that's a superb cut shot from Khawaja

 

[Kennedy Parker]

Shot usman

So we’ve past half way. No risks taken after lunch.

Well done.

It's weird watching sensible batting

 

[kenneje]

Awesome shot

 

[iDon]

Could have done better and the wicket was a rank hack but he threw the bowlers off their lines which allowed us to get off to a good start.

Did better than the more experienced Labuschagne and Smith which is pretty impressive with the weight of the run chase but also Indian fans and even plenty of his own countrymen deathriding him.

Done a great job coming in and having an impact as a 19-year-old. Going to be an amazing player. Just enjoy the ride.

Please put down the Kool Air you are slurping. Spin it whatever way you want but he has gotten out with a slog.

Khawaja is on

 

[troybe]

Klassic Khawaja

Reading in here, sensible isn't the way. Mickey mouse stuff

 

[Neese]

Beautiful

 

[MarcMaverick]

The two innings where Konstas has done some early damage has had a better effect on Khawajas innings, allowed him to settle and perhaps not feel all the pressure?

That, and he got in the heads of the Indians

 

[Achy Blakey Heart]

that's a superb cut shot from Khawaja

He has one of the best late cuts going.

 

[Bedi]

Superb start to the session has really steadied the ship here.

 

[Hamingja]

Not at all. It is what I've been told by the majority of people I've spoken to down here about it.
Most are happy to have a team but say extending Launceston would've made more sense.
But there will be other Tasmanians who are all for it.
General feel probably wrong term for it.

I'm in the won't give up supporting Geelong camp.

See how keen all these other people are when Tassie are getting pumped by 10 goals plus every week like GC and GWS at the start.

After the initial season it will drop off considerably and they will only get crowds when Hawthorn/Geelong/Collingwood/Richmond/Carlton/Essendon come to town as away teams.

Therein lies the problem with Bailey's tripe about picking the best six batsmen. Combinations are important.

let’s get this I’m nervous

Please put down the Kool Air you are slurping. Spin it whatever way you want but he has gotten out with a slog.

That's literally what I said in my post.

I've seen your posting, you understand nuance. Try not to let your irrational hatred of a 19-year-old who has done nothing worth being hated over get in the way of that.

It's weird watching sensible batting

It is weird they have so many on the boundary conceding easy singles.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Phwoar

 

[Headless]

Glorious shot.

 

[k31th]

special cover drive from Khawaja; nice

 

[CarnTheScray]

Uzzie has knuckled down. Well done. Please don’t throw it away.

 

[NSWCROW]

that ****in guy again !!!

 

[Moonwatcher]

3/100

 

[Neese]

This is pretty impressive from Ussie

 

[Westend]

people calming down yet ?
