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

[Moonwatcher]

Within 9 runs

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Exquisite

 

[JimmyBC]

These two are righting the ship

 

[Underarm]

Who gave Brendan Julian a gig in the commentary box?

He talks over people, has poor takes, speaks about things which have nothing to do with the game.

If memory serves, he wasn't even that good a cricketer (relative to the level he played).

Is it just because he's a good looking dude?

They lose comms to the BBL, So have to rope in anyone they can.

 

[dogs105]

Tallest, not widest.

Boony lying down?

 

[Moonwatcher]

5 runs

 

[ams4crows]

Oh Smithy in form is so good to watch

 

[katana]

Kohli and Broad together would be a team of great honour

kohli is humourless. broady was cheeky. very different.

 

[31550]

On this pitch a 100 run partnership is too much to expect. But a couple of 50+ run partnerships should just about secure the trophy for Australia.

There's one!

 

[troybe]

9995 better than Bradman

 

[10Dulkar]

Harsha really didn't want to entertain that Ind-Pak neutral test discussion given his past yet I get the feeling he personally would be in favour.

Beautiful shot, Smudge.

 

[Donakebab]

Pubished! Smith is looking on.

 

[Westend]

Great batting smudge

I think that's how it started...

 

[Young Redleg]

Smith winding back the clock has been the highlight of the series for me

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Helen bowling rubbish which Smith is rightfully dispatching.

 

[philreich]

I'd like to see Reddy bowling from both ends.

 

[tugga]

they're gonna get in for lunch and find rohit has cleared it all out

Pant will be pissed then.

 

[imagifED]

Webster very organised and composed. Seems like another Boland type. Arguably already the batter I feel most at ease watching.

 

[31550]

Amazing how much easier batting becomes when the ball is 25 overs old.

I think he knows the right people at Fox, possibly even related to them through his wife's family, he probably has a job for life.

 

[10Dulkar]

Tallest, not widest.

Not thirstiest either.

 

[Burro]

And with that, Webster can get a second innings duck and average more than Marsh for the series.

So you think it is ok?

 

[RandB]

It has gotten easier

Shame we're 4 down

Yep, that 30+ over ball was there for the taking for Head if he didn't fluff it.

A sign that I’m getting old is the fact that I see a bay of grown men dressed like Richie Benaud watching the cricket and drinking piss and think ‘there are few places on the planet that I would less rather be if I was given a bunch of options, than in the middle of that group’ even with everything that is wrong with the world at the moment.
