of total, animal, and plant protein, regardless of the ratio of animal-to-plant protein, are associated with greater skeletal muscle mass in community-dwelling middle-aged and older Chinese adults with a mean protein intake above the current recommendation for protein of 0.8 g/kg per day

Reckon they're thinking of a declaration. They'll let Kohli ton up first.
