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

Why not cover the stumps???

Deliberately change line to block the throw and it's obstructing the field.........I think.

 

[Saint12]

The team has a bad habit of choking. Get into winning positions then can't bowl at the tail, then the batsman collapse.

Rely on too few bowlers and too few batsmen

 

[Southerntakeover]

The way we drop our heads when the momentum is against us in a test like this, India will get it two down

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

You're allowed to hold your line and if that's between the ball & stumps then so be it, but not allowed to intentionally change your path of travel to do so - India would have appealed for obstruction & Starc would still be out

His path was blocked by Bumrah who was standing on that side next to the stumps.

 

[cats_09]

38 years since the last Tied Test - could we see another one here?

Yes

 

[hawkman]

If he runs across the pitch there he can easily argue his path was blocked by Bumrah.

Crossing the pitch would be the give-away that you are obstructing the field

India will pass us 5 down

 

[PhatBoy]

You are allowed to get in the way of the ball.

lol. No you aren’t

 

[Joffaboy]

too much time left for a result, no way this goes to a tie.

A tie is not a draw, of course it's possible.

Chism this match would be all over in two days if balmainforever was umpiring

Pressure can do amazing things.

 

[Southerntakeover]

What’s he saying?

The way Cummings has been able to play the ball suggests its not a bad batting strip, Bumrah's bowling good areas.

 

[Magma]

His path was blocked by Bumrah who was standing on that side next to the stumps.

should've taken one for the team and run through bumrah

Tomorrow is going to be insane.

Imagine if our blokes carried on like this ****wit kohli does?

On the odd occasion Warner did and we teared strips off him for it. Meanwhile when Kohli does it India thinks he’s a king.

Is small man syndrome still a thing?

 

[ApplecrossWC]

Tomorrow is going to be insane.

No it won't, India will win easily

 

[Iceman!]

I don’t see it happening but we need to drag this up to 300 somehow

 

[cats_09]

too much time left for a result, no way this goes to a tie.

That may be the case for a draw

But a tie is a possibility

 

[k31th]

wut?

Do you understand the game?

Yes, I'm saying they'll either run the total down easily or get nowhere near it (e.g. bowled out), not lose their last wicket when the scores are level.

 

[norway blue]

Cmon tail A quick fire 20 or 30.

I hope you are right but it's India at canter for me from here. Our bowlers are cooked.

This is test cricket at it's best, drama galore with some great bowling, some great batting, some dropped catches and 2 run outs.

All results still on the table, you can't beat a great test match as a sporting contest, the Yanks don't know what they are missing.

Imagine choosing baseball over cricket as your summer sport.
