No way. If voges is going to replace anyone it's going to be darsh.

Also following this series is ****ing brutal on my sleep cycle.

yeah but voges would not have played had rogers not been injured.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Haha great knock!

Ah alright. Mistook what you wrote.

 

[Tangles]

Top effort. Significant for the match and the Ashes. Puts Darsh into the firing line. Watson ok if he is bowling. If he decides he's not fit to bowl again then he's also in line.

Probably the best debut innings I've seen. Clarke's the only one that might be better that I can think of offhand.

edit: du Plessis another candidate.

 

[Gob]

good lead already but another 50 or so could put it beyond their reach

Tougher pitch, no? IIRC that Bangalore pitch wasn't easy but this is close to three times the next best score.

Unless you're only thinking of just Australians, it's got to be Faf, right?

Yeah. Hard to quantify but Clarke's was in a more important series and huge pressure etc which does mean something. But this is an innings which could be the best career hundred of an accomplished test batsman, which is a rare thing in a debut innings.

Yeah edited a minute ago and mentioned him. Different sort of innings again but probably the best one.

His debut innings wasn't that good.

 

[Jimbeamo]

Samuels is back, free runs for Australia.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Haha you're right, although that innings was top class too tbh. Clarke the winner then.

 

[Top_Cat]

Scorecard probably doesn't reflect how tough conditions were but Sehwag's a great shout for best debut knock too. This one will take some beating, though.

 

[ajdude]

James Faulkner's debut knock will beat them all

so well played by Vogesy

 

[Tangles]

Paying the price for poor bowling the the 2nd new ball here. If the lead gets to 150 then that's a massive blow for a team rolled for 148.

 

[Gob]

haze

 

[Spark]

What's Haze doing at #11? He looks great.

 

[Jimbeamo]

Bad captaincy decisions, cant keep these two bowling and getting smacked around.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Hazlewood never been dismissed in tests so far. 62 runs and counting.
