**Official** 5th Test at Sydney, 3-7 Jan 2025

[vicleggie]

Australia's day but geez tomorrow morning could get ugly.

Not the pitch you want when you are 2 -1 up

Some of the guys here think it will flatten out tomorrow. When that many guys get hit badly on day 1, I'm not sure it flattens out.

Hopefully it wont flatten at all atleast till we are bowling

I think it'll be easier to bat tomorrow than it was tonight but by no means that that mean it'll be flat or easy

Yeah this is so shameless. The mod team can't complain about Gambhiring again.

Just act like a white Australian on this forum and you all g bro.

Start being smug, never post seriously unless putting someone else down, enjoy the BBL unironically, create all time XIs without an all-rounder because you've yet to learn the concept of balanced eco-systems. Spit and look down on any 130kph bowlers, say Joe Burns is a fraud, pretend to be pro-Labor but be a closeted liberal and bully any new posters until they leave. Sh*t on Melbourne if you're in Sydney, Sh*t on Sydney if you're in Melbourne. Sh*t on Brisbane if you have a brain but no sense of taste.

Miss akashdeep. This is perfect pitch for him instead we have run leaking machine parasidh

 

[govinda indian fan]

Need siraj and prasidh to support boom. Cant except bumarh to do all the work alone

This pitch has good bounce. Actually this suits Prasidh better but problem is he's too wayward with his line. Australian batters(especially their middle order) will target him tomorrow.

This is how Khawaja compares to past Australian batsman in the Openers Position in terms of final 40, 20 and 10 innings of career.

His average is terrible. He should be dropped.

I'm happy with Ind winning and retaining the BG trophy so that you can whinge about being the more moral side for the next few years, tbh

You should thank us for giving you the opportunity.

Today’s last over was a throwback to 2010/11 Ashes incident between James Anderson and Mitchell Johnson.

Thank you.

Now **** off

 

[Coronis]

Unfortunately a lot of truth to this by , against halba's form. Will be remembered for having ~2 good years and a decade of being mediocre

Good thing a “mediocre” batsman for Australia still would easily make any other side in the world during that time.

This was far more embarrassing.

Usman literally managed to get through most of today without doing anything (perfect) then Konstas had to drag him screaming into daylight.

 

[subshakerz]

I back Australia to bat more positively than India and get 200 plus.

But honestly need close to 300 to really secure this game and I think they will have at least one middle order collapse courtesy of Bumrah.

With Bumrah's greatness, the expectation etc was a bit like Lillee to Viv on the last day. Khawaja is no Viv though

He must be in serious doubt for the Test match tour to Sri Lanka.

Was like Lillee to Christopher Reeve in the last weeks of his life

If there are intermittent rain breaks the pitch could stay moist and Bumrah could bowl more of the time as well. And hopefully stays angry.

 

[subshakerz]

He must be in serious doubt for the Test match tour to Sri Lanka.

Why? He is much likely to score there than in this series against Bumrah.

Forward defence somebody said?
