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

[Patron]

This innings feels like a bit of a lost opportunity. We had a chance to really put them on the back foot with this coin toss and a good start from the openers. A couple poor dismissals have really let us down.

So why are some choosing given names? That's pretty much what I'm asking.

Personal preference

 

[philreich]

Only once since 1965 has Australia made 300 batting first, and lost.

 

[k31th]

another one hits the box... Steve Smith this time

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Akash has bowled well in both tests. Been unlucky not to get more

Certainly a better new ball option than Siraj.

 

[FreoRicci]

Might not even make 350 from 2/222.
When will harsh calls be made? Marsh is junk.

 

[Plugger35]

Another blow to the jatz.

Tim Lane saying it was to the right thigh then Ponting saying it was more central than that.

 

[Neese]

To be honest I reckon he’s bowled pretty well

He has all series imo.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

That's delayed pain too

 

[PoopingHindi]

That's only the 2nd wicket where we didn't get ourselves out. First was actually Konstas.

he missed a straight one

 

[Joffaboy]

No we don't. 300+ in Australia is never disappointing.

It's not an easy wicket. Two heights, moving.
Jageja having a laugh at Smudges expense LOL.

I forget who said it, but someone mentioned recently that, given a world XI opening attack of Marshall, Ambrose and Bumrah, there'd be an argument that Bumrah should open the bowling.

I'd still take McGrath.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Indians have done a good job hitting the sack today

 

[LukeParkerno1]

We love getting whacked in the nuts

 

[Around the Wicket]

Only once since 1965 has Australia made 300 batting first, and lost.

Is that in Australia or world wide?

 

[Jimthegreat]

Good tactics by Smith getting hit in the nuts. Wastes time until stumps...lol.

 

[hawkman]

That's delayed pain too

Making sure Bumrah only gets one more over tonight

 

[philreich]

Is that in Australia or world wide?

Sorry I meant at the MCG.

 

[hawkman]

Is that in Australia or world wide?

MCG

 

[FreoRicci]

Great knock Carey. Played his role to.a tee. Scored a crisp 30 leading into the 2nd new ball and built momentum where Australia are now on top. Played a selfless team first knock.
Exactly what you want from a keeper

Would be better coming in off Marsh and Head getting 30 each.

 

[Neese]

Leave their nuts alone.

 

[dumb]

indians hitting a good length eh smudge

 

[Joffaboy]

Judd , Cousins , Kerr , Embley, they just had the better midfield/team.

Some A grade users of illicit substances in that list.

That's a nut ball... great commentary from Smith.

 

[Chuckie357]

Yeah that's getting a lot out. Didn't do much wrong.

Wait for it….its coming….”Inglis in”
