***Official***Match #14- Australia vs Sri Lanka- October 16th-Lucknow- #BottomDwellers

[Socerer 01]

Kind of Sri Lanka to bring back their medium pace pie chucker. He's even dragging Marsh back into form...

Kumara’s anything but medium pace wtf

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Take that one back Chris

 

[Socerer 01]

Kumara and Rajitha single handedly spoil this narrative unfortunately

huh good timing on that one

 

[Spark]

Fair to say the Aus team don't think much of the umpiring so far this tournament given some of these reactions

Looked down at the iPad while I was on a meeting and saw Warner raging like he'd just seen Joe Root in a nightclub.

He should be fined and Australia deducted points IMO

Say the whole story now

What was Joe doing?

 

[wpdavid]

Marsh cba to see if the others can contribute.

Minding his own damn business

Has Smith changed his trigger movement again? Feels really weird that he's getting so closed off to those balls and struggling to access the legside off middle stump.

 

[King Kane]

Mitch Marsh going for it before he runs out of partners.

 

[Prince EWS]

Yeah he's missed a hell of a lot of straight balls this year. Not even just swinging balls but nude straight balls.

Yeah it's the sort of thing bowlers always used to think they should be able to do to him with his technique, but he'd just suck them into getting milked into the leg side repeatedly for hours. Concerning that he's just... missing them so often.

 

[Silver Silva]

What are the wanker symbols down the sides of the graphics on the coverage? Are they meaningful or are early 90s casual shirt patterns still a thing in India?

This was really funny , I nearly spat out my coffee

Far be from it for me to work out Smith's technique but it's almost like he's doing a version of "plant the foot down the line" and it's stopping him from being able to cleanly access balls on that line, which for him is more like a leg stump line would be for everyone else.

The Rabada one was even worse from a technical pov. He didn't get anywhere near that one.

Given his whole game was built on keeping out the straight ball, end could come faster than you think

I've never heard cricket described in such an ****** manner before.

i mean it was umpires call on review - so even though it didn’t look out on tv, you can’t call it a bad decision.

Tubby was on about not being surprised if he walked away sooner rather than later during the Ashes. He may have been on to something

Yeah I never bought the "Smith in permanent decline" narrative before but if he keeps getting pinned LBW like that then I just might. Those are bad dismissals.

Not according to Davey

Man is a god damn hero who punched racism on the mouth
