3rd Test Border Gavaskar Trophy December 14-18 1050hrs @ The Gabba

[Crankyhawk]

So we reach a drinks break. We have had only 10 ****ing overs. This is pisspoor by the Australians. Should be 14 to 15 in an hour

 

[Andronicus]

Has batted beautifully

Especially after the blow to his wrist. Imagine that would be pretty painful this morning.

Well it looks like Hazlewood wont be back for Boxing Day one thinks.

Welcome down Scotty Boland!

 

[Bedi]

Even if passed fit to play the fact Boland had him covered made playing Hazlewood unnecessarily risky. It's a decision that will likely cost us the game.

Boland was always playing anyway in Melbourne

 

[Moonwatcher]

Has India electing to bowl first given them control over the draw (should they be good enough)?

Welcome down Scotty Boland!

He is done for the series

It is still poor but drinks was after 50 minutes

 

[Aussie pie]

The selection of Hazelwood just proves that the NSW boys club will out vote even the fitness staff. At least now we know which bowler misses out Boxing Day so that Boland can play.

Josh was told it was a low grade strain and that at a pinch he cud've played in Adelaide.

Yeah and Bigfoot is real.

2 drinks breaks every 40ish, extended first session.

 

[DaRick]

We always somehow hobble ourselves when we play against IND.

Hazelwood isn't coming back?

 

[Coasters7]

Selectors to blame for this. Plenty of options to give Hazlewood another game off but they keep going with the same blokes at whatever cost

 

[danielnajdek]

Hazelwood isn't coming back?

He went off the ground after the drinks break. Survive bowling 1 over. I’d say his cooked.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Only just a no ball

No it doesn't LMFAO... It shows he passed a fitness test and has now re injured himself. It happens all the time in sport.

Not everything is a big conspiracy theory. They picked him because they thought he was right to go, looks like they got it wrong.

 

[Antzzz]

Surprise surprise CA !....let's play injured bowlers....now let's see them leave Boland out now

 

[Gough]

Hey Gough is it too early to mention Charlie Bannerman?

Not at all, already crossed my mind. He's at 64.30 right now.

 

[outabounds]

Let's see how fit Marsh is now

Series

 

[nobbyiscool]

Ugh, that injury makes me so angry. It was completely unnecessary, there was no need to rush him back.

Watch Marsh go down today as well cos he has to bowl a few overs.
