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

[Moonwatcher]

6/311 with Cummins/Smith at the crease. Would have taken that at the start of the day.

Quality day of cricket good stuff

I've defended Kohli in the past, but to deliberately change his path to shoulder a 19 year old is pretty pathetic.

He probably stole lunch money off disabled kids in his school days like Steven Seagal.

Neil Craig's obsession with that (and Ben Cousins have a sniff in the Footy Park bogs at half time in the Prelim allegedly) probably cost the Crows a flag.

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

And missing out on a home Prelim final in in 2005 was very costly.

 

[Cmarsh]

311 a great score on day one especially considering Head's duck.

Nice sly dig at Kohli just before stumps by Skull. Shastri says, "What do you think will be the headline tomorrow morning?"

Skull says, "Stay in your lane."

 

[Black Diamond]

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

At Melbourne or ever?

2003 Adelaide oval stands out.

Must be at MCG

Thanks

One of Robert Harvey's very best games.

I'd have taken 6/311 all day with our batting line up. Obviously could have been better with the method of dismissal but at 6/311 beggars can't be choosers. Take it all day.

Bar the Brisbane 2nd innings when our bowlers barely seemed interested in getting to the bowling crease India have gone nowhere near that all summer.

I remember Perth 75/76 where we made 325 then Roy Fredericks went berserk with 169 from 147 balls. They declared at 585 then Roberts ran though us to lose by an innings.

311 ahead is significant. Smith get to 100 and push to 400. India will do nothing but defend when they bat.

 

[imagifED]

Idk if we'll be able to take 20 wickets on this pitch.

 

[Chism]

Good first day.

Anything North of 350 is decent batting first on this pitch as you dont wanna be batting last chasing.

Head back in form

Kohli: Media need to leave me alone.
Next minute, tomorrow’s front page.

Stay classy.

I very much doubt Jaiswal and Rishabh would do that

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

Batted out the day, big positive!

 

[Art Vandelay_]

87,242. good crowd that

That's a Vic crowd. Not a Perf crowd

 

[Leap of Faith]

I think I detest the Indians more than the Poms.

 

[Mick F]

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

And it is a fair point. If that is their preferred name it is what the commentators and scoreboard attendants should be using.

India did well to keep the Australian total to under 600.

Yep don't mind his approach but he was like the Aussies of old who he stuck it up. Gave but couldn't take.
Now a young aggressive Aussie gets in the face of Bumerah and takes a game on and he couldn't handle it and went too far. 1 test minimum imo.
Funny how things go full circle

That's a Perth test.
