What's your point. It was still a shit shot. He got lucky he didn't drag it on.
 
He should have stayed back home. I just don't see what he offers the lndian team, except making it a difficult job for the match committee to tell him he's dropped for the Brisbane test....

Rohit is still very good tactically and a good leader which can't be underestimated but you would have to question if he's still in their best 6/7 batters anymore I don't think he is.

I haven’t been to a LOT of live cricket - half a dozen SCG tests and about the same number of one dayers (the travails of a single dad living in country NSW) but was at the SCG* for Warner’s century before lunch, and watched most of Younus Khan’s century in response the next day which was a genuinely classy knock, saw the arse end of Tendulkar’s 242 at Sydney or whatever it was but the highlight at that test was Dravid hitting 90 in quick time when India had to chase quick runs in the second innings to push the game along.

Sharma hit a century in a losing cause in a one dayer a few years ago in an odi that I watched that was ultimately fruitless but in isolation was a brilliant innings.


*we spent the morning at the Captain Cook and walked into the ground just in time to see Warner’s shot to bring up the century 😅😅
I made a last minute decision to come back to sin city for the ODI on New Years Day…to say it was fortuitous was an understatement.
 
There are literally 2 girls I’m aware of that commentate that I’ve listened to extensively commentating the Indian cricket team so, ooh, wow, she’s up against Ali Mitchell.

Oooh no, an Indian-descended cricket commentator who is a girl is a bigger fan girl than a non Indian descended cricket commentator who is also a girl.

Wow, what are the chances?

FMD
Doesn't mean she's not terrible at it.

I remember her calling the Ashes and would drop Kohli into the conversation at every opportunity.

Your hatred of Australia and gushing over Isa mean you are neither balanced nor holding an opinion I give a shit about.
 
Would be nervous if we have to chase something close to 200.
If this pair survives the opening hour tomorrow, good chance they can string a big partnership.

Where have I gushed over her? Disagreeing with your irrational teeth-gnashing doesn’t equate to gushing, pal.

You don’t even know what you’re arguing about.

Hatred of Australia? What the f**k has that got to do with anything?

I’ve spent most of the last hour flogging over Starc and Cummins’ bowling some superb deliveries.

Actually, speaking of irrational

Get a grip mate 😅😅😅

Rohit Sharma - Test Batting Average

Not Captain: 46.87
As Captain: 32.42
 
"How good"

I can't take the credit for that, it's a quote from the great Ch7 commentator Trent Copeland who shortened "How good is that".

The cricket commentary standards have slipped since Richie, Bill, Ian and Tony called it quits, even Max would be an improvement
 
Pretty rubbish series. 2 tests in and both are decided by day 3.

Either the pitches have been curated too much towards the bowlers (fast bowlers) or the batsmen on both sides are just average outside of an innings here and there.

There’s no partnerships. No building your innings and no contest really between bat and ball.
