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

Hopefully McDonald has told his players not to behave badly or say anything intimidating to Bumrah, he’s clearly into fair and respectful behaviour on the field.

Stepson is 2 from 2 on toilet trips today.....

Kepp slipping him the prune juice

ABC with the stat. Australia have dropped 15 catches this series….Smith with 7 of them

Not surprised overrated slipper

 

[SC_Power]

Greatest bowler of all time to a bunny and you’ve got deep point, third man, fine leg and deep square leg…

Bumrah has the world record for most runs off a test over.

A bunny, but a free swinging one.

 

[kickazz]

I don’t know if I want to watch us bat. I fear the car crash.

Send in Starc early to swing big

 

[dogs105]

Work that back Bumrah.

Sick of the word "tragedy" and the like being used to describe Bumrah getting injured.

They've clearly over worked/bowled him, and now it's back firing on them.

There's nothing tragic about it.

Yep. Anyone who said we did the wrong thing batting on the morning of day 5 in Melbourne is an idiot.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Hope they mowed the grass today

Michelle Bowland!

 

[Neese]

Oooh

 

[troybe]

All hail Scott Boland!

 

[cats_09]

Someone definitely has to be a sacrificial lamb here to try and get 30-50 off asap.

Realistically, the tail is going to have zero impact at the end of the innings under pressure so send one of them out there now to try and inside/top edge a few to the rope

Can Head open?

It may sound a little crazy but Konstas & Head opening could be a more positive move than Usman going out there to block and get out cheaply

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Build the man a statue!

 

[Bedi]

5 fer!

 

[peternorth]

Boland another!!! That's a Michelle!

 

[braverobot]

I reckon we do something funky with our batting order when we bat. Send Starc out to open. Let him play his natural game. If it works a quick 20-30 would be like gold.

I was thinking the same but send Head out to open with Konstats and just go at everything.

 

[foxdog50]

Is the pitch getting better to bat on it? If it is drying up a bit and the grass is drying up, hopefully it will get better to bat on it?

 

[Outtatym]

Well deserved Scotty...grab 6!

 

[10Dulkar]

Sick of hearing this "there's a ball with their name on it" as if it absolves batsmen from digging in and grinding it out in tough circumstances.

 

[dogs105]

Hope they mowed the grass today

Which grass?

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Uzzie!!!

First slip Master.

 

[SC_Power]

This should be over by tea, surely.

Australia finally with the BGT.
