Thought so.

Cremer? I hardly know him!

Play for your career Rohit.

Aaaaanndd....what the ****

Haze already injured again?

Meanwhile Willow.tv is showing Pakistan Tape Ball League and haven't bothered switching over to Test cricket. The fielding standard is exactly as you'd expect. Its 50 off 2 overs so far.

 

[Burgey]

BCCI is the real culprit behind India's cricket disaster. Those idiots are only concerned with raking in IPL cash. They've completely neglected the development of proper test batsmen and fast bowlers in domestic cricket.

We're stuck with useless players like Prasidh Krishna, Avesh Khan, and Sarfaraz Khan, who are nothing but mediocre domestic statisticsians. The Ranji Trophy is a joke, filled with crap bowlers and batsmen playing for endless number of teams. It's a complete farce.
Australia's domestic cricket system is the gold standard. They focus on players who can perform under pressure and win matches single-handedly.

Time to boot out Rohit Sharma, the worst Test captain ever, along with the likes of Gill, Siraj, and other mediocre players. And for God's sake, stop investing in domestic paper lions like Avesh Khan, Prasidh Krishna, and Sarfaraz Khan.

Get rid of political dogshits from BCCI and replace them with competent people who actually care about Indian cricket. And please, for the love of cricket, don't appoint clowns like Agarkar as selectors.

I love how every other reaction here is laughing at this but centurymaker thought it was a great post.

Rohit and Khawaja batting together would be the laziest pair of drivers since Burgey and his missus were at the Randwick golf course

 

[centurymaker]

Sharma is a walking wicket. Should be dropped for the next test if and when India go on to lose this match.

 

[Gnske]

A great wicket btw in front of the 5 spectators

What's the weather like in-between the rain - drying heat or dank and humid?

The needle on the scrotometer is currently covered with about an inch of sweat.

8 inches of sweat in my case, of course.

 

[silentstriker]

India fully deserves to be pumped here and merit no mercy from the Rain Gods. What an insipid performance by everyone, bar Bumrah (and possibly KL Rahul).

 

[quincywagstaff]

Dismal stuff from Sharma; ball before when the only reason he didn't edge an attempted hook was because the ball was too fast for him was a bad sign.

 

[Anthony Clayden]

Rahul a chance here to break Bannerman's record, Bannerman scored 67.35 of a completed innings, Rahul is 53/85 or 62.3% so far in this innings.
Longest standing record in Test cricket. (Longest standing record which can be broken)

 

[Burgey]

Christ, Smith takes that catch they'd be evens to be following on by lunch

 

[Daemon]

Christ, Smith

I know you think he’s the best after Bradman but this is too much

 

[Burgey]

I know you think he’s the best after Bradman but this is too much

Good from this ****

 

[silentstriker]

In the fantasy world that only I inhabit, where India scores 150 more runs and avoids the follow-on, how long does Australia bat for before declaring?
