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

[NYRB]

From Cricinfo

11.16am The stumps are being nailed in now. Gnasher informs me that the game will restart at 11.25am local. Lunch will be taken at 12.45pm. And there are a minimum of 84.1 overs remaining.


I guess thats a little win for India, anytime lost now is a godsend for them.

Missed it...Was it a difficult chance?

Even Nic Natainui would have taken it. Absolute dolly.

Grundy would've dropped it though.

Hazlewood has been described as having "calf awareness" whatever the f*** that means.

He’s aware that he owns a baby cow?

 

[Underarm]

I don’t get why they don’t innovate in cricket when it comes to wet weather. Start days play much earlier,

they already do.

have a 6th day as reserve if you have a washout,

They dont want 4th or 5th days of tests because they lose money. Theyre not adding a 6th.

even play at a backup stadium under a roof if the weather is bad. Sure it will cost money but will it cost a days lost ticket and TV revenue ? Not sure

Where? 1 stadium in the country has a roof. Should we play all tests at the MCG.

You could almost bet Jadeja will do something to thwart Australia. He's made a career of it.

 

[Nuggetz]

Rohit is only keeping his spot through captaincy. Egos are too big to drop him mid series. Hope he has one final good innings left.

 

[Grumpyshades]

And England fall agonisingly 424 runs short of an famous victory.

you forgot to adjust for 'morality'

 

[Jimthegreat]

First time I've seen that Smith drop. How do you drop that at that level? Cost 41 already.

 

[Charlie_s123]

Just saw the replay. Geez that was shit from smith.

 

[Nuggetz]

Boland at the MCG will be fkd. Might get sell outs on Day 2 & 3 (if it lasts lol)

 

[Bedi]

Can’t they just bring out the magic spray

Where's Hooter when you need him

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Who was it saying Boland won’t get another game?

 

[Jimthegreat]

That drop, with one bowler down, means we probably can't enforce the follow on in such conditions. If he caught him we have run through most of them by now.

 

[Westend]

But hang on i thought the selectors messed up picking the clearly still injured Hazlewood because they hate Victoria and Boland and it is a NSW boys club...

Morning everyone

Yeah boys club selection biting them in the arse . Going into a test with an underdone bowler poor by Australia

 

[NYRB]

That Sam Curran look-a-like in the crowd. He must be loaded to be able to travel around the world at most Australian cricket matches.

 

[Westend]

Who was it saying Boland won’t get another game?

Might be the end for haze for a while out of the mcg test can’t play him in Sydney and don’t need him in Sri Lanka

Put him in cotton wool until the ashes next year for me

 

[Hawksboy72]

Kayo keeps showing that Maccas 'Hawaiian Range' ad throughout the rain interval- must admit it looks tempting.

Wife had one a few days ago...no plans for a 2nd helping.

I hate Jadeja. He kills us every time with the bat.

 

[Gough]

I hate Jadeja. He kills us every time with the bat.

[Crankyhawk]

[Lebbo73]
