Certified Legendary Thread 4th Test Border Gavaskar Trophy December 26-30 1000hrs @ the MCG

[SparklingAle69]

Wicket this over

 

[kenneje]

Yup, swing and seam movement. Need to get through the first 10 overs

2 down, 8 to go.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

We just need to think of it as Bumrah has maybe 8 overs might be 6 in this heat just get through it

 

[JuniorWatch]

Aussies batters have a clear tactical change here.
Trying to hit the ball hasnt worked all series.
Let's try not hitting the ball but look like we're trying to/

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Konstas faced these bowlers in the Australia A game and did very well.

Bumrah didn't play that game.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Leaving well in this first hour will be crucial

 

[Outtatym]

Konstas looking like a walking wicket currently.

To be fair so does his mate

 

[adogsfan5]

Where’s the scorecard on the bottom of screen..?

 

[SC_Power]

Looks like a deliberate effort to play inside the line, protect against the ball seaming in?

 

[Moonwatcher]

LFG

 

[FullyBigKPro]

13 deliveries and nothing has hit the bat yet...

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Off the mark!

 

[Pure_Ownage]

He’d be lasting as long as the other openers and he is terrible in other facets (ie fielding)

Maybe but I understand the idea of protecting kids from this and not ruining their careers.

 

[Moonwatcher]

And couldn't get off strike

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

First runs young man!

 

[SC_Power]

 

[Neese]

Eek this is stressful to watch
Yay runs

 

[k31th]

off the mark, a fantastic milestone to reach on debut

 

[danielnajdek]

Konstas faced these bowlers in the Australia A game and did very well.

Not Bumrah. Guy is 5 levels above any of the other quicks India have.

 

[Scorpus]

Runs!

 

[madjoe]

He’d be lasting as long as the other openers and he is terrible in other facets (ie fielding)

rather a bloke who is 30 failing then a 19 year old,

 

[The 747]

We score!

 

[kenneje]

GOOD BOY! Pressure release.

 

[Plugger35]

Konstas off the mark, he will be breathing a sigh of relief, no duck on debut now.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Mark Waugh seems keen to downplay Siraj's series - 'okay' 'reasonable'.

Don't his series stats match those of the Aussie seamers? Bet the platitudes would be a lot stronger for them.
