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

[31550]

Considering we're now bowling to the tail, any chance we can bowl at the stumps

Why start now? Haven't done it since Warne / McGrath days.

 

[Pistol Night]

If you mean tea tomorrow, if they bat another 2 and a bit sessions they will probably win.

We'll have them ****ed tonight. One more Boland Indian adoption session and well be chasing 180 tomorrow. Smith will hit the runs

 

[JimmyBC]

Lyon has spent more time signing shit than bowling this summer.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Would love to see 2 more wickets before the end of the day.

 

[Westy2487]

Killed giraffes as well. He's not a saint. Flying to Africa and hunting beautiful animals. You realise he is making a lot of money from his pink test.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Current Odds

Australia $1.50 or 1/2

India $2.62 or 13/8

How far did India come in when Pant was there?

 

[SSwans2011]

We'll have them ****ed tonight. One more Boland Indian adoption session and well be chasing 180 tomorrow. Smith will hit the runs

And a million flushes will be heard around the nation.

Why couldn't we have played Scotty all series

 

[Visions]

2 quick wickets and Australia are ahead but I'd put India ahead at the moment knowing Australia's batting.

Agree. Its brittle as can be.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Mark Waugh is losing his marbles. Fox need to cut him.

 

[Andronicus]

Umpires can do something. It's knowing when to step - each umpire could interpret situation differently.

All that needs to happen is the umpires just tell batsman to get on with it.

Firm, friendly but fair.

The Indian Cricket Council will demote umpires like that pretty fast.

 

[Pistol Night]

Lyon has spent more time signing shit than bowling this summer.

Hes got writers cramp in his spinning finger so is purely a night watchmen/ good bloke in the side now

 

[Cataholic]

And that's absolutely inexcusable given we all knew this going in

A fresh Richardson bounding in without a back strain and just 3 days recovery after 4 hard tests might've been real handy on this pitch right now.

 

[Coasters7]

Current Odds

Australia $1.50 or 1/2

India $2.62 or 13/8

That feels like free money given no one’s made 200 yet and we have to bat last

 

[Tugga27]

Im just guna sit on the dunny and watch on my phone

I'd prefer you to sit on your phone and watch the dunny TBH.

If you're watching it doesn't count.

How far did India come in when Pant was there?

No idea but whilst it was a wild ride and anyone can have a day out…logic said it was a matter if time

 

[cats_09]

A fresh Richardson bounding in without a back strain and just 3 days recovery after 4 hard tests might've been real handy on this pitch right now.

I'd even take Abbott bowling on his home deck

 

[Gammalite]

keep em ' under 200 Pleeease.
A nice chase for someone then. maybe Big Beau ? winning runs on debut. would be Maaaarvelous. (as Richie would say)

 

[SSwans2011]

I turned it off to lock in while working from home for a while and we have 2 wickets.

I'll continue not watching and find new ways to slack off.

When we have them all out at the end of day's play, please make sure nobody forgets my sacrifice.

What do we reckon? Me turning it off coincided with the 4 early wickets but also includes the Pant innings.

Am I safe to start watching again or is it too risky?

 

[western royboy]

That feels like free money given no one’s made 200 yet and we have to bat last

Go your hardest but I’m not with you

 

[Tugga27]

41 for a top 6 bat? That’s terrible lmao.

A keeper with his strike rate who averages above 40 is gold.

Mark Waugh is losing his marbles. Fox need to cut him.

Can’t lose them if you never had them to begin with

Still offering more than the bison did

Another day close to 50k attendees. So appears as though the only destination in need of improvement yet again is Perth.

Yet they can get close to capacity for BBL hit n giggle. Sums up the Perth cricket fan. Letting down the purists by preferring the non-credible cricket format.

How does test cricket attract the average WA fan. Tough question to answer.
