Australia v India

@NTA dunno. Thought you were having a sook. Couldn't work out why you thought the Indians would say nothing. Thought you were smearing them again when they've got nothing to do with puckowski.
Figured that even a silverfern XI with Mariner opening the bowling (because he's tall and skinny) would try to bounce puckowski, it's that obvious. Still don't know why you brought the Indians into it😒 -

Uh.... because they're playing against India?
Did you and Mick From Gold Coast got into the sherry early for NYE or something?
The point is: they won't take it easy on Pucovski just because he's had (a few too many) blows to the head. He's an opening batsman in a Test so if he's out there, he's fair game.

I'd be bowling beamers at him. Not out of malice, just lack of skill.

No shit Sherlock.
So what's the relevance of them, or any team "saying nothing"?
Sorry to waste your time, captain obvious I thought you had something insightful to say. Telling Wags fans that short bowling is an option in test cricket🤔
Anyway mate, nice to have one last stoush for the year and perhaps mine wins the dumbest post award then😉 - apologies for overestimating you again and happy New year mate (seriously👍)

Crowds for the SCG reduced from 50% capacity to 25% capacity.
SCG Test crowds reduced to 25 per cent of ground capacity
Officials respond to concerns about risks of COVID-19 spread at the SCG Test by reducing crowd numbers to a maximum of a quarter of the ground's capacity.
Possible showers predicted for Thursday and Friday at Moore Park but mostly clear thereafter. So it might even go until Day 5!

India are also reportedly shitty about having to go into hard lockdown for the Gabba test.
India reportedly raises concerns over Brisbane Test, Sydney ready to host both
SCG could host back-to-back Tests after India reportedly express concerns over having to play under quarantine conditions in Brisbane, preferring the fourth Test be played elsewhere.
However, a source in the Indian camp has reportedly expressed concern over the team being forced into a hard quarantine upon entry to Queensland, saying they would rather the final — and possibly deciding — Test be played elsewhere.
This was after five players reportedly broke the bubble in Melbourne:
Doctors warn fans to stay away from Sydney Test while Indian players isolate after potential COVID breach
An Indian cricket fan's social media video of five Test players sitting at a table in a Melbourne restaurant and comments that he hugged one of them spark an investigation over potential breaches of strict biosecurity protocols.
A video of some Indian players, including Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant, sitting at a table in a Melbourne restaurant has been posted on the Twitter account of Navaldeep Singh.

Firstly, fuck off if you don't like quarantine. It's what every other team has had to endure to play cricket this year.
Secondly, has Navaldeep received any threats yet?

@booboo don’t believe too much of what is being reported. Sounds like a bit of games going on before the Sydney test starts. Brad Haddin trying to egg it up last night too.

Besides, if India want to go home, who can stop them? Or blame them?
A sternly worded letter of dissatisfaction will have the bcci quaking I'm sure. Better to be decent hosts and accomodate all sides for this one off match.
All they have to announce is - "there's a deadly virus present in Queensland, so we're outta here thanks very much! - player safety etc blah...
You can't on the one hand hype up the scary virus to paralysis levels and then condemn visiting people for not wanting to be near it.
Haddin fucking around with his mouth too much again. If the Indians walk, aussie cricket loses, and not just on the field this time. Dickhead talk

Haddin being a fluffybunny?

Not sure if I've told anyone on here but fuck I hate that guy and I can't even remember why......

Do they split the test championship points in that case? In which case they all but guarantee themselves a place in the final?

@MN5 can hardly make out what happened in that quality footage

Haddin cheats like the fuckhead he is. That's all you need to know.

Providing the Christchurch weather cooperates India would need to win the third test wouldn't they? A draw or a loss would still see NZ & Australia be #1, #2.
