Pumped to see Haze bowling here.

Sorry, but why do people say playing Aaron and Yadav can get ugly? Is it because they can both leak runs?

Both leak runs and neither have shown an ability to build pressure. India has no steady stock bowler like Shami to tie up an end.

**** i hope he's setting him up for the mother of all off cutters.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

lol.

*more likely to do it than Yadav or Aaron.

Chappell advocating Dhoni as a specialist batsman.

Forgot to mention his ability as a fourth seamer though

I live in Tenerife, Canary Islands. Im sure some of our english members would be familiar With the south of Tenerife as a place frequented by english and Germán tourists. Fortunately, however, I live in the north which is basically a completely different entity.

Not going to lie. Was hard at first - female wise. No one speaks much english here so it Was a struggle in the beginning . But like the surf season which was also virtually non-existant in August, it continues to get better.

It should be known that Santa Cruz, the capital, plays host every year to the second biggest carnivale in the world. That takes place in February

going there in feb

oh boy

Not by much, Shammi's upside potential isn't close to Aaron and Yadav in particular. Shammi isn't a run container at all, he can be somewhat less expensive than Yadav but Yadav is the guy who can really pick up those 5 wkt hauls and put a team in a position of strength.

 

[Swingpanzee]

Beautiful bouncer.

 

[Cabinet96]

Was just thinking he looks notably easier to play than last year then that short one.

 

[Gnske]

What are the odds Chappell goes on a spiel about Dhoni's keeping every test match?

2 for 2 so far

tbf this time last year he'd given away like 15 runs already

Depends if Dhoni continues to keep in the same way he kept in England, I'd guess.

He can (bowl faster than Hazlewood, and) bat better than both Dhawan and Raina.

GotSpin the biggest disaster for Tenerife since two jumbos collided there in the 70s.

Hope you're carving up.

Just checked up Yadav and Shami's record. I was definitely overrating Shami off memory. The problem here is Aaron, because he hasn't shown any real wicket taking yet in Test cricket. Having both him and the already erratic Yadav in the same attack is poor balance IMO.

 

[Contra]

"what the ball mate" lool

 

[weldone]

India should do relatively well in this series. 4 of our batsmen are looking good in this series so far - Kohli, Pujara, Vijay, Rahane.
