*Official* Australia in India 2023

[Daemon]

This is probably a jinx but Kohli’s picking the lengths impeccably this test

 

[Anil]

Australia have identified and plugged Pujara's scoring areas incredibly well since the 2019 series.

pujara has scoring areas?!

 

[Shri]

sacrificed himself instead

****ing moron

would have been better for the team if he had saved his own wicket

 

[OverratedSanity]

pujara has scoring areas?!

He used too. Flick to wide mid wicket off the spinners, behind square leg etc and theyve choked those areas with fielders. He cant really score down the ground.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Oh **** Kohli with the slap shot. He used to play that so often

Yeah he cuts well too so they just bowl straight to him now

[Burgey]

You can do it with impunity when you’re chasing <120 odd. Good batting

 

[Shri]

right approach here from us. run rate nearly 5 an over

that was just rohit, the rate will go down now...

 

[OverratedSanity]

Cross format average is much worse than cross format aggregate runs/centuries. Awful that they put that graphic up.

 

[anil1405]

7 days gap between this and next test sounds little strange. Could've had an extra day gap and scheduled a warm-up game (good ol' days) or kept the gap down to 5 days.

With this test being done and dusted on day 3, there will be 9 days gap now for Australia to do **** all.

 

[honestbharani]

Slogging from ball one was just a total mental lapse.

To play the DA here, I think it was more an idea to play the big shot first ball and push the field out a bit and then bat normally. But yes, it is one thing to go with that in mind and another to play the shot when the ball is not there for it.

 

[Shri]

that was just rohit, the rate will go down now...

kohli is back so no

 

[Test fan]

Lol cheater cary want another stumping refer to just check caught behind

 

[Daemon]

Reflects very poorly on them doesn’t it?

 

[honestbharani]

I think if he was captain he would’ve bashed someone’s head in.

Ensured a few blokes in Calcutta were done that way back in the day, I think.

 

[ankitj]

Finely balanced game this. Could go either way.

 

[R!TTER]

There should be an obvious change in the rule! You absolutely don't need to check an edge if there's a stumping involved, this is just BS.

Not without bowling team's review being used at least.
