*Official* World Test Championship Final 2021

[Arachnodouche]

He was a tailender for a good 4 years before turning it around a few months ago. Looks bad today though.

So hard to hold your shape though in these conditions, even when you're a proper batsman. Be happy if he shows the same grit and pain threshhold from the Aus tour.

Isa Guha sounds less enthusiastic than Rahane's mum would be rn

 

[Burner]

He was a bunny for a good 4 years before turning it around a few months ago. Looks bad today though.

But before he was a bunny, he used to average around 37 IIRC, at his peak

My panties dropping after that Wagner wicket might have put the earth out of orbit slightly

 

[OverratedSanity]

coz these batsman can actually bat away from home.

[X] doubt

250 is more than enough here. Wait and watch

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yessss....look forward to the day other teams fans start complaining about Gabba 2021 being talked about too often.

 

[wpdavid]

One more wicket and we'll get to watch the big three bat

Nice 'This is us' reference?

 

[harsh.ag]

Ball racism being discussed

 

[Teja.]

Pratters made some good points about this game yesterday tbh.

 

[h_hurricane]

Some decent batting yesterday ensured that this isn't 82/6. It would have been game over in that case.

A fighting chance here if our bowling lives up to the reputation.

 

[Burner]

India gets to 250 and it'll be honours even imo. Not easy to bat.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

hah, no wonder the women's Test was a bit duller, they somehow used a Kookaburra

Do we think the India seamers will have control with all this movement on offer?

 

[trundler]

Boult will waste the new ball

Shami and Ishant have bowled well enough in England in the past, can see them being a handful. Bumrah an all-conditions threat, should be interesting to see.

Are you sure that was why

Shami hasnt done that hot. Usually bowls a tad shot for these kind of conditions and has the capability of a 0-90 type spell which in a low scoring game can be disastrous.

 

[Arachnodouche]

I'd almost be tempted to send Jadeja ahead of Pant in these conditions.

 

[hendrix]

Boult will waste the new ball

Don't think he was far off tbf. Ashwin flicking off middle stump should keep him interested

well true England was playing too
