Lovely last 10 minutes this

More fun to blame Virat though.

If Kohli was a true leader he would have sacrificed himself and allowed the superior cricketer to continue to bat.

Is it me or has our summer sorta shorned over the years? Growing up it felt like Australia still played at home in feb and this year they’re off to Sri Lanka in Jan.

Another aspect of having a longer summer would be helping improve the standard of BBL having the Aussie test stars play the back end. Then have an ODi/T20 series after I guess

T20 cricket, especially the IPL and the BBL when focusing on our cricket summer, has reduced the window for international cricket

It’s virtually killed ODIs as part of our summer

And it’s only going to get worse

Missed the late carnage this afternoon and just watched the last few overs on replay

Aside from the tumbling wickets, how good was Sam Konstas having a fat time out in the field winding up the crowd. So good to see a young guy enjoying himself

And in typical Aussie style, we get the "He's getting ahead of himself".

Need Lyon to start having an impact with the ball. Hasn’t been required to do much on pace friendly wickets but when he has bowled he’s not been threatening
