Why are they tired? You’ve bowled 71 overs in 2 days and been off the ground all day

80 humidity, india looked cooked too with many of the players living in that type of heat

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Not having the third seamer is costing Australia big time.

 

[hawkman]

Going to be a bit tired with the new ball if we do enforce the follow on.

Marsh and Marnus to take the new ball

 

[Bedi]

Hope the Smith drop doesn't bite us now.

we all knew it would dammit

 

[Jimthegreat]

Get the long on to mid on.

The 2 quicks? You're joking, aren't you?

 

[western royboy]

A lot of soft England ones in the third.

The NZ dismissals were soft Ravindra comes to mind repeatedly. The English dismissals I would say were more reckless.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Dont think he gets a look-in this side , if Cam Green was fit.

Aussies wouldnt have minded a few overs from an all rounder type here.

Maybe. Green would've been ahead of him. I think they would've forced a way to keep Marsh in by either opening him or Marnus and sliding everyone up

 

[Marshland]

Lyon bowling around the wicket to the legs and we have nobody at mid on….

Dumb defensive typical Lyon of bowling into the pads from around the wicket.

 

[danielnajdek]

biggest issue for the aussies is the fact is marsh not bowling is a big problem .

Another we picked that isn't fit.

Bowling 71 overs in 2 days, is harder work than batting for 60+ overs in a test match.

Bowling pace is more taxing on the body.

The last time India were asked to follow on was at The Oval in 2011

It's hot and humid as **** too

 

[Bedi]

bowlin Nathan

 

[madjoe]

imo he will be the first dropped out of this team for Sri lanka

Ollie Dope managed to outdo Duckett as the worst shot of the year

 

[dogs105]

Dropping sitters being costly. Who'd have thought?

 

[Moonwatcher]

Boland would have 3 by now

 

[TigerCraig]

Should be a short mid on and mid off esp going round the wicket

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yep leave the cover open it’s what you want as an offie

 

[NYRB]

Starc earns around 2.4 million Aussie dollars in the IPL bowling half of the amount overs in a season in the IPL. Starc has bowled 24 overs today. No wonder he looks grumpy today- its been a hard days work. Has had to earn his dough.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Dropping sitters being costly. Who'd have thought?

Dropped Rahul first ball of the day and selected Hazelwood over Boland. Hard to overcome that level of disadvantage.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

I'd expect Head to open in Sri Lanka like he did in India, so I'm expecting Marsh to stay in the middle order unless McSweeney makes himself unstoppable in the next couple of innings

 

[TigerCraig]

Put a ****ing short mid off in, it's a free run every ball

 

[Jimthegreat]

Geez, where's the mid off. We have to save runs as well as get wickets
