Australia v India

[NTA]

Marnus is such a fuckwit

@MN5 said in Australia v India:

Let’s see if India have a real go at this total

Wickets in hand will be the key.

They'll just bat normally for two sessions and try to T20 it at the end if they've got wickets in hand.

Absolutely.

The way the game is played these days time won’t be a factor.

Good old fashioned things like wickets in hand will be though !

Is that 10-fer for Bumrah? Would be his first ever.

Na just the nine…..

Surprising how many top bowlers never manage a 10fer in their careers

[NTA]

A few beating the bat this morning

[NTA]

Starc rotated out after 5 overs.

That isn't a fully fit bowler

[NTA]

Fuck me get Marnus out to the boundary

Even I'm sick of hearing him

[NTA]

Boland very unlucky there.

[NTA]

Wow. This is India's second best opening stand in the series. At 20 runs...

[NTA]

Justin Langer was on Channel 7 this morning arguing for the continued inclusion of Mitch Marsh. Mate, give it a rest ..

[Chris B.]

@NTA Mitch averaging 19 with the bat and 42 with the ball this year. That's pretty weak for an Australian.

Wouldn't be playing if Green was available. Should be someone younger who won't be any worse.

[NTA]

Cummins strikes.
Rohit sucks.

[KiwiMurph]

Had to chuckle at the commentators trying to convince themselves Rohit Sharma looked better

Nek minnit... out

[NTA]

BTW @MN5 Harsha Bogle on ABC Radio this morning, discussing Marnus' appeals.

"I think he's only second to Mohammed Siraj with DRS. Siraj would appeal for DRS bowling in the nets to nobody"

[NTA]

Cummins with 2 quick strikes.
Starc with a rank piece of bait which Kohli swallows.

Advantage Australia

[KiwiMurph]

Kohli is as useless as Sharma

Why play that shot 2 mins prior to lunch

In context: worse than Smith's massive swipe yesterday

[KiwiMurph]

Funny how cricket works

Starc bowls about 25 balls worthy of a wicket and finally gets a wicket with one of his less threatening deliveries

I think it was pretty smart bowling from Starc in that he was putting them short of a length up to that point, and then threw that one up for him to have a nibble at knowing Kohli doesn't like to be tied down. And it worked. Very poor cricket from Kohli though, him getting out seemed a bit inevitable, it's been a long while since he's had any real decent patch of form in the test arena.
