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

[Plugger35]

Copeland saying a rare dropped catch from Smith, surely he has watched enough cricket to know he drops them more than rarely.

 

[Ekomaira]

would've been some catch

 

[Coasters7]

Indias first time past 80 overs in 7 innings and a severely out of form Australian batting order making 470. Anyone still defending this pitch? Has basically zero wear halfway through day 3

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

There’s nothing wrong with the light FFS.

 

[hawkman]

A rare drop Trent? Didn’t he drop one last test?

He constantly drops them but pulls off enough spectacular ones for the commentators to think he is great slips catcher

 

[Doctor Feel]

Zzz

 

[k31th]

well fielded by Labs

Usually takes the hard ones and drops the dollies though

I'm not complaining, it will be nice to have a test go into Day 4 and maybe even Day 5 when the other tests have lasted 3 days.

A test should be good for batting on Day 3 anyway and it's not like there isn't something in it for the bowlers if they bowl well.

 

[Gethelred]

If you can leave the ball when it's new, the bowler is bowling too short.

 

[Costanza_]

Does Brayshaw get paid on commission per "Starc is dangerous with the new ball" comment?

 

[k31th]

well played, Nitish Kumar Reddy... good first fifty

 

[danielnajdek]

Nice pie from Starc

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Excellent 50 from Nitish.

 

[Plugger35]

Well batted Helen, a fine fifty.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Gutter trash from Starc.

 

[Crankyhawk]

wish reddy played for us, would be able to dump marsh

 

[philreich]

This guy is definitely Reddy at this level.

Its the tail. Once thing Australia is good at is bowling short to them, no matter what team it is.

 

[Cringle]

83 overs bowled.

Marsh had bowled 3.

83 overs bowled.

Marsh had bowled 3.

And they were powder puff overs as well.

Two bowling allrounders looking untroubled against a new ball on day is not a good look.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Doesn't really feel like there's a wicket coming here

 

[SC_Power]

This guy is definitely Reddy at this level.

As bad as my “India bats Deep all the way to 11” jokes

Kudos.
