He's the Pistol Night of the Indian forum.

 

[kickazz]

i thought that was just a precursor to the summer. This is peak cricket season so what brainiac decides not to have any games. I hate the Big Bash, so guess that's the cricket done then.

Should have brought the women's Test forward at least

Nathan Lyon ,pain and despair in the Ashes with the injury.
Rose from the ashes and helped us win another trophy.
Legend.

 

[Dubai Quacker]

The decision to drop Mitch Marsh likely won us the series.

And as much as I don’t like Kohli - his sandpaper antics were kinda funny. I still dislike Warner more than any Indian player.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Tremendous series from day 1 in Perth.
Just a pity Bunrah got injured when he did but not sure they were going to win it anyway.

 

[Cainozz]

A good win, but it might be the last one we have for some time, the team is old and even the new boy Webster is 31. At least Webster played like a Test cricketer. I was a huge supporter of Konstas until today, but after that shot he is NOT the future of Australia's top order at the moment. Usman is 38, Smith is 36 in June, Boland is 36 in April, Mitchell Starc is 35 in a few weeks, Hazlewood is 34 in a couple of days, Marnus could be lost and he's a youngin' at 31 this year! Konstas should be one of the batting answers, but i have my doubts now. Can't wait for Green to return. The other replacements might be hard to find and are pretty thin on the ground. Still, this win was a good one, but i suspect the team come Boxing day 2025 could be a vastly different one. We could see 5 or 6 new players facing the Poms?

I’d expect us to win one of those Sri Lankan tests later this month. They will be hard to face in their conditions though. I think we have 3 tests against the Windies in the Caribbean too and I’d expect us to win that too.

Hopefully Green is fit to perhaps slot back in at 4 and move Smith to 3 for that Windies tour and trial Marnus to open if Ussie retires after the WTC final.

I feel like England will win a test or 2 next summer if there are some flatter pitches where their big hitters go beserk. I still maintain faith this team would be able to stick it out for longer though.

 

[JackFlash]

Kontas has the shots and talent, he was milking 2 2s on the leg side off good length balls since the field was spread out and then tried to smash the next ball off a good length. He can play the long innings as shown in Shield cricket as he has the talent.

No doubting the talent, but he does not have the temperament yet. Today was an absolute shocker and he was completely outshone by Webster. Konstas just had a lesson on "there is a time and place for everything". He might be lucky that Usman is 38, but he's years off being a top opening batsman.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Media can film whomever they please in public, that's not what I disputed.
I said Kohli as reported, was annoyed that they were filming him with his family and in that context, with some of the over zealous fanaticism Indian media and supporters can show, I can understand the reaction.

And none of the media were filming his family. And the angry little man chose to single out one reporter. Not those who were holding the camera's.

 

[kickazz]

Pleasantly surprised I was wrong. Thought - on past experience- we would crumble chasing anything above 150. Shows how helpful it is to actually have a muddle order batsman in form…let alone an extra bowler. Will be interesting to see what happens when Green back in. Could they perhaps drop Marnus and leave Webster in? Would be an awfully useful attack

Webster looked like a batsman comfortably in form in both innings, on a sketchy wicket.

He stays for now.

Tried the ‘don’t you know who I am’ stand over approach.

Didn’t work.

 

[JimmyBC]

So where are all the bed wetters from yesterday?

 

[cats_09]

The ICC have confirmed our place in the WTC final at Lord's

 

[Achy Blakey Heart]

So glad we don’t have to see Kohli here for a while. I wish him the worst of luck.

 

[Xtreme]

He's a kid in his second Test. He's done a couple of done things, let's assume he'll learn from them.

He won't he'll be a BBL exclusive player within 36 months

Take it to the bank

Over Green? Or include both?

 

[kickazz]

Don't know, but he looked better that Konstas or Marnus. Different position and small sample size, sure. But he didn't look like going out.

 

[Aussie in exile]

A great win, and I did say IF India got a lead of 250+ it would have been hard for us, but they didn't, and e won with ease

 

[Iceman!]

Over Green? Or include both?

Green won't be fit for a while yet so still some time to make that decision.

 

[The hands of stone]

What a great series . Think I'll be having some decent test cricket withdrawals over the next few days .

Bumrah is a legend of the game and a generational star . Possible the best pace bowling display I have seen .

Boland was his 'boring' brilliant self. Lose Hazlewood and you gain Boland . Showed everyone how to bowl dry but ge threatening. Deadly duo of skills .

Webster looks ready made for test cricket after honing his craft on a fairly bowling friendly Bellerive.
Simply is the better option over Marsh and proved it .

Kholi has reverted to his old self . Can't talk with the willow so the angry little man is back . Should have got weeks for the shoulder charge but we know how those things work .

Great series and the better team won
