that's just his technique, and it's very reminiscent of how he used to get out on australian pitches. it's definitely the case that he simply isn't really well-suited to handle extra bounce and he's done very well in the series considering that
You know why. The umpire doesnt bother looking down, the lazy incompetent ****
not watching, clearly
not often you get the opportunity to bowl on a pitch like this to win a test match
True, but sometime I think he gets too obsessed with bowling really full and swinging it instead of being just ont he full side of good and letting the seam do the work
Often happens on these variable bounce pitches. The lower balls catch the edge and drop harmlessly before the slips. Our the ball slows up off the pitch and the edge takes more energy off it and it doesn't carry.
Ironic that being in church caused you to miss a Christian hat-trick
Not a bad idea. They won't do any worse than the current blokes.
Why not play Rahul down the order instead of Rohit? It seems like the most obvious thing to do. It worked for VVS back in the day, maybe its the last throw of the dice as far as Rahul goes.
I understand your frustration, but if it's at all possible I'd keep Pujara where he is. I know he's almost been opening anyway, but he's so good at three for India. Vijay isn't done this innings yet. He might do enough to keep his spot, but Rahul slogged a few in Adelaide but really hasn't looked the business at all.
I think he is too adamant to bat down the order. Always seems himself at the top of the lineup Won't be a bad thought though.
Well, it's not really his call if he wants to play Test cricket. He's ********* as opener, but might just come good against tiring bowlers and an older ball.
Unless he somehow scores a century, get him out.
Vijay scoring a hundred and retiring immediately will be the greatest marquee script of all time
