*Official* Warm-up Matches Discussion

Indian batsmen failing and the bowlers delivering. Who would have thunk it!

 

[Bun]

Piyush making a case for himself I guess.

 

[pup11]

We are making an absolute meal of this, but its hardly surprising as this Aussie middle order against decent spin has been all at sea in recent times.

 

[honestbharani]

Ashwin deserved 2 in the last over..

 

[TumTum]

lol Fergy. White/Dussey/Ferguson against spin = Epic Fail.

 

[pup11]

He wasn't really in "misery", but I agree Haddin > Paine.

Really mate..? He came out bat against the new ball which is probably the best time to bat on this pitch, yet he scratched his way around for a 37 of 57 balls, tbf Clarke has been getting flogged for a lot less.

EDIT: Ferguson too goes, this is becoming ridiculous now. FFS.. don't just stand there use your ****ing feet!!!

Can say that about pretty much any present Aussie batsman, so why just single those guys out?

Yeah all Aussie batsman have their problems, but they can still survive against them and choose the right balls to play. Those 3 are just sitting ducks against quality spin.

 

[pup11]

WTF.... Rick!!!

EDIT: Its so ****ing obvious that Haddin and Smith are still carrying an injury and that's why they haven't come out to bat.

Punter's gone. This is India's game.

Dhoni- don't take the spinners off.

 

[Jayzamann]

Duke to show us how it's done.

 

[Daemon]

If you were Dhoni would you bowl your pace bowlers or get the part timers to bowl after Ashwin and Chawla are done, keeping in mind its a warm up game?

 

[BeeGee]

Australia giving a master class in how NOT to chase a low total against good spin bowling.

Work singles and keep out/leave the good balls. It's not rocket science.
