Road to India in Australia 2024-25

[centurymaker]

India are a great team who had two bad games in a row. No team with Pant and Bumrah are losing 5 tests in a row

lol they are about to lose 3-0 in a three game series at home for the first time in 60 years.

First Test line-up

1. Khawaja
2. McSweeney
3. Labushagne
4. Smith
5. Head
6. Marsh
7. Carey

It's looking way beyond India...

Although we may be 0-100 off 50 overs

Inglis needs to push himself up the order asap

 

[Qlder]

So India just got flogged 3-0 at home by New Zealand. Couldn't have asked for better prep for a 5 test Aussie series away

India now drops to 2nd in WTC, with a loss in the BGT dropping them out of the WTC Final

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well India won't make the final and Australia will possibly end the careers of Rohit, Kohli and Ashwin in the next few months.

Glorious.

 

[honestbharani]

wonder what has flustered fj this much. Maybe the Lords 2021 test got to you, mate?

 

[Daemon]

It’s understandable and tbh there’s nothing wrong with sticking the boot in. We laugh at England bazballing their way to not even being featured in that screenshot all the time.

 

[Arachnodouche]

I hope BCCI's conducting some backdoor diplomacy with CA. Wonder what sort of pitches we could even ask for now...can these guys bat on '14-style roads at least?

Either way, this Kiwiwash has livened up the Road To Australia, if for nothing else then as a slowly unfolding car crash or a bullet to the brain. I fully expect to see chunks and spatter.

 

[Test fan]

India will lost not because Australia is strong ( They are same team like last BGT or even become slightly weaker) but indian team regressed badly and playing expired players like Rohit and Virat .

Glorious.

England somehow getting humiliated 4-1 by this bunch of losers deserves a deep scientific study tbh.

Australia players are also Mediocre on a bowlers friendly pitches . They were not crossed 200 runs marks ( first Two test ) before flat sydney pitch in Last BGT.

I dont. I think the principles of Bazball has merit when you play it right.

Either way, it was noticeable only coz it was all over and even had a thread locked. That much is more than mere "laugh at the losers" thing.

Hopefully at least two of those get dropped before then.

lol they had mathew wade, joe burns and tim paine in the last BG so maybe it's better not posting posts from your backside. Australia also white washed nz away from home in their most recent test series

 

[Starfighter]

I think one thing's clear from the India-NZ series, which is that Pant is still going to be a massive threat with the bat and our bowlers are going to need better plans than ones such as 'Starc bowling assorted rubbish' that were previously used.

 

[Burgey]

If Aus hadn't been docked those ten points for slow over rates we could have just gone and played golf this summer instead of bothering playing cricket and still made the WTC final.

 

[Qlder]

^ Yeah that's what I find funny about the WTC. The very first matches of the new cycle were the Ashes and Eng and Aus got massive penalties in first 2 matches for slow over rates. They then changed the rules because penalties that significant made playing WTC pointless.

How come they didn't revise the penalties on those first 2 games so that they followed the new rules that every other test followed?

Sad to hear Rohit and Virat have both died.

Commiserations for your loss.

England don't want to be in that screenshot anyway because the WCT is a joke! Bazball is a deliberate protest against featuring in the WCT. Oh, and England have a girlfriend that we've never seen that they met while they were on holiday in another place that is heaps hotter than the WCT anyway.
