Agar's going for plenty. One of the boundaries was an edge between the slips though.

Jiwanjot Singh this means war

2 more sixes off Agar lol. Debut chances slipping away quickly.

 

[Spikey]

Wicket to Doherty. Not cool.

Whoa, who's that in your avatar mate

Think Beer might've been a better option tbh.

He's injured.

ton for Gambhir. Not sure what to make of it considering just 31 from the total of 182 has presumable been against good bowling.

Also his first 100 since 2010 in FC cricket.

Dougeh!

Sadly, his dancing is much better than his bowling these days.

Doherty has now taken 3 and comprehensively outbowled the other 2 spinners

I dread to think what our selectors will make of this

 

[Spikey]

go home everyone

D'oherty 3/69? FML

Yes. England's win there is a blessing in disguise for India. India to win the rubber 2-1 or something similar.

Indian team meeting:

"smash the one half decent spinner they have, belt the promising one, then make the rubbish one look good and let their mongoloid selectors do the rest"

Reckon that they have done Australia a favour as you'd have to think that any temptation to play 2 specialist spinners has now gone out the window (and thank **** for that!)

Now we can actually pick our strongest attack with a clear conscience (3 seamers + Henriques + one random twirler)

someone needs to tell me what the pitch was like first

Does it really matter when Australia's 5 best bowlers are all quicks?

 

[uvelocity]

yes i believe it does matter social

 

[Burgey]

Looks like our plan to get Gambhir right into the series is coming together nicely.

IMO, the only area in which it is remotely of concern is in the choice between Henriques and Maxwell as the all-rounder
