Border Gavaskar Trophy, India v Australia, 1st Test 9-13 Feb, 1430hrs at Nagpur

[Dead Eye Didak]

Why play back on your stumps, just asking for trouble......
India made batting look easy on this wicket, whether you're right or left handed, and we had the GOAT off spinner bowling...!!!

 

[freo_leo29]

Just checking our over rate was fine?

Can't afford to be docked any points


Should be fine with all the spin right?

Why after all these years is smith still the only Australian that is genuinely prepared to use his feet

Bring back Darren Lehmann

 

[hawkman]

Shane Watson would've reviewed that.

Looked like Marnus wanted to

 

[BACCS]

This will be a grind… at least Warner is digging in

Michael Clarke another

 

[LukeParkerno1]

The all star game

Lol never watched it

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Why after all these years is smith still the only Australian that is genuinely prepared to use his feet

Handscomb as well in fairness

 

[Xtreme]

Davey still hanging tough. A big job awaits to rescue the innings.

 

[Pistol Night]

Shane Watson would've reviewed that.

He’d review a clean bowled

 

[The Sultan]

Warner may arse his way to 20 off 100 balls

 

[11kgm]

Done in this session real possibility

 

[Achy Blakey Heart]

I'm a CEO and if any of my staff was doing that I would be seriously pissed. Very bad look.

Probably why you are such a campaigner to work for.

 

[Jimthegreat]

He is not wanting him to just slog..but to show a little more intent and put a bit of pressure on the bowler

look at marnus atm..batting sensibly and ticking along the scoring..thats good batting atm warner is just surviving

Yes, just look for consistent singles. If you bat to survive you don't have a hope.

No-one one from any SENA country is going to survive on that deck now. It's pinning ridiculously. Just shows how dumb we are the way we bowled on it. Lyon's darts on middle and leg, while they throw it up and let the dry, shaved spot do it's work.

 

[Plugger35]

Warner needs a wider bat, even then he would probably still struggle to hit it.

 

[Pistol Night]

Done in this session real possibility

3 days in the nets

 

[danielnajdek]

That was awfully played by Marnus.

 

[Belnakor]

Is there some kind of joke Warner is aware of that we aren’t ?

Stop smiling so much it’s ****ing test cricket not park cricket.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Ashwin is too leg side

 

[largebus]

Hopefully that's the last we see of warner in whites. It probably won't be.

 

[hawkman]

3 days in the nets

Can't tire them out like that

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Is there some kind of joke Warner is aware of that we aren’t ?

Stop smiling so much it’s ******* test cricket not park cricket.

He’s not allowed to smile now?

 

[Belnakor]

Did Warner even get ball on ball that over. Looks like he is playing with a rope not a bat.

 

[Pistol Night]

I'm a CEO and if any of my staff was doing that I would be seriously pissed. Very bad look.

Gina?

 

[BACCS]

We're doing a fair old job of turning this pitch back into a minefield.

India’s top order were carried by Sharma, the rest offered very little. Just need someone to do the anchor type innings that Sharma provided and find someone that can go with them for a 100+ partnership.
