*Official* India Tour of Australia 2018/19

[Cruxdude]

Could we have a do-over of day 3 and 4. India 172/3, Rahane and Kohli at the crease.

 

[Burgey]

Yeah that deck was very different to this one. Still, if they put on a hundred the nerves will start jangling for sure.

 

[Cruxdude]

India will lose by 150 runs. This tail is just ****. We really need Ashwin back fit and get two openers.

Mayank
Pujara
Vihari
Kohli
Rahane
Pandya/Vijay as opener
Pant
Ashwin
Ishant
Shami
Bumrah

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Why can't Kohli open?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Hobart 1999 sticks in my mind

As much as the media would want to make you believe Pant is the next Gilchrist, he really isn't.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Haha

 

[OverratedSanity]

Why can't Kohli open?

Yes, lets take the one man batting well and put him in a position he's never played in.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

It's only fair.

 

[Cruxdude]

Picking Umesh was such a dumb choice. If we really needed a fourth pacer it should have been Bhuvi. Still think we have good chances of winning the series if only we can actually get two openers who are not walking wickets.

Why would you put a rookie at three while the myth continues to hide at five? Has Vihari batted at opener in the past?

I think Pandaya will be a handy inclusion for the Eastern States tests.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Vihari has looked all right. Atleast it seems like hes making an effort to apply himself. Rohit should never be picked again.

 

[Spark]

that ball has carried a long way

 

[morgieb]

There it is.

 

[Spark]

pant

 

[Burgey]

This Pant bloke is a bit of a hack but he's ****ing entertaining to watch.

 

[Immenso]

Wow. Yadav at 8, and turning down singles already.

I thought this would be interesting last day as a neutral to watch, didn't realise how long India's tail was.

 

[M0rphin3]

This has to be the longest tail I've seen in a while. Holy ****, what were they thinking?

Anyway, gonna be fun w/ Pant around, hacking at em'.

 

[aussie tragic]

Wow, a Test #8 having to be shielded from the bowlers....embarrassing
