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

[Cabinet96]

lbrh him batting cleanskin was one of the best things about that knock

What an earth is lbrh?

What an earth is lbrh?

let's be really honest

for a 25 year old in his 2nd test i reckon there's enough there to see at least a serviceable test batsman in the making

yeah i def don't want to be making any judgements yet but he looks really, really rigid

 

[Tangles]

Can't see how batting for 5 days could benefit Australia tbf.

True but we should be going big and then bowling them out twice. Which means batting out the day at least. Although a Harris triple on day 5 would be epic trolling.

 

[Riggins]

Remember how Slazenger dumped Clarke just before his Sydney triple? Made an incredible call by getting Smith on before the 2013 Ashes.

Think they refused to meet his demands from memory. Didn't really work out for them though.

1 biiiiiiillion dollars?

 

[Spikey]

if smith declares now theres a chance he could finish the series with more tons than watson has in his career

 

[Antihippy]

Jesus Christ. Struggling to hit 120.

That was what he demanded at the IPL auction too, right?

Ha, great stat from Spikey. Soft arse Watson couldn't even ton up against a disinterested rabble on an absolutely dead flat one. 80-odd is a nice score to retire on.

 

[SteveNZ]

You're not trying if you don't have a third man at 500-4.

No point judging Kohli on working with the rabble he has at his disposal, but he's gone no way to show he's any different to past Indian captains who would sooner wave the white flag than show an example with fight (obviously I mean this apart from with the bat and his **** talking)

 

[dermo]

looks like where going to have to spend the next few hours listening to the channel 9 commentators talk about declaring

 

[dermo]

been impressed with burns' play to the spinners, not something you'd expect from a bloke who opens for qld

Nah I'm gonna just watch this over and over: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152994546434313&set=vb.85633169312&type=2&theater

 

[Antihippy]

I thought he looked like a walking wicket for ashwin when he first came out but he has adapted really well since.

 

[Spark]

Nicely played

 

[morgieb]

When was the last time everyone in the Top 6 reached 50?

Don't think we have been harsh enough on India's performance tbh. We would be going hard at the Poms for this sort of effort.

Nice dayboo 50 Joe.

When was the last time everyone in the Top 6 reached 50?

thought someone tweeted earlier that its never happened for australia

6th time all up

 

[dermo]

slats, every damn time

such a smarsh way to go though

 

[Antihippy]

I feel like it's the third time someone got out after the commentators were bigging them up.

 

[Swingpanzee]

Yes Marsh that's the way to go
