Disappointing day so far, gotta break this partnership

These guys won't die wondering - this is far from over.

Giving your magic lamp a rub?

 

[VineValerian]

Aussies really hopeless at bowling out India's lower order, except for one Test so far.
They'll stuff up another opportunity to get the AB/Sunny trophy back.
Think maybe it's time to effect a changing of the guard.
Do we start to look like this in a year or so's time:
Hunt
Konstas
McSweeney
Green
Head
O Davies
Carey
Bartlett
Morris
Johnson
Murphy
-------------------
Reserves:
O Davies
J Sangha
Sutherland

I'm done with this Konstas. Get a duck, go back to the Big Bash and take these commentators with you. Konstas fatigue

Not working this time. Gotta bad feeling this will go the same way as the 2020/21 series.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Could be the 2nd series in a row against them where our only win came here. We should play them at Adelaide Oval all the time in a 5 match series

Just needed a bit more rubbing

The forbidden number.

Good knock.

Day 3 crowd is 83,073. This is the largest Day 3 crowd ever for a Boxing Day Test. It is also the largest Day 3 crowd for an MCG Test since January 1937 (87,798 - Bradman 56* at stumps). Total attendance so far is 255,462. Record total attendance for a Boxing Day Test is 271,865 v England in 2013."

Lol Damien Fleming said Kohli is animated and he rarely shows emotion. I think Flemo is drunk on the avenue of apprehension.

An avalanche of adjectives..

 

[Greasyrhys]

Advantage india, really need Head and/or Marnus to get a big score.

Edit: Damn, Head has had a shocker of a test.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Marsh lasts 4 balls after the big rap from Langer.

But McSweeney batted out of position for 3 tests was the problem.

 

[Rising Power]

ffs

 

[philreich]

Need something special from the lower order.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Be lucky to make 120 at this rate.

 

[raptalia]

Australia 6/94. An absolute ****ing disaster.

In case anyone missed it, Mitchell Marsh 0.

That makes 73 runs @ 10.42 for the series to go with 3 wickets @ 45.66. What does this guy bring to the side? What is it the selectors see that I cannot see? I have to be missing something. Marsh's selection is akin to that of Jed McEntee for the Power.

The Indians are having a good laugh at Australia's expense on cricinfo. I cannot say that I blame 'em.

Make no mistake, we've massively blown our lead, but this is still game on. If we can somehow piece together another 80-100 here we could even be just about favourites.

Just post on there that Bumrah is the best chucker since Murali and watch them lose their

 

[snozulu]

Justin Langer would you drop Marsh for Sydney. No I don't like the Aussie team changing much. Sound familiar
