**Official** 3rd Test @Brisbane (Ewwwww), 14th-18th December

[Johan]

get them out pls

 

[Gnske]

Oh no

Starc's widow's peak looks at risk of imminent disintegration.

 

[Gnske]

Incumbency is just another way to self-sabotage your team btw

 

[halba]

He should be expected to bowl 10-15 tomorrow even at half rat power. If he breaks down so be it. He can’t be picked for Melbourne the way he is now anyway

Can't believe they picked not one but TWO unfit bowlers for this key test..they not short of options in bowling.

 

[Spark]

Incidentally how on earth is Siraj batting above these two lmao

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Yeah this isn't great, but honestly the game was pretty much dead a while ago with all the rain and Haze being crocked again

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

MRF bat is thinking Kohli got his touch back

You can't deselect incumbents, this is an official rule in test cricket

Credit to Pakistan who will do everything short of actually physically defecate on their incumbents if they fail enough.

In hindsight this game was dead when we decided to play a ten man team plus a non-sub sub fielder

Boland obviously comes in but questions on Marsh going into the final two tests

 

[ataraxia]

If Australia get the wicket here they've got an excellent chance at forcing the win IMO.

 

[silentstriker]

Indian batters need time out in middle And put miles on these Australian legs. If they can’t last half a day, they deserved to get walloped.

Yeah Bumrah at least has turned himself into someone who can see off a few balls, Siraj is about as bad as it gets for a tailender. No idea why he didn't bat #9.

 

[Spark]

Why is he bowling around the wicket ffs. Induce a slog

 

[Coronis]

Why is Gill undroppable? He's played 30 tests and averages mid-30s.

iirc Crawley is undroppable.

 

[Gnske]

This feels like a Tim Paine captaincy era moment

 

[Johan]

iirc Crawley is undroppable.

TERRY!

 

[cnerd123]

This is a slight overreaction lol, this game is 90% dead anyway.

Slight overreaction lol

Amusing how your tone changes when it's an Aussie Gambhiring Vs an Indian poster

 

[silentstriker]

Bumrah be like **** all of y’all, you go have a bat now thanks. I’m not bowling anymore.

 

[halba]

iirc Crawley is undroppable.

He was the hero of the recent Ashes. He will definitely play the next Ashes.
