Plenty banking on a draw or two here but surely it can't rain in Sydney again.

If we're allowed to change Smiths passport mid series we'll take him.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

How many of us have picked Smith for most catches? Must be a high %

 

[silentstriker]

If we're allowed to change Smoths passport mid series we'll take him.

Haha good catch - thank you! I changed some of my answers at last minute.

What does he bowl when he isn't keeping?

It's Sydney.

FFS I'm a moron. I'm not even drinking tonight. Apparently answering five word questions is too complicated for me.

Too late mate. I want to be the only one with Starc

Its a 5 test long series and anything can happen. Not that late

Horrible start for me on the Jaiswal call, but I'll take Hazelwood's and Australia's start.

 

[PaulLennon]

Horrible start for me on the Jaiswal call, but I'll take Hazelwood's and Australia's start.

What about now?

 

[Zinzan]

What about now?

Well happier with my Jaiswal call, not so much my prediction of Australia winning 5-0

 

[Silver Silva]

Test cricket is so unpredictable these days

 

[centurymaker]

This was my initial prediction (2-2 result) but after NZ result, I am expecting Aus to win, possibly comfortably.

Should have stuck with my original prediction of 2-2.

Australia should revert to relatively flatter pitches (or there'll be rain somewhere) leading to at least 1 draw. That would leave them needing to win 2 out of the 3 other tests which is really doable.

So Australia winning 2 and India winning 1 more with 1 draw - ending in 2-2 result - is not a bad outcome and is probably one of the more likely scorelines at the moment.
