Banter The No Dazzlering Big Cricket Thread

[Keys]

There’s still plenty in this pitch for Siraj and Krishna to be a handful - took 3 wickets each in the first dig

We also have a habit of making heroes out of nobodies. Joseph bowled us out last year with one foot for example

Katich just made the point on comms that there's an unwritten rule, if you dish it out, you've gotta be able to cop it back.

I love it, imagine being so soft you let a 19 year old get in your head.....a bit like Cockburn fans and Harley Reid

 

[FKASC]

Nah they’re carrying too many past it players this time around. Kohli and Rohit are cooked. Ashwin’s not very effective anymore. Shami injured. Pant will get games but isn’t fit because of his car crash. Will be a whitewash.

Aus will win the next 4 tests

**** I’m good

Did EP and Keys do an account swap or something?

This is going to be over before lunch at this rate.

What a choke from india

 

[Ochre]

Carved or cast, Ochre?

Carved at the SCG, cast at the MCG

 

[Keys]

Extras already our best batter

**** I’m good

To be fair, they will only win the next 3 (thanks Brisbane)

 

[Ochre]

He's not even out there, and this innings is still making Bumrah look good.

We are witnessing what this series would have been like without him.

 

[Godfather32]

That was a dumb shot

I’m not good with run chases, especially when it’s a lowish score

Seen too many failed chases we should’ve run down to not be pessimistic

Yep, same here. South Africa in 93/94 springs to mind here.

If India lose they’re going to use Bumrah’s absence as an excuse instead of addressing some obvious deficiencies, like:

-playing Rohit in three matches despite him having absolutely no form coming into the series
-Kohli’s deterioration due to age and continually getting out playing at fifth-stump bowling.
-supremely talented cricketers like Pant and Gill getting themselves out with brain fades.
-a lack of quality and experienced fast bowling depth, which resulted in an over reliance on the best fast bowler in the world, which very likely led to his current injury. This includes their fast-bowling all rounder, who looks very talented but had almost no impact with the ball.
-playing two spinning all-rounders in Melbourne and Sydney in conditions which barely merited having one spinner in the lineup, let alone two.

Yeah fair enough, I think no Bumrah tips the scales firmly in our favour though

 

[Godfather32]

Wtf kind of shot was that, like catching practice

 

[Dazzler9]

Shot Marnus

 

[Mulldogg]

Labuschagne should not be a guaranteed starter in the XI if he keeps getting out like that. Stupid shot

 

[squashface]

Jeez

 

[Godfather32]

 

[Goroyals22]

Konstas doing a worse shot than anyone expects opened an end up where new batsman are having to come in and get settled. Marnis dumb shot. Smith settle your stance for gods sake …

Can’t declare this a win already people.

 

[Biggie]

Hahah Aussies making this harder than it should

 

[Keys]

Relying on our frail batting lineup to win the series was always fraught with danger

 

[Biggie]

Head will either chase this score quickly or disappear shortly
