They weren't in good form to do that anyway outside of Smith who was very unlucky to get out. Head and Carey who are in form are showing how it's done.

Smith seems to be unlucky a lot lately, it's one of his current forms of dismissal

 

[Magma]

plus, have they forgotten they're down a bowler. ideally for mine they'd have 300 on the board. i reckon they can chase 250, all rain dependent of course

India might bat again in this match afterall. Today was an opportunity for the batsmen who could do with some runs to get some form confidence with Melbourne in mind and its been wasted.

We are clearly trying to set them a target to try and win. We’re not doing it well but there has been no indication that we sent people out to “get some confidence”

 

[Iceman!]

Pathetic approach this, draw still heavy favourites but you are doing all this so you can have a go at them with 2 quick bowlers.

 

[Carn The Berries]

Well it's obvious now, we're going after the W.

No fly in the greater Brisbane area is safe with this swatting

 

[It Just Is]

Crazy batting to score at 4 an over

[NYRB]

Still got a Hard-on for MM I see.

I dont hate him. I applauded him after he won AB Medal. But he lied to the Australian public when he said he was capable of bowling overs to the media pre-game. Cummins would have gone to him, if he had the chance. Not buying into the theory , Cummins didnt want to give him the ball this game. Cummins look knackered by the end of yesterday.

At least they’ve had a winners mindset I guess, just haven’t executed it well.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Surely Marsh can’t play next test Webster in if you need the bowling.

Konstas in for McSweeney.

If it wasn’t for the changes already you would say drop Lab for Inglis to.

I'd much rather drop Labs instead and put McSweeney at #3.

 

[catters_28]

Just turned the TV on.

Wtf is going on.

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Haha hope they bowl us out and chase it down.


Might get some changes to this team.

Commentators said that they wouldn’t make changes… back the boys in

 

[Bedi]

Can't believe i am spending my last day off before Christmas watching this shit

it's turning into a pretty intriguing game however

 

[010203]

Why give him a commentary gig then

JOBS FOR THE BOYS

Brad Haddin and Brett Lee are mates with Brad McNamara, who has a key role at Fox Cricket.

 

[SSwans2011]

Chill out folks, it's going to absolutely piss down in an hour or so. We could declare now and India won't get anywhere near it.

 

[MisterMarcus]

What talent exactly has mcsweeney shown ?

He's been the best and most consistent bat in the Shield for the past couple of seasons.

He's batted the entire series in some of the toughest conditions you can face as an opener.

He hasn't made a massive score but he has done an okay job at blunting the new ball and allowing Head and co to come in when conditions are easier.

 

[ABAB]

Crazy batting to score at 4 an over

Just like T20 and One Day, wickets slow RR.

 

[Grumpyshades]

South Australians to the rescue as always, where would you lot be without us?

you guys are important..You save WA being joined to the eastern states

 

[Dazza the Viking]

It’s going to be a draw

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

Just turned the TV on.

Wtf is going on.

I came here to ask the same thing.. what in the ****...

 

[Smoooothy]

shot!

 

[k31th]

beautifully struck from Cummins

 

[ptrg]

WHAMMY!!

 

[Westend]

Surely you don't drop McSweeney and keep an out of form 38 year old.

Sydney stays tuggs

This too order issue has been happening for some time it’s been consistent and a pattern

Marnus too go for me

Mitch bad form in comes Webster

Three changes

Marnus out for Inglis
Mitch out webster
Hazelwood out for boland

Would love to see Konstas but reckon they will give ussie one more and debut Konstats in Sydney

But change needs to happen
