I thought that was out. But what’s the exact rule if you can’t tell

Righto, if Australia collapse here we will be told the pitch ‘got spicy’ all of a sudden. And if they bat well the purported ‘flatness’ will never be mentioned.

By whom?

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

No harm done. Except Patty doing a Karen move "I want to speak to the manager!" "I am the manager". "Then bring me your manager!"

 

[silentstriker]

How long does it have to be on the ground post hit? It’s an interesting one. A microsecond?

Konstas time

 

[Skyliner]

Konstas is protecting Khawaja according to Gilchrist.

 

[silentstriker]

Konstas is protecting Khawaja according to Gilchrist.

If that’s the case, Khawaja should retire mid innings.

 

[Skyliner]

“Hahahaha”
- Adam Gilchrist after Konstas has a big windy agricultural slog but doesn’t connect.
Konstas is either beloved of the Gods or has done a deal down at the crossroads like Robert Johnson did.

If Australia collapse it will be due to crap batting and Bumrah genius, not due to the wicket.

Agreed.

 

[stephen]

India don't deserve Bumrah.

 

[silentstriker]

India definitely don’t deserve Bumrah.

 

[Burgey]

Jaiswal too busy eyeing off a reflective surface to be bothered taking a regulation catch there

 

[Skyliner]

Kohli drops catches as well I’m sure.

 

[Burgey]

Khawaja’s footwork so bad

 

[stephen]

How quick was Siraj' fall from grace. Not even opening the bowling this innings.

 

[Daemon]

That was such an easy catch smh

 

[Burgey]

Ricky Ponting talking batting technique is cricketing porn of the highest order

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

Ricky P woulda claimed that catch just sayin'

 

[Skyliner]

You need some luck as a test cricketer.
