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

[Aussie pie]

Something is going on with him he is usually well composed at this stage of his career.

Seems like the media have really rattled him

Or he’s just being a normal flog as usual.

 

[Cmarsh]

How did these campaigners only bowl 25 overs in a session when Jadeja bowled a handful?

Well they were chasing alot of leather.

 

[Around the Wicket]

did Konstas make 60 or 260?
judging by the hype from both tv networks I’d swear it was the latter.
it was a good knock but can we chill out a little please.

Apart from Head the top order has averaged;

McSweeney - 14.40
Khawaja - 20.20 (this not out has boosted that)
Labs - 18.80
Smith - 24.80
Head - 81.80
Marsh - 13.80

so it’s been a tough series for the batsmen

 

[Gough]

A lot of people looked at Dave Warner at the start of his career and said he can't keep that up over time too.

 

[F6Typhoon]

Check Englands record since Baz Ball began....that gives you an indication of the sustainability of it.

Certainly improved tv ratings though? Test cricket was heading the way of the dodo before bazball

Because their bowlers were getting campaignered everywhere by a 12y/o lol

 

[Andronicus]

Virat Kohli is a ****ing disgrace, the blokes a grub and it’s a reflection of his character how he has carried on

Indian Cricket Council will see he is commended for it though.

 

[Cmarsh]

Funny how it's all the NSW people talking the innings up.

Ponting, Langer, Blewett all talked it up. Are they from NSW?

 

[MisterB]

Clearly, none of the tourists received a copy of laws of the game of cricket or code of conduct for Christmas.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Played some phenomenal shots and faced 10 overs.

Exciting at the time and promising for the future.

Not close to the pantheon of cricket memories.

Its to late the hysterics are full out in force.

People need to calm down on him you hear heaps of flak especially on here about bazball then full on heap praise for a streaky 50

 

[Around the Wicket]

A lot of people looked at Dave Warner at the start of his career and said he can't keep that up over time too.

Australian pitches he certainly did but his away record wasn’t the best

 

[SSwans2011]

Settle down. Few of us here are happy to give him credit but are cautious with his future. Unlike a number on here and each of them in the commentary box.

But why are we fixating on long-term sustainability after he's played one good innings? He went out with a plan and it worked. Maybe he can adjust his game style where required.

Ponting, Langer, Blewett all talked it up. Are they from NSW?

Mark Waugh and Skull were having orgasms over him on Fox.

 

[The 747]

Certainly improved tv ratings though? Test cricket was heading the way of the dodo before bazball

No it wasn't.

 

[hawkman]

Akash looks a better bowler than Siraj. Has bowled a lot better than his figures in this series

 

[Plugger35]

Ch7 still showing replays off the Kohli bump on Konstas, it's time to move on, I still haven't seen a replay of his dismissal yet.

Focus on the cricket game you clowns, they do the same with the AFL, they focus more on MRP incidents rather than the game.

It's infuriating.

 

[nobbyiscool]

Channel 7 have come straight back to this Kohli issue...

I know it's a bad look, I know he's a petulant bully, I think he'll be charged and ultimately get a slap on the wrist.

But it's the culmination of a pretty dirty week for Kohli, I think it'd be a shame if his last trip to Australia ends in him being a sook and everyone booing him for it.

 

[Around the Wicket]

India have missed Shami this series, to much on Bumrahs shoulders

 

[danielnajdek]

Certainly improved tv ratings though? Test cricket was heading the way of the dodo before bazball

Bazball is dodo.

 

[Run n Spread]

This is terrible cricket all round after lunch. Aussie batters showing no intent.
Horrendous captaincy and field placement from India. Just sticking it outside off with a deep offside field hoping for a nick won't happen. Bowl at the stumps. Mix it up

 

[Around the Wicket]

Must be expensive for little return to set up the flying fox when they only show it few times a day.

 

[Doctor Feel]

BOULEVARD OF BEWILDERMENT

 

[Joffaboy]

Konstas was great but he is out now, concentrate on the play please.

This is everything wrong with modern cricket commentary. They milk it until it is tedious.
Oh piss off Fleming the Boulevard of Bullshit from you

[Outtatym]

Ch7 still showing replays off the Kohli bump on Konstas, time to move on, I still haven't seen a replay of his dismissal yet.

Focus on the actual cricket you clowns.

How anyone watches channel 7 for footy or cricket is beyond me.
