Why are we bowling so short ffs

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Boland, no ball aside, is bowling very well here.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Why are we bowling so short ffs

Boland is bowling fairly full

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Boland is bowling fairly full

Still to short in my opinion. If the ball aint hitting the stumps you are to short

 

[zumahawk]

Good pitch for test cricket. Aussies started well but only 1 wicket.

 

[Swanny69]

Should be Ussie's last series if he doesn't make runs

Sydney featherbed will save him..

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Come on, show more Kohli, otherwise we may forget who he is.

 

[Leeda]

I will be gladly to espouse my pukkah friends who never fail to give me great joy

 

[new breed]

Uussie shouldn't be in first slip , best fielder position.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Still to short in my opinion. If the ball aint hitting the stumps you are to short

Bowling on a good length with the odd fuller ball, much fuller and it’s a half volley

 

[TY24]

Still to short in my opinion. If the ball aint hitting the stumps you are to short

Very, very simplistic view of test match bowling.

 

[hawkman]

Keeper and slip cordon not inspiring much confidence

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Need some height in the Gully. Green would have stopped that

 

[dumb]

Is this a road that's ruining test cricket yet?

 

[hawkman]

11 overs in an hour!

Very, very simplistic view of test match bowling.

Nothing to do with Test match bowling in general. There is enough assistance in this pitch with the new ball to not be wasted being pitched back of a length.

 

[010203]

11 overs bowled in the first hour.

 

[Westend]

so josh inglis gets flown to sydney to play for WA but webster, abbott and doggett (the last two of which were never ever going to play) now have to sit on their arse for a week instead of playing shield

ridiculous

yup typical CA

See what the score is at Tea. or dinner? whatever they call the second break in these day night matches.

 

[new breed]

This road could turn square on day 4&5 .

Cummins and Boland aren’t really bowling back of a length.

 

[chriso11]

first ever Swiss cheese slips cordon

 

[Westend]

yeah just average by australia apart from the first ball

bowling timid....not a single bouncer so far

fielding pathetic usman just a liability just get him off the field

Cummins needs to stand up ....just going through the motions...he is fresh

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

It's not a road, it's seaming

Our bowling has just been shit
