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

[Mr Meow]

Tomorrow morning's session will be crucial in terms of both the match result and destination of the BGT.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Back spasms for Bumrah is the current explanation. May bat and bowl tomorrow.

He'll get up to play tomorrow but it's a question of how well he plays.

He's been truly awesome so anything less than that is a bonus

 

[Stig O'Hara]

At this stage I don’t think he’s got the tools to do that

All I’ve heard is that he batted 3 years low, made a mountain of runs in districts & came on like a comet.

Have no idea if he favours leg or off, if he prefers forward or back, or if he has a solid defence.

He can get a decent 60 tomorrow & help win a series.

Or be a Christmas clown show.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Does the rule apply when they take the field next as to how long he was off or does it reset on a new day?

 

[revo333]

Strange series, relying on Boland to probably win it for us.

Watching highlights, the pitch is doing a bit but far out there has been some soft dismissals. Batsman backing away to square leg as if the Indians are bowling thunderbolts.

Anyway, said after the first test that the result may come to bite us back in the bottom, only ourselves to blame if it ends 2-2.

Damien was a fantastic bat. Suffered from politics at a time when he really should’ve been in the side.

Punter would have memories of our failed 100 odd chases in the past

Triggered remembering the 1994 SCG Test.

10yo me still hasn't forgiven Martyn (despite it not being his fault at all)

 

[Tiges1229]

I rekon Aussie should dig in for the run chase take there time no throwing there wickets away

He paid a massive price

Bowling is not a problem - we have ample

Johnson, O'Neil, beardman are just 3 off the top of my head

Bartlett, Morris?

That's more to do with Australian selection policy than talent availability.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

He paid a massive price

6 years.

For one shot.

 

[Gough]

He paid a massive price

Vinnige Fanie was something else that day.

 

[Ohitsthatguy]

Bartlett.

Fergus O'Neill

Bartlett, Morris?

I did say just 3 off the top of my head

Not a criticism, just adding to the conversation, I'm sure Aus selectors check in with the Big Footy selectors, to keep their fingers on the pulse.....

I'm more concerned about batsmen. We have basically nothing.

Johnson is almost thirty isn’t he? Can certainly play but he’s not a full next gen. I’m looking for the younger guys ready to bowl fast.

IRL I'm Tony Dodemaide.

They would be wise to…
