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

[Cleavy]

good thing we played an all-rounder in this situation... what do you mean he has only bowled 2 overs?!

 

[dogs105]

Dropped Rahul first ball of the day and selected Hazelwood over Boland.

Injury just unlucky (if it's a different injury).

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yeah this short ball tactic is so fantastic

 

[JimmyBC]

Jeez they must be getting hungry they've been out there for awhile now.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Field setting is ridiculous. He shares my genetics but obviously not my brains...lol

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Oh, and let's show Kohli for the 500th time today, he's done so much in this match.

 

[hawkman]

Cummins can barely get it above hip high but still trying the short ball tactic

 

[Coasters7]

One thing we’ve never done well is be able to switch up momentum with the ball. Especially late in innings.

Very good over the course over the match when the other side is also trying to win but garbage when we hold the initiative and need a killer blow.

 

[madjoe]

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

sadly i think you are right but marsh is the type you can't keep picking on trust just doesn't have the game, McSweeney bowls handy off spin too i'd rather that in Sri lanka

 

[Magma]

playing injured players bites again. cummins looks exhausted

 

[hawkman]

Why not give Marsh a bowl?

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Is there a reason why Marsh can't bowl a few overs?

 

[TigerCraig]

About time

 

[Visions]

My kingdom for a yorker.

Why do they always insist on bowling tripe to the tail?

 

[Plugger35]

The Indian openers would be sweating on every run right now and praying they don't have to go in to bat tonight.

 

[Jimthegreat]

These bloody field placings. Costing runs!

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

All on the ******* selectors.
Hazelwood should never have played, and Webster should’ve been picked as an allrounder as Marsh is not fit enough to bowl 20+ overs a day.

 

[Westend]

These bloody field placings. Costing runs!

Draw Jim

 

[Golumless]

Yeah, even if we got Akash/Bumrah now, Cummins and Starc are off a long spell. Would be hard going to get any inroads into India top order with the new ball.

 

[TY24]

We can’t enforce the follow on while being a bowler down in these conditions. Cummins looks genuinely cooked.

 

[dogs105]

Bring on Trav

 

[Westend]

akash is better bat than sharma

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Why is Marsh in the team again?
Two cooked fast bowlers and one useless all rounder that they don’t trust to bowl. Add to the fact he hasn’t scored runs and I ask the question, Why is Marsh in the team?

 

[Marshland]

FFS.

We don't deserve to bowl again.

 

[Westend]

We can’t enforce the follow on while being a bowler down in these conditions. Cummins looks genuinely cooked.

Only way we can win
