***Official*** West Indies tour of Australia, Jan–Feb 2024

[Neil Young]

This is great by the WI.

 

[Starfighter]

The over rate has not been helped by the batsmen often taking a while to face up.

Think that's mostly due to the conditions tbh.

This would be a very very bad wicket to give away.

 

[Starfighter]

Desperate review.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

I was kind of hoping both could last till stumps. Oh well...

 

[Burgey]

 

[_Ed_]

Aw man.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Think that was the biggest partnership against Australia in Australia since Root/Malan in Brisbane 21/22.

 

[Kraken]

Well batter JDS - shame he couldn’t convert

 

[Spark]

Alex Carey for Test team of the year? Surely that can't be right

 

[OverratedSanity]

Aww shame for da Silva. Hope Hodge gets a ton at least. This has been a decent fightback.

On this, it's worth noting that once the innings changeover is taken into account, only one less over has been bowled here than at Hyderabad despite the latter having far more overs of spin (granted, more boundaries too).

Must be a poor year for batting keepers. Kept well but struggled with the bat for most of the year.

 

[Spark]

Would give Green a bowl here. Hazlewood looks a little tired.

 

[Kraken]

Cider give yourself the ball

 

[quincywagstaff]

Quality new ball bowling by Starc.

 

[Kraken]

Oh damn - well batted Hodge

 

[Burgey]

Quality new ball bowling by Starc.

Took a good ball to get rid of him

 

[Spark]

Getting a ton of lift off the deck suddenly, didn't seem like he was with the first ball

Blundell's had a few good moments, probably should've been him
