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

[Pistol Night]

Kohli real keen to take his other frontliners down bowling 11/10 overs in a row.

**** them he would reckon. They can sleep on the plane ride home. In economy

 

[Leather Poisoning]

If we get 22 runs per day for the rest of the test we'll win

 

[IKnowtheDog]

Yes!

Drunks in footy shorts jumping the fence to field the ball themselves

The GABBA was best for this with sections of the crowd virtually sitting on the playing arena

 

[Bedi]

Is he not a dickhead?
Been fun watching this while posting in here.

currently number 1 in ICC rankings. Though Kohli likely to replace him after this test

 

[k31th]

Surprising India are playing a deep point at the moment... singles will get Australia home, chances at wickets gives India a chance

 

[Shaunbkk]

Big food and Big pharma contributed how much????

Mcgrath Foundation has sold 390,000 seats.
Raised over 8 million in the Pink Test.

 

[Pistol Night]

If we get 22 runs per day for the rest of the test we'll win

Would make for enthralling watching.

 

[Neese]

Meaning of life to go

 

[StillAtLarge]

STFU JL don't jinx us here

 

[Gough]

Four more.

 

[Grockadoc]

Webster standing deeper in the crease than the top order. Seems to have more time as a result. Playing the pitch smarter than most others.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Hows the body language in the stands lol

 

[Moonwatcher]

Every boundary is 10% of the required now

 

[k31th]

good stuff Travis to make the most of a wide half volley

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

The GABBA was best for this with sections of the crowd virtually sitting on the playing arena

Off topic - when did wearing footy shorts as casual wear go out of fashion?

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

38 to go.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Trav unleashes his patented kitchen sink whack.

 

[10Dulkar]

SCG January 1 1996..

No traditional New Year's test? How come? When did they become a fixture?

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

IND were 124/4 in 22 overs

It has?

My bigger issue with the India officials around the ground is that unlike the 12/13th men, they don't wear a fluro top and instead have white tops on

Can't have people in white acting as fieldsmen when a batsman looks up (hence why all subs have to wear the yellow tops)

 

[Iceman!]

Shot Head!

 

[Outtatym]

Webster standing deeper in the crease than the top order. Seems to have more time as a result. Playing the pitch smarter than most others.

Being 8ft tall probably helps

 

[Wallaby]

Did anyone else think that Indian fielder put in a pretty poor effort on the boundary trying to stop that four from Head?

A wise man (Test Player) told me very early in my Senior Career that it didn’t matter what level you played but 85% of the time a batsman got himself out - the remaining 15% being made up of a good ball, a bad umpiring decision or a piece of bad luck (run out)

It applies to every level of cricket

“And if you reckon, you’re getting any more than two good balls a season, you’re either playing at a level above your ability or you’ve got your hand on it”

Very much so!
