Australia vs India @ SCG - Jan 6-10 - Day 3

[94_Eagles]

As soon as it left the bat my first reaction was that it was travelling too fast and won't be caught.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

I imagine Boof is thowing chairs in the pavilion now.

 

[dumb]

good thing you can bat smiffy

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Good over Starc, but you're going to have to get him bowled or LBW.

 

[Slax]

Starc has had no help from behind the wicket with the new ball. First Haddin keeps his feet in concrete and doesn't move now Smith drops one

 

[Xtreme]

Catches win matches and Smith has fluffed it twice so far.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Surely the ball travelling fast isn't an excuse in the slips?

 

[danielnajdek]

Stop making excuses for him ffs.
He should've caught that. Sick of them always making excuses when they drop a sitter.

 

[Mkcaptain]

I'm not particularly happy that these pitches are providing little assistance for the bowler, but these dropped catches and screwed run up chances make it hard to complain about the pitch.

 

[Yidaki]

Nope, he is currently eating a packet of lamingtons with custard.

 

[94_Eagles]

Screw the short cover, get more slips in and entice the drive.

 

[Gough]

Since the retirement of Warne and McGrath it seems curators in this country are far less inclined to prepare juicy wickets that deteriorate.

 

[Sprout]

Surely the ball travelling fast isn't an excuse in the slips?

At this level it should've been swallowed. Everyone including Clarke knows that.

 

[dumb]

harris needs to be in the slips to himself. if there was any man that could do it...

 

[94_Eagles]

Nope, he is currently eating a packet of lamingtons with custard.

*Greek salad

 

[Slax]

Enough dropped catches for channel 9 to run a 'classic dropped catches' segment next summer. Just need a company that makes butter to get on board for sponsorship.

Only problem with Ch9 classic/dropped catches is they won't show KPs effort from the superover the other night in the BBL, was one of the funniest catches I've ever seen in my life.

 

[BrownYouGun]

there it is! "Cherry" - S.K Warne

 

[Yidaki]

On comes the aggressive pie chucker.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

What did we do after dropping all those catches last game? Sit on our hands and assume it'd be different in the next match? Fuming.

 

[Harris Specter]

Back to the under 12's Smithy

 

[kBuck]

Rahul gonna have a brain fade like marsh did?

 

[Visions]

Surprised that they haven't done a viewers poll on whether they should have a third slip in place. They have gone on about it for a while.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Can't believe we let that guy get 100.

 

[BrownYouGun]

****ing hell Starc needed to keep him in the 90s over tea

 

[Yidaki]

Well done Rahul.
