***Official*** India in Australia 2014-5

Does anyone know how Haydos could have had any idea that Warner might be out for series before xray was even taken? It appears he doesn't even have a fracture. So why the premature grandiose comments - or did I miss something?

 

[Spark]

pretty sure whatever luck smith's had has been more than repaid with that

 

[Cabinet96]

ffs.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Dhoni's lucked into that.

Nope. He always does that for runouts. One of the few things about his keeping that's genuinely great

Yeah see that now. On first viewing though looked like he'd muffed it

Hayden is a dickhead.

I've had the same thing that happened to Warner happen to me twice. Once I played a week later and even bowled with the injured thumb, and the other time I broke it and was out for almost a month. The break didn't hurt more than the non-break at the time; it's just not something you can tell right away.

If India had an extra hundred this would be uncomfortable.

 

[Spikey]

haddin has so little respect for his average. jesus christ man

 

[morgieb]

Oooh.

 

[Spark]

That's properly, properly dreadful

 

[Tangles]

Ffs Rad.

Australian first innings tail-wag the difference, even if we exclude the Johnson runs from that.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Such a ****ing tease. Would've been better if Australia romped home instead of them laughing at us while throwing their wickets away while saying "Don't you wish you ****s had 70 more runs if you hadn't been muppets this morning?"

 

[Bahnz]

How close is Haddin to being axed? His batting has been terrible for a long time now.

 

[Cabinet96]

Rad Haddin. Great at home, unless he's playing India.

 

[morgieb]

This feels like the ODI a few weeks back.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Australian first innings tail-wag the difference, even if we exclude the Johnson runs from that.

Yeah. But if we exclude the Johnson runs, I don't think Starc and Lyon would've got the runs they did. Johnson's innings just deflated us completely.

we're winning so the whole series at least.

 

[dfrinku]

If India had scored a few more... Australia would have chased that too, don't be silly.

 

[Prince EWS]

Yeah. But if we exclude the Johnson runs, I don't think Starc and Lyon would've got the runs they did. Johnson's innings just deflated us completely.

"Exclude the Johnson runs" meant from the tail-wag difference rather than the score - ie. even if we let the Johnson runs stand and India just didn't let Starc, Lyon and Hazlewood hammer them around, this could've been a real contest.
