***Official*** Australia in India 2017

So, the first innings strategy has gone out the window then. Back to attacking come what may?

It makes sense in this situation tbf. But I hope they don't forget what they did first innings.

Also wtf is wrong with Renshaw now?

still got the runs?

0*(9)

No run of either kind yet.

Off the field, not allowed to bat for another 20 minutes I think.

 

[Daemon]

Jadeja's the man here. I'd have mid off back just slightly, protection behind square on the boundary on the off side, couple of men around the bat and someone deep on the legside. Just keep firing it on off stump.

 

[Spikey]

bloody hell it's been left to the Age Transport reporter to destory Warne. Step up, rest of Australian media

Steve O'Keefe, the spin bowler Shane Warne said wasn't good enough for Test cricket, just destroyed the Indian batting line-up.

How do you figure? It's a perfect comparison

Also wtf is wrong with Renshaw now?

Possibly. He wasn't fielding so can't bat for another 20 minutes.

 

[Shri]

Jaddu still bowling short **** every now and then. They are cautious now but those would be release balls if they get set. And just as I type.

That's Marsh.

Jadeja looking dangerous here.

 

[Burgey]

Ashwin trying to get his enormous brain around wtf is going on here.

 

[Spark]

What's the rationale behind Ashwin going over the wicket? I would have thought the batsman would have found that much more comfortable than around the wicket.

 

[Burgey]

Lol they're two rippers.

Gimme an hour of TPC in this mood and the game is up.

[Daemon]

Leading edge?

 

[Spark]

Haha, this is mad cricket. Jaffa jaffa superb cover drive.

As a tribute to our champions I will post this here

Australians all let us rejoice
For we are young and free
We've golden soil and wealth for toil,
Our home is girt by sea:
Our land abounds in nature's gifts
Of beauty rich and rare,
In history's page let every stage
Advance Australia fair,
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia fair.

Beneath our radiant Southern Cross,
We'll toil with hearts and hands,
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands,
For those who've come across the seas
We've boundless plains to share,
With courage let us all combine
To advance Australia fair.
In joyful strains then let us sing,
Advance Australia fair.

That over took 1 min and 42 seconds despite the boundary

 

[ajdude]

Haha, this is mad cricket. Jaffa jaffa superb cover drive.

it's actually so good to watch. the difference between test and limited overs cricket over there has always fascinated me, absolute roads in LOs (see 7th ODI: India v Australia at Bangalore, 2013)

 

[Shri]

Dangerous to go down the track. More likely to get stumped if it dips or drifts a bit.

 

[ajdude]

i'd so go all 2013 and bring in mitch marsh to bop a few over long on
