@nzzp said in Australia v India:
Aussie commentators are the most one sided, irritating set I can remember.
If I could turn them off, I would. Seirously considering muting
Have you got Warne, Howie and Waugh? Can’t stand any of them and I’m at the office where it’s only Fox Sports and no free to air.

@nzzp you getting FTA feed? Ponting etc
I quite like Ponting commentating. He’s measured and has good insights without it being about him

Indians are batting like they are in NZ. They hate it when it moves around.

@nzzp said in Australia v India:
@NTA @Hooroo @ACT-Crusader got Warne et al.
Warne (to the edge that looked short): that looks like it carried by the body language
video: it doesn't carry
Will try a dodgy stream to get Ponting ... got to be better.
I think it did carry and he didn't get across to it. It landed after the glove I reckon.
Edit. No where near first slip but

He's just basically called the first three overs of the bowling plan, even the shorter ball to Agarwal just now.
Pointing calls the game, not the fucking horse shit like Warne

What's the thinking on the decision to bat first in a day/night test?
Good idea or bad idea?
Good idea. These games tend to come down to timing - you need to avoid batting at dusk if at all possible. You can't turn down a chance to bat in the day.

I should imagine players are used to playing at night these days. Question I'd have is whether the ball favours daylight or not.
-
@antipodean evidence to date suggests the pink ball at night is more difficult to play

Ponting is a bloody good commentator. He's actually pretty funny. Doesn't mind having a laugh at himself. And by fuck he's sharp in his analysis from a team and plan point of view. I have really turned around my opinion of him.
I'll take him and Isa Guha any day of the week
