***Official*** India in Australia ODIs 2016

[indiaholic]

Considering the kind of bowling line up Australia played today, this is a terrible loss..

...why did long on stay back?

catching position.

Sounds stupid but a lot of skippers will leave a man or 2 back even with 1 to win.

 

[Jono]

Holy **** at having a long on. Definition of not giving a ****;

 

[TheJediBrah]

India's spinners just not used to bowling in unhelpful conditions tbh. They had no idea what to do.

Really makes you appreciate how good Nathan Lyon really is

 

[Gnske]

George absolutely snubbed

 

[OverratedSanity]

Why did Faulkner had to come and get the winning runs as usual ffs

They are used to it tbh.. ODI wickets in India have more than their fair share of roads.

Irrational captaincy by Dhoni during the last 10 overs or so. Especially when Maxwell got out maximum pressure should have been applied rather than let the game drift.

Lol what? Indian spinners bowl on more ODI roads than Lyon does. And not just because he doesn't play ODIs.

Lyon would have been **** on today on that track

...why did long on stay back?

So that people can say India lost because of Dhoni's defensive and negative captaincy.

Sums up how he has been treated all throughout his career.

 

[Jono]

George absolutely snubbed

at least he got love for his canary yellow floppy hat. There are twitter accounts of the hat already

 

[Spikey]

well he did get out first ball

 

[Gnske]

You're never out unless its given, George merely stood his ground like all elite cricketers would.

[Daemon]

very disappointed in Ashwin's figures. hope it was more good batting rather than poor bowling?

wac. he's been going on about the kookaburra being good, performing well in australia in the last tour plus world cup and in general giving us fans confidence that he'll play well everywhere. better not make us taste it.

He was terrible.

There was nothing in the pitch for the spinners at all. but man did Ashwin ever send down some pies. The only balls he bowled that weren't too straight were way too short instead. If he bowled anywhere near as well as he has lately I think India could've defended that, flat pitch and all.
