Boxing Day Test: Australia v India @ MCG (Mon - Fri)

[BACCS]

The umpires really have thrown away a good start here

EFA.

 

[Magma]

lmao nowhere near

if it aint broke dont fix it i guess

 

[TheGoatBaron]

The umps made the correct call then and not one player is whinging there!

And Channel 9 goes to the news, instead of playing right to the end.

 

[ManWithNoName]

Cricket in HIGH DEFINITION!

How so? We've been branded racists for any little thing by India, one of their own makes a racist comment, they threaten to go home instead of copping a punishment, if an Australian did the same our own media would crucify them. Then they claim we and the umpires are cheats so when a system comes in to help the game be as fair as possible us cheating Aussies sign up right away, the 'cheated' Indians sook and don't play ball cause they get a bad run. There is hypocrit in all this but I fail to see how it's us.

You are joking right? Own back yard mate.

There are/were some serial sooks in the Indian team. Harbijhan, Ganguly, Sharma to name a few. But we could easily see those three with Ponting, McGrath, Waugh etc. Some of Ponting's solo performances are epic.

I reckon the West Indies were probably the best at it back in the day. They let their ball and bat do the talking.

Hey 9, the cricket looks pretty good in High Definition. Maybe you should try this on a full time basis...

 

[OzBomber]

Cricket in HD. My eyes!

But compare the actions of the BCCI and CA.

Supporters are entitled to sook.
Players shouldn't be sooking but some individuals will.
It is not acceptable for a sporting board to sook though.

Me thinks you're a racist tool not worth anyone's time.

[GreekLunatic]

Has Tony Greig bitched yet about DRS not being used. I think thats his hobby horse .Hussey missed it by alot.

 

[mike14]

[Flawed Genius]

Good God what is this magnificence?

Like I said numerous times already we probably were as bad and as I said we signed up to the drs right away and help get the technology to where it as good as it can be. We're on the 2011 thread here, I also recall CA don't make much of a fuss when something doesnt go their way and our players have accepted fines/suspensions for poor sporting conduct.

Not really. Said something along the lines of it should always be used and then they moved on.

Indians appealing yet another caught behind that the batsman didn't get near it


Wasn't third time lucky.

 

[ManWithNoName]

Are they seriously including a DROPPED CATCH in Classic CATCHES?

probably getting desperate

 

[Phil McCreviss]

I'm shattered. Was hoping I'd get an eyeful of Jennifer Aniston and now I have to watch the cricket.

Subtle dig at the umpires?

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Wonder if they handed over a bag full of cash in exchange for the new ball?
