*Official* India Tour of Australia 2018/19

[Burgey]

I don't generally go for the #intent bullshit, but I don't mind Warne's idea of sending Starc in next with a bit of a licence to up the ante.

 

[Starfighter]

Lots has been made of Australia’s weak batting, but I’ve seen very little talk of the pitch.

Hard to think of many other home surfaces (maybe the odd Hobart greentop) which have suited them so poorly.

We have a real knack of preparing surfaces that suit India when they come around.

Yeah I'm all for pinch hitters. If he gets out straight away it's no big loss

 

[Burgey]

Yeah, the only reason I'm in favour of it is that he's just manifestly unsuited to trying to play conservatively if he has to do so in a few hours' time. Whenever I've seen Starc play defensively he's invariably got out for sfa. Paine and Cummins are far more capable of a grind late today than he is.

 

[Starfighter]

That was a vicious ball.

 

[Burgey]

Jeez that's terribly played. Good nut though.

 

[mr_mister]

Second slip was celebrating like crazy before the catch was even taken lol

 

[social]

Great ball

 

[Starfighter]

I though Head was decent at playing the short ball but I suppose it's different when it's Sean Abbott's 130 km/h in a Big Bash match.

 

[Starfighter]

Lane is so bad.

 

[ajdude]

that’s such a good nut. this is gonna be like the 1st test v England in 2014 where Ishant bounced them out isn’t it

 

[Shri]

lol

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Five away

 

[ajdude]

fox cricket’s theme song makes me feel like i’m walking into Hyrule Field in Zelda for the first time, i find it so funny and it’s been ruined for me

 

[Gnske]

How many no balls will happen during this spell

 

[ajdude]

that’s the second time mark waugh’s said “umesh or kumar” and i thought he said “bhuvneshwar kumar”

 

[slippy888]

2 men basically fighting for there careers here in Shaun Marsh and Paine i would be worried if i was an indian bowler

 

[vcs]

Whenever I've watched Paine bat (very little), his technique looks so solid.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

197 is gettable

 

[Starfighter]

I've missed the vintage Indian fielding.
