5th Test Border Gavaskar Trophy January 3-7 1000hrs @ the SCG

[Swanny69]

Webster looks like the guy at the mechanics who is the brunt of all the practical jokes ..

 

[ABAB]

Can this guy just nick one.

 

[William Caresser]

The run up markings are something

Did they bring in Banksy or some local taggers from the hood?

 

[k31th]

Can this guy just nick one.

being able to successfully play and miss is a sign of a good Test opener

 

[Jimthegreat]

This bloke isn't going to play and miss 300 times again is he.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

This bloke has an amazing ability to not hit the edge

 

[Joffaboy]

I remember thinking the new blond leggie wasn't much chop.

Thought, gee he gets some turn, just like 15kg's and ditch the mullet and he might be ok.

cummin's started very strong.

 

[Xtreme]

India will win the match and level the series

or

be defeated by the weather gods


**

Starc needs to shave and/or trim those sideburns

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Cummins looking good first up, Starc not bad either.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Hit the edge you arseh*le

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Pitch it up these plays and misses are still a yard short

 

[k31th]

plenty of bounce there :O

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Glad we're not facing Bumrah this morning

 

[Gough]

Thought, gee he gets some turn, just like 15kg's and ditch the mullet and he might be ok.

Batting with Border to help save the game in the last session was his most notable achievement.

There is some truth to that, it suggests the player doesn't get drawn into following the ball as much as those who get edges.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Get Boland on early

 

[Plugger35]

This pitch doesn't seem to be as difficult to bat on as it looks.

Worrying signs early ..that Webster earring ..ugghh!

Who does he think he is? Shane Warne? He is the last Aussie cricketer I can remember wearing an earring.

 

[RookiePick]

Jeez Starc struggles to get it right at times.

Hopefully he conjures a Jaffa to make up for these wasted balls.

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

gg selectors

 

[Melvin]

India all out for 120 would be nice

I much prefer 119

 

[Bucking Beads]

We need to be bowling to hit the stumps more. There’s a bit in this so having them leaving the ball doesn’t work for me.

 

[Kapow!!!]

I'm assuming the discussion has already been had but because I'm lazy I'll just throw it out here: Who is buying the "Rohit dropped/rested himself" narrative?

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

I much prefer 119

To everybody thinking this is 50 too many, none of that smut here please.

 

[Gethelred]

Pitch is lively, probably the liveliest we've seen all series. Ball's flying through, seaming.

Need to bowl a fuller length. We're going to miss Hazlewood today.
