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

[Mofra]

It’s a low bar but is Ricky Ponting the best commentator we have this summer? He’s the only commentator that I haven’t wanted to mute yet, and it’s really funny when he blatantly ignores stupid comments from the others.

Yep, I was talking about this last summer too.
He tends to talk almost exclusively about cricket, crazy for a cricket commentator.

 

[smasha]

Wonderful it would be sitting at the SCG watching us cruise home breaking a ten year drought.

 

[hawkman]

I hope they keep the cameras on Kohli the whole time while we celebrate... They haven't taken them off him all series, don't stop now!

Probably will be on Konstas given he has has an almost even split of camera time since Boxing Day

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

What beer do they serve at the SCG general sections? It's probably mid-strength swill which would take at least 10 to get you tipsy.

What an expensive day out.

 

[SSwans2011]

How the **** am I still shitting myself?

There's nothing like Test cricket.

 

[peternorth]

NO POSTER IS TO GO TO THE TOILET UNTIL THE MATCH IS OVER.​

 

[Tassieboy]

Shiraz bowling half trackers to Beau.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Shot Slug.

19 to go.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Cya India

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Beau goes baaaaaang!!!

 

[Bedi]

Interesting to see if they do give it to Bumrah (think they will).

Clearly the best in the series but not many get it in a 3-1 loss that should have been 4-1.

Cummins has had a great series too

 

[k31th]

very nice pull shot in front of square again from Webster

 

[Mofra]

So Kholi’s strategy with Bumrah injured is just to bowl Siraj and Krishna and use a part timer to allow them to change ends?

Having no 19 year old to shoulder charge has really bamboozled him

 

[Neese]

BEAUtiful

 

[Westend]

shot webbie

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Not sure which team I hate more between the poms and the Indians.

Both smug arrogant whinging campaigners.

England. They're smug and arrogant with "bazball" and are still shit. Stay in your lane, soap dodgers.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Shot.

 

[Iceman!]

Beau looks phenomenal.

Making a lot of people pre test look a little silly

 

[Kennedy Parker]

Webster you gun

 

[Plugger35]

This is all over.

Can't help but wonder what would have happened if Bumrah was fit to bowl here, he would have taken a few wickets at least.

[ABAB]

So Kholi’s strategy with Bumrah injured is just to bowl Siraj and Krishna and use a part timer to allow them to change ends?

Given only 160 runs to win, no choice?

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

I hope Head runs at Kohli celebrating then deviates at the last second

 

[Iamspock]

There isn’t a more entitled group.

I work with a lovely Indian lady, she came from a privileged background, her father was high up in the military. She didn't know how to make a cup of tea, in adulthood.

 

[Mofra]

Cummins has had a great series too

Bumrah 1, Cummins 2, Boland 3 - and Head not far off given the first two tests

 

[Gethelred]

That was a "don't bowl there" shot.
