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

[Andrew Mc]

You can get cans of Balter XPA. 1.5 standards in each.

Ah good to hear - was mid only on the bottom level for a good while there.

 

[NSWCROW]

Choke on it Kohli

 

[Jeremias]

Bravo, Beau

 

[ams4crows]

Well played Beau!!! What a moment for him

 

[010203]

Hitting the series winning runs on your Test debut would feel awesome. Just ask Beau Webster.

 

[Plugger35]

Webster to get the MOTM and then get dropped for Mitch Marsh for the next test.

Mods are gonna drop their bundle over that, much like Siraj leaving the field

 

[Donakebab]

You've earned that stump Slug.

 

[freo_leo29]

Into the WTC now too

 

[dwwaino]

Off to scroll Indian cricket pages and read about fathers.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Epic series, one of the all-time greats, and a monumental response after being humiliated in Perth.

 

[revo333]

Best series win in a while!

 

[MarcMaverick]

Virat checking his pockets for the WTC and BGT?

And the CWC.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

The Cumdog Millionaires.

 

[Iceman!]

Hey Kohli and Siraj

 

[dumb]

50, couple of catches, first wicket, and hitting the winning runs. dream debut.

 

[the_interloper]

The chase was never in doubt by the time my man Beau was in. This was money for old rope. It's what he does, he's been doing it for seasons, often on day 4 shield pitches much worse than this one.

Someone tell me how mediocre he is again

I agreed with his selection and glad he did well

 

[MJG14]

What a series and what a win!

Another trophy under Cummins' leadership!

 

[Linda Lovelace]

Credit to the selectors for dropping marsh and picking Webster. Been a crucial call in this particular match.

What a series. Bumrah almost carrying India over the line very impressive. A number of Aussie players stepping up at different times across the five matches.

Think Australia certainly deserved to win the series, have won a lot more sessions overall compared to India.

Fantastic summer of test cricket!

They only dropped Marsh because they wanted to pick an injured Starc and needed the extra bowling overs to take the risk - which nearly cost us the game in India's second innings when Starc inevitably collapsed.

Don't give the selectors credit they don't deserve.

 

[largebus]

All hail the two head!

 

[Toffee Lion]

A wonderful series, one for the ages.

Shocking batting throughout and a lot to improve on but a great result nevertheless and certainly prime entertainment.

 

[hugecannon]

India finally giving spin a go and it's Washington rather than Jadeja, odd tactics,

The selection of Washington was strange all series , given how brittle
Their batting has been and how little he bowls they surely would have been better off with another pure batsman rather than him playing and barely bowling.

 

[revo333]

'unfortunately, since I bet on the other team, we won't be going out for pizza.'​

 

[cats_09]

Congrats Webster - not too often a teammate out scores Head in a decent length batting partnership

Really happy to see him hit the winning runs and with a really nice shot - looked very assured across both innings, and surely booked his ticket on the plane to Sri Lanka

 

[StackedHunch]

Love seeing the debutant hit a boundary to win. What a moment for him.

And that he so clearly decided that's how he was going to finish it.
