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

[beatnik]

Just got home and watching the replay.
That Jaiswal dismissal in slo mo was not out. A ridiculous decision on review. This test was plagued by non lbw calls of which Jaiswal was a beneficiary today but no way could you over turn that. Cost India the series. Shameful umpiring/ not that bit icc processes.
No way that was conclusive and if a flatline snicko and no hot spot it's simply a not out going with umpires calll
Indian fans at the ground every right to be pissed off

Google false negatives

He doesn't **** me hes elbows literally bends 65 degree in the wrong direction

 

[Ulahoopski]

Yes. When you are given out, the rules state you are out and you leave the field. You don't stand there arguing with a \nd berating the umpires. Get off the ****ing field. Simple.

And yet again someone dramatising in order to paint their own picture. He waited for the DRS adjudication and when given out he walked off whilst getting clarification. No "arguing" and definitely no "berating" - that's just your bias made up bs.

 

[PhatBoy]

Imagine in the future when people bang on about Kolhi and people look up his stats to find a test average of 45.

huh?

In fairness to him he will also occupy a place in history as the greatest white ball player of all time for at least a period of the game

Just like Smith and Marnus do. Just tuck the bat under your arm and trudge off

 

[Kennedy Parker]

So who do we all like beating more? India or England?

Beating India seems like more of an achievement.

Beating England is just business as usual.

 

[nobbyiscool]

Just say it - she was xenophobic and racist…


Google false negatives

The tech is not infallible…all it does is show a spike when it detects a sound…if there is a clear spike that could not have been created by anything but the bat then the 3rd umpire can use it it as proof of an edge but the lack of a spike only means it didn’t pick up the contact that the vision CLEARLY shows…he belted it

Think about it this way: if the vision showed a clear gap between bat and ball but snicko showed a spike, you’d want the 3rd umpire to ignore it right? This is the same but in reverse

You've misunderstood what I meant by "we" and given me the day's most unjustified rant as a result.

'Virat Kohli will play for 3-4 years but Rohit Sharma...' - Ravi Shastri's assessment of India batting duo's Test cricket future | Sporting News India

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli failed to score big again in the fourth Test of the series with a huge target to be chased on the final day. See what Ravi Shastri thinks about the future of the Indian duo.

Hahahahahahahaha

Kohli averages something like 30 since 2020. He's not only finished, he hasn't been an above-average Test player for years.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

for all the talent India have had over the past decade, they have very little silverware to show for it. A large part of it has to be poor captaincy.

Their current captain is an uninspiring underperformer who sulks when the chips are down in Rohit, his predecessor is an erratic flog with a massive ego in Kohli. The best captain of that crop was Ajinkya Rahane.

They are generally just individuals who rely on brilliance rather than a team. They aren’t helped by their off field set up. Some of their selection decisions are just mind boggling

[kickazz]

Happy to say I was there today. Still working my way through the thread, but wonder if our catching had been mentioned. Was really good, took a few tough ones.

 

[ibd77]

Also **** off Sunny with your optical illusion shit.

The microphone used in snicko is at the base of the stumps ain't it? Probably no surprise that snicko didn't detect any sound with the contact occurring at head height.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

He just said it should have been given by Wilson, had he done that then there wouldn't have been any controversy as Jaiswal knew he hit it and would have just walked. Hell, had he been a competent umpire he would have given the LBW earlier so this wouldn't have happened to him.

Two decisions in Australia's first innings wrong, Missed LBW, Missed hit off a bat and a missed edge.

The bloke should be sacked for that alone.

 

[Trojan90]

So who do we all like beating more? India or England?

England = Making love to the wife - Important, Still good but fairly routine.

India = Banging the mistress - Wild and fun. You want to perform but it doesn’t mean as much. They seem to care more than you do.

 

[Burtonsgottago]

No way are we taking one fewer specialist batsmen in a game we only need to draw.

Stupidly Australia have done it before… in England… and lost

 

[Burtonsgottago]

So what did he say to them exactly? You just assume he was "arguing".

He wasn’t asking them what they were having for dinner. You’re out.. get off.

 

[hawkman]

If Starc is cooked which I think he is especially with match figures of 1-111, we should go Abbott and Richardson for Marsh and Starc. 6 Carey, 7 Abbott, 8 Cummins, 9 Richardson. Still decent batting. 2 strikes bowlers in Richardson and Cummins, 2 stock bowlers in Boland and Abbott. An extra bowler in Abbott if Richardson is a bit underdone. We can't carry an injured Starc especially with Marsh not bowling.

Has bowled plenty of innings a lot worse than today and got 4 or 5

We aren't going to go at 7 with someone who has a FC average of 24 in a test we only need to draw

 

[peternorth]

Someone mentioned here during th test that they seem to be hell bent on getting Abbott into the team.

Well here we are.

 

[DaRick]

Well here we are.

Can very easily see him become another Clint McKay. Probably not quick enough at international level.

That said, Starc seemed like he was on his last legs and IMO shouldn't play the fifth. But I'd gamble on Richardson (Neser's apparently not available, which is a shame).

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Only 40 years to be accepted in that dump? I'd half it quite honestly.
My mates missus who is ex Adelaide Hills is now classed as Melbournian in only half the time

Dump.. righto. Enjoy following StKilda.

 

[AJ_2000]

I know it was the wicket that started the downfall but I didn't think the Pant shot was that awful. It was a longhop that deserved to be smashed. Someone like Pant needs to probably see the ball going to the boundary occasionally so he can keep his focus.
Sure he mishit it but the shot was there to be played

The 1st innings shot though was dumb

Its also one of the longest boundaries in the world, so hitting 6 there is some effort, especially with a man in the deep

Stated as the difference, in the end. No one thought otherwise.

 

[scottywiper]

We seem to always get Wilson ...lucky us

 

[theiaofseed]

Imagine in the future when people bang on about Kolhi and people look up his stats to find a test average of 45.

huh?

If he plays for 4-5 years he wont even average 40 at this rate. Post covid he's averaged 31.7
