Start reading from page 350, it’s just after pant and jaiswal seem to have steadied

or p356 when pant gets out (3 posts above someone makes the call that pant will do something dumb and India will lose)

 

[THE A5]

I was thinking that a possible way to get Jaiswal would be to let him get close to a 100 so he starts playing a few shots with the prize in sight.

It seems like that's what happened

He probably could have got a century and saved this match. He still has a long way to go maturity wise as he played at a few after the wickets kept on tumbling and easily could have got out then too.

Honestly India shat the bed 7 wickets on the last sess hahahha

Any data nerds know how often the Sydney test is alive for a series?

Wouldn't be commonplace

Last time was vs India in 20/21, but that was the 3rd of a 4-test series (1-1 after the first two).

Time before that was also vs India in 18/19, they were 2-1 up after three tests (Sydney was the 4th and final).

And before that was the Ashes 10/11, when England were up 2-1 after four tests.

So it's pretty rare.

 

[MisterB]

Gavaskar, like most of the other Indians, simply do not know the rules with respect to DRS. These clowns need to read up and learn about the hierarchy that exists in what is taken into consideration during a review.

 

[Satan]

Sunil at the moment

Hopefully we win the toss in Sydney and make 800.

And then it pisses down

 

[Doggy]

Is Hazelwood available for Sydney? Or are we a chance of Bolland/Abott?

Boland and Richardson

It was an optical illusion. They only lost 4

 

[philreich]

I think Pant should be given votes in the Allan Border Medal for his get out shot today .

 

[dantm]

It didn't work 80% of the time so I presume it's just a waste of money setting it up these days. Would've been handy today

Most likely.
It wasnt that long ago they used both in the review process.

What a piece of shit he is.

India's Neil Harvey. And if we're unlucky, we'll have to endure 20+ years more of his rancid ramblings.

Did he rob you of points in the bigfooty death list?

 

[Pistol Night]

And then it pisses down

Declare and have 1 over at them bowled by Carey

 

[moses]

Brilliant test match. Gutsy bowling performance. I thought we were headed for a draw at lunch.

Simpsons reference.

You dokt need to follow the rules when you sook it up and make the ICC bow down generally

At tea certainly

 

[Mr Meow]

Geez Cummins is lucky we got that done.

Pant is going to be cross with himself for a long time as he should be India had that draw if he just deadbatted another hour.

90 runs, 6 wickets, good bowling changes and fields, backed in his players to dig in at crucial stages each innings, lead a team that never gave up.

Yep let's just change his nickname to "Lucky" and be done with it.

 

[THE A5]

To me it looked like India handed the game to Australia in that 90 odd minutes of self destruction. Losing 7 wickets in quick time....poor.

Well Pants and Jaiswals wickets certainly makes it look like that. But the Aussies biwlers were immense.

 

[1990crow]

How quickly people forget.

Steyn by far; he threatened not just a player's wicket but their health.

His late outswing was a thing of beauty.

 

[The Casey Cat]

This place can get pretty mutinous after a shit house showing to be fair.

It does but i feel like generally we don't make the horsh shit excuses they do. Also don't go to their players' social media accounts and post utter nonsense.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

I'll offer Sunny a beer given I'm in town

And I know just the joint where HE will pay for it
