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

[TubbsFarquhar]

What will be a good minimum lead?

320, I can't see that being reached though.

 

[Outtatym]

Cummins batting for a draw? refusing the single...

Bumrah has got him out 8 times or something in tests. Scared of him

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Seems a little unnecessary to be farming the strike from Cummins. He looks more comfortable than most of our batsman but I guess anything to survive the Bumrah spell

 

[LukeParkerno1]

What will be a good minimum lead?

280

 

[jannissary]

What total are we all realistically hoping for with the current state of affairs, 250-275?

seeing out the day. score doesn’t matter so long as it’s down to day 5

Why aren’t we taking singles? Cummins can bat.

He’s anchored at the non strikers end for Bumrah and not moving an inch. Bizarre when you consider he came out to face the music in the second innings in Perth ahead of Marnus

 

[k31th]

well, if that's the intention for Labs to face almost every delivery, that worked well...

 

[archereleven]

Every ball is a hand grenade this innings.

Watch our boys bowl pies on a road in the 4th.

Written all over it.

Take the runs you peanut brain

At 31 and averages under 40 - I’m not playing him.

It should be based on his last 2-3 years, his average would be closer to 50. Used to average high 20s about 5 years ago.

At this moment ..you are probably right

 

[k31th]

excellent fifty Marnus Labuschagne

 

[Riviat]

We should just have Marsh open. If he lasts an over, that's one less over our real openers have to face

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

We just assumed it was going to happen, theyve hunted - big difference

Is that way so many of our wickets are caught off mistakes while theirs are clean bowled or lbw

 

[Crankyhawk]

scrappy 50 by labs but a shit tonne better than any of the other bats

 

[troybe]

Good batting Marnie keep fighting

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

It should be based on his last 2-3 years, his average would be closer to 50. Used to average high 20s about 5 years ago.

He's made 2 centuries this year from memory in shield cricket. That's good enough form to be playing.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Ugly
Lucky

But any which way you can is fine at present

 

[010203]

An extremely important 50 from Marnus.

 

[SSwans2011]

Wonder how old mate who popped in here yesterday to big-note himself for punting on the draw on day 2 is feeling right now

 

[PhatBoy]

Take the runs you peanut brain

Not sure if that was directed at Cummins or Marnus but it was Cummins who said no

 

[JimmyBC]

This is a decent ugly runs innings from Marnus considering his teammates have all been skittled.

 

[Bulldogs85]

Well deserved 50 from Labuschagne

Disagree...Runs matter in this situation
