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

[Gak Attack]

Wish the selectors would gave balls to drop Khawaja and Marnus for Sri Lanka but they won't. They'll carry them to the ashes where they'll be big liabilities.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

India back in the game because two batters played shots they didn’t need to play.

With 100 runs to get in 150 overs.

 

[troybe]

1/3 of the way to the target

 

[SC_Power]

"That's out without a doubt"

Thanks for that brilliant analysis JL

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Is it me or has Khawaja gone back to being stuck on the crease the last few balls?

Since Konstas got out

 

[ABAB]

I would like to know where Marnus was trying to hit that shot

To get out like he has done previously.

 

[Iceman!]

Typical Australian fashion, trying to throw again that is well in control.

 

[010203]

Sydney Thunder have started very well

Only problem with that is Khawaja doesn't play for the Thunder

 

[RandB]

Marnus so far down the wicket. If he can't combat a ball like that then what is the point. Embarrassing self engineered dismissal.

 

[dogs105]

Nope, check out his pair of centuries. Only other time I saw Special K use this aggressive tactic was also against India, the PM X1 match.

The 1 day match?

 

[Pistol Night]

Feels like we're already there.

We were as soon as everyone started calling it over by lunch

 

[ams4crows]

Can Handscombe bat at 3 in Sri Lanka? Labs doesn't deserve to go

 

[TigerCraig]

1/3 of the way to the target

India 1/5

 

[peternorth]

This is whack

 

[SportsCentre]

Lab loves giving away his charity wicket.

Getting into the spirit of Jane McGrath day

 

[Neese]

Stay calm Smithy

 

[ApplecrossWC]

I genuinely hope we are not going to reproduce the first innings suicide batting with 2.5 days to get 110.

If any team can do it, it’s this one

 

[cats_09]

Second time he's played that exact shot, and both times caught.

It was a nothing shot

There was nothing attacking about it nor was he found out by a good ball that caught the edge

There was zero to be achieved by hanging the bat out like he did

 

[TasSixer]

"That's out without a doubt"

Thanks for that brilliant analysis JL

Better check if it carried

 

[Jim Prideaux]

I would like to know where Marnus was trying to hit that shot

Yeah, if he got more on it it may well have gone to backward point

 

[Neese]

Border love

 

[LukeParkerno1]

3 runs smithy

 

[troybe]

India 1/5

 

[Westend]

Wish the selectors would gave balls to drop Khawaja and Marnus for Sri Lanka but they won't. They'll carry them to the ashes where they'll be big liabilities.

green coming back

 

[peternorth]

What was India after 9 overs?
