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

[Saint12]

Shastri is bleeding

 

[Stig O'Hara]

We were fighting in the trenches all day.

What a wicked days cricket.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Most of our actual batsmen could learn a few things from these two about valuing your wicket.

It may not end in a win, but this looks to be a match, even a series-saving partnership.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Finally the boring test is over

Heat v Sixers

BRING IT ON

 

[Coasters7]

333 lead

Declare overnight

Win

Nah get them out in the field for an over or two so they only get the 10 minute changeover to prepare

 

[The Defender]

Outstanding batting Marnus, Cummins, Lyon, Boland and some pitiful batting from some others.

 

[Golumless]

Entertaining final session but we're playing for a draw tomorrow. I thought we'd at least bowl a few overs today.

Nah, we're all in for the win. 330 is going to be a very tough chase and India is as brittle as we are.

 

[revo333]

Lead of 333 Tubby Taylor

 

[Southerntakeover]

14 off Bumrah's last over, including the wicket no-ball.

Perfect time for them to have to sleep on it

 

[carltonchelsea]

Very happy with that, how good is this Test?
It’s the Pantheon of the game, hands down!

 

[gtrxuone]

14 off Bumrah's last over, including the wicket no-ball.

 

[dogs105]

333 lead

Declare overnight

Win

2 overs tomorrow if possible

 

[Barrybran]

Nah, we're all in for the win. 330 is going to be a very tough chase and India is as brittle as we are.

Bowling India out tomorrow will be a tough ask. Not impossible but I'd back them in to get through.

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

We were going to declare overnight no matter what right? Regardless of what eventuated from that Bumrah over.

 

[Toffee Lion]

That was a day of bloody test cricket.

 

[Joffaboy]

The ebbs and flow of test cricket fully on show.
We were destroyed before tea, but the late order recovery has been astounding.

What a joy to watch.

[Mick F]

Didn't realise you could take the new ball mid over but there you go.

Often happened. Opening bowler would bowl a couple, to warm up, before taking the new pill.

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

2 overs tomorrow if possible

What's the logic behind the 2 overs? I've seen a few posters mention this.

 

[Skull Face]

Entertaining final session but we're playing for a draw tomorrow. I thought we'd at least bowl a few overs today.

Why give India a chance at all to go 2-1 up when they haven't been ahead in any game since brisbane.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

A lead of 350+ would be a dream outcome from 6/94

Hope Lyon gets his first 50 tomorrow morning

 

[Lunchtime]

Lead of 333 Tubby Taylor

Graham Gooch, 333

 

[SportsCentre]

That last session won't do much to help the perceived dis-unity in the Indian camp

 

[PoopingHindi]

great days cricket. loved the contest. plenty of fight from both sides. Bumrah elite.
I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

 

[danielnajdek]

Well done to Marnus, Pat, Nathan and Scott. We might still lose but they showed grit and heart today unlike the top/middle order.

Random question, cos I never take a radio to the footy - do I still need a radio in 2024/5? Or can you get pretty much synched commentary at the ground on your phone now?
