Calm down joff not over yet

But agree we need some changes

 

[Around the Wicket]

Smith - 3rd & 4th Innings Combined

Innings: 90
Runs: 2819
Average: 38.09
50s: 19
100s: 4
50+ Scores: 23
Highest Score: 142

That's actually pretty common.. and actually sits close to the recent greats.

Ponting - Combined average 42 - 6x 100's.

Clarke - Combined average 39 - 5x 100's

Kohli - Combined average 39 - 6x 100's

Tendulkar - Combined average 42 - 13x 100's

Lara - Combined average 38 - 9x 100's

 

[ApplecrossWC]

How many of these consistent chokes are down to the captain?

 

[Plugger35]

Question? Does anyone think Bumrah action in bowling he chuck's it? I'm having a conversation with a mate of mine and he thinks he does? But I don't really see that he does

They need to bring back Darrell Hair to no ball him out of the attack like he did with Murali.

It would take a brave and very stupid umpire to do that against India's best bowler though.

I don't think Bumrah chucks it anyway.

 

[Kuuz]

Smith, Khawaja and Head.

I expect Head to play some overly aggressive shots and get out. They clearly had a plan, and did it to perfection.

But expected more discipline from Smudge and way better technique from Uzzie. Uzzie's is the most concerning, as getting castled by one straight through him after getting a start, just seems like his technique is gone. His backlift in particular was coming down from such a weird angle today.

Marsh's was probably the worst, as he just wafted at another and got out. Like, do something man.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

The turning point!

 

[k31th]

lol Jaiswal again drops it

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Least Jaiswal can’t catch

 

[Southerntakeover]

Marnus just not good enough. He's as 'in' as he could expect to be. Still trash.

 

[Bucking Beads]

What was that shot from Marnus. This deadset feels like we’re throwing this match!

 

[barrackers]

That was a sitter

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Oooft lucky there

 

[eddiesmith]

It’s lucky he can bat because Jaiswal is a shocking fielder, 2nd drop today!

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

I can’t even.

 

[Chism]

 

[Speck]

That was appalling

 

[Outtatym]

Well, that one carried

 

[southern_crusher]

Labs giving them slips practice

 

[Gak Attack]

****ing moronic from Marnus. Team is a bunch of simps

 

[010203]

Rohit was steaming after that dropped catch

 

[Moonwatcher]

How lucky is Labs

 

[fuic08]

Wtf was that Marnus

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Luck has returned for Labs.

Another atrocious shot.

 

[Plugger35]

Jaiswal drops another one, even easier than the last one, Marnus is back to being one of the luckiest batsmen going around.

 

[cats_09]

In fairness Webster should still be getting a game ahead of Marsh on current form

100%

After the first three tests of the summer, we should have had double debutantes for Boxing Day
