*Official* Australia in India 2023

[kingkallis]

So just for clarification, Travis Head, the 4th best bat in the world, who's had a great last 12 months, was dropped???

That sounds absurd

Looking at Carey's knock very clearly indicates that Head would have done better than Renshaw for sure. Plus he bowls.

 

[srbhkshk]

Precisely why he is annoying. Neither getting out nor doing justice to his talent.

I am all for abusing Rahul but it's still the first day of the first test, wouldn't mind it even if he was 16(159) tbh.

Bro the forum just was just sucking marnus and Smith off (rightly) for their sub 40 strike rate innings.

Stop being blinded by irrational hate. save it for the next time he tuktuks in an important odi.

 

[andruid]

You think it's normal part of pitch preparation to water only the length areas outside left hander's leg stump? Unless you think Bharat Sundaresan was lying. Almost makes me root for Australia to win in a sub 100 score game with Steve Smith taking 8/35. Almost.

Why phrase it like that? Isn't that also just 'outside off?'

Anyway now that Australia choked up in the first innings did it matter?

 

[Spikey]

so what's murphy's deal? a slower lyon? isn't that nathan hauritz?

this sounds good

 

[G. S. Kohli]

Is it Jason Krezja an off -spinner ?
Here at nagpur, he took 12 for 358 in his debut test, including 8 fer spell.

Todd Murphy 6 overs 10 runs so far
Ball turn only 2.04° (degree) (not much) I wonder why aus hand over
8 wkts to indian spinner?

Has nothing to do with match situation and I don't hate Rahul. He is plain annoying. To see someone so talented bat like he is facing a Muralitharan everytime is, I repeat, annoying.

Why has Boland only bowled 3 overs?

He’s much better than Lyon and Murphy

 

[subshakerz]

Wicket looks great when a pair takes the initiative to score runs. They looks like a mamba once a pair decides to slow down.

 

[Shri]

lyon now has a 5'o clock shadow on his head that he did not have when he started bowling

 

[halba]

this is going to be a massive loss. i dont think aus will bowl ind out in this match, even once.

 

[TimAngas]

This is a disaster so far

 

[social]

This has gotten 4-0 written all over it

I was talking about the principal of the approach, regardless of whether it ends up working or not. But anyway, people already have their own opinions that won’t budge.

 

[TimAngas]

I think the fundamentals are still there for Australia to do significantly better than this for the rest of the series, but some psychological damage has been done.

 

[Test fan]

Rahul gone . Murphy deserve that wicket

 

[halba]

finally 1 wicket..

 

[Spikey]

todd murphy is a sydney sixer

 

[OverratedSanity]

Soft. Nicely bowled though.

 

[Zinzan]

Australia suddenly on top.
