Starc not exactly proving much against the theory that his efficacy diminishes as series’ go on. Familiar story.

Cannot play in Sydney

Well the top 3 made 230 which hasn’t happened in a while. Can’t remember there being too many play and misses after Konstas and runs have been flowing pretty easily until someone does something stupid (Pant).

Usually a good sign that the pitch is very true and you’re basically just sending them down hoping the batsmen has a brain fade

I'm not denying that it's been more of a batsman's pitch. But I also think the bowlers in general haven't performed well.

Some Aussie players who had been building form managed to deliver at the same time (just swap Ussie for Head), alongside a kid who served up something different.

India with this line up bat pretty Deep.

Not much more to it than that, given the bowlers have failed to step up.

 

[Visions]

Australia and the struggle to get the tail out continues unabated.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

It's back to shit Starc

It’s not a theory, it’s a statistical fact.

These guys are not the tail

 

[Doctor Feel]

RIGHT ARM POO

 

[The Lobbster]

Australia and the struggle to get the tail out continues unabated.

These blokes both average 50. Not exactly tailenders.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Lucky Kohli ran Jaiswal out.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Crazy running

 

[Mr Meow]

Lucky Kohli ran Jaiswal out.

Given how India run between the wickets, I'd say it's unlucky we've only had one run out.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

These guys are not the tail

Reddy could bat in the Top 5.

Sundar not far off it.

 

[Xtreme]

SHOT

 

[Moonwatcher]

Fox-ray

 

[Magma]

fox ray is so pointless

 

[Chuckie357]

Starc deadset wasting the new ball.

Standard

 

[Dom PC]

Cummins and Starc are cooked. All because we don't have a actual 4th seamer option (looking at you M.Marsh).

Hopefully this is his last test. He is likeable and a decent ODI player. But he's had his chances in tests.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

The length these plebs are bowling.

FMD.

 

[danielnajdek]

These singles FMD.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

These blokes both average 50. Not exactly tailenders.

With the night watchman they've pushed down from 7 and 8. I'd suggest both are more batting all rounders than bowling all rounders, especially Reddy who bowls little more than mediums and will probably spend the majority of his Test career at six

 

[The Lobbster]

You can’t trust the MCG pitch. It completely changes every year. Minefield one year then a flatter year. Five day draw then two day test match. Surely we can at least ask our curators to be consistent.

There will likely be a result this match (just). But you can’t have a ground in your home country where you can’t consistently have at least a minimal advantage

EDIT: ****ing tap talk

 

[Westend]

Calm down people these two are batting well just need one ball

 

[Hawksboy72]

2 many easy singles
