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

[dumb]

So behind a declarable score, without time to bowl them out, assuming we don't get bowled out.

cummins is defensive in the field but a bit better setting a total it seems. may depend on what we get out of our explosive/stinky middle order.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Cricket Australia will demand all pitches be roads with those crowd figures.

It would be why we have seen a flatter surface here

Cricket Australia will demand all pitches be roads with those crowd figures.

This has been a very good wicket.

This match should NOT be as close as it is.

 

[PhatBoy]

Bumrah won't get it to 16/17... plays to many games in subcontinent

He averages 17 in India and doesn’t play there that often compared to how regularly he plays away. But I don’t think he will get it down that low regardless

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Runs coming pretty easy, no silly shots.

Swim between the flags.

 

[Kuuz]

Marnus is a plod but Smith is 4 from 24 balls himself

India have bowled pretty well the first 30 odd overs. Contained the batsmen well.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Kerry: ‘feel for Inglis because he looks a Test player, on what we’ve seen in the short form.’

How the hell does that work? He doesn’t even have a good ODI record for starters.

They used the same argument for Marsh.

It's like they don't realise Test cricket is different...

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Marnus is using every part of his body he’d be like a bloke at a paintball venue after this test

Going to need a serious ice bath!

Well Inglis does have a good shield record last few years but yeah bizzare

 

[Stan Van Gundy]

time to put the foot down lads

 

[PhatBoy]

Ok so safe to assume ‘Berty Oldfield’ is Kerry’s NameDrop of the Day

 

[k31th]

Smithy with some actual flashing of the blade... nicely into the gap for 4.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

this is better

 

[The 747]

time to put the foot down lads

Fortunately Siraj is here to help us out.

 

[eddiesmith]

Don’t know why people are complaining, Australia well on track to be 350 in front before stumps tonight, probably good for a few overs at them tonight as light won’t be a problem.

 

[Plugger35]

This has been a very good wicket.

Yeah can't complain about the wicket, it looks like this will go well into Day 5 with something in it for both batsmen and bowlers.

If it goes into the last session tomorrow with both teams still in with a chance of winning the match it would be an ideal finish.

No issue Inglis replacing Carey when Carey needs to be replaced, but can wait till then unless he demands playing as a batsman in his own right.

We should be playing for the draw now, we aint bowling them out on this wicket


onto Sydney at 1-1, any rain forecast?

[Joffaboy]

Pitch starting to play at two heights? 300 might take some getting.

Disagree, we should be going for a win as we need to win this series.

Need to put the Indians back in for a short spell before stumps.

 

[BGman]

Back to McSweeney?

Henry Hunt. specialist opener.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Got to attack Reddy now
