How long are they bowling these 2.

How long are they bowling these 2.

Probably know they haven't got much choice.

Reddy bowled well in the first innings but spin has been ineffective

 

[Crow-eater]

Tons up.

62 to go.

 

[Cromulant]

Jasprit must be bad if he can't get out there.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

I do like Uzzy . He has had a rough run but always a battler. Been worse players than him around.

 

[Firewalker]

No happier person in the world than Usman when Bumrah broke down

 

[Cromulant]

Little wobble.....

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Bugger, I had to post that.

…and it gets tight again, bloody hell. This Test team really struggle to do anything easy even when things seemingly get easier for them

 

[Mostyn]

Mate seriously.... it was chest height off a good length.

Yeah, but it wasn't a good length, it was short. Watch it again. Smith was just massively out of position.

It reared up, but if he wasn't a half year out of his crease and two steps to off in a weird wide stance, he could have easily handled it.

Maybe I'm just frustrated by Smith ...

I know its Travs game but reaching for a wide ball worries me.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

This situation is made for Travis. Have faith.

Now the powerball numbers please.

 

[Firewalker]

Either way this is a perfect result for Indian fans, they always need something to bitch and moan about and to play the victim, it will be Australia only winning because Bumrah broke down and that Australia doctored the pitch so we can never whine about them doctoring their pitches and then they’ll mention sandpaper and maybe burn an effigy of Gambhir & Rohit.

He's a big game player...

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Krishna looks their most dangerous bowler. Need to see him off after lunch.

Should have played more than this last Test.

Think we should just pick shield players who average near 60 more often, they seem to work out

Particularly when half our test batsmen are out of form.

We would have probably lost this game if Marsh played ahead of Webster, which would have meant India would have retained the trophy.

Webster looks like he belongs. Came in at a tough time.

 

[Cromulant]

These 2 and Ussie have gone at almost a run a ball and played cricket shots.

Granted there's no Bumrah and now no Siraj.... but it shows you don't have to go running at bowling and being reckless

Reckon he keeps his place when Green comes back into the team.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

What a memorable debut!

Not the Aussie selector way. You play out of form players until they retire.
