    Are we on a knife-edge yet? I'm feeling it kind of is now?

    Fuck he would be disappointed. First ball of the over and went hard instead of waiting. Sudden shift given Jadeja doesn't look like getting the pads on any time soon.

    An over before the second new ball, too. That opens up the Indians big time.

    I feel a bit sorry for anyone missing out on a ton, but fuck he threw that away.

    @barbarian said in Australia v India:

    I reckon Siraj did the right thing. In fact that's exactly how the process should work if a player thinks they are being abused.

    He stopped the game, and told the authorities what he thought he heard. That allowed a real time investigation, where witnesses could be questioned as well. And it turns out he obviously misheard something, because there was no racist abuse.

    The alternative is what has happened in the past, waiting until the end of the day to make a accusation well after the fans have filed out, abusers and witnesses alike. That makes it almost impossible to find out if anything did occur, and if so to hold the perpetrators accountable.

    Now it probably took 5 minutes too long, but at least we got an outcome where for once we seem to know what was said and by whom. If we can keep that process it will lead to far better outcomes for everyone, as it will better punish people who abuse players, but also better protect fans where something might be misheard or taken in the wrong context.

    A lesson from it is, with 13 man squads for concussions etc, get the man subbed, and get him, match referee , police etc. To thrash it out in real time. Game carries on.

    I dont think, personally, that controlling the words of every one of 5,000 , let alone 50,000 people , is an achievable goal.

    Not often you see Cummins bowl an over that poor - especially with the new ball.

    Pucovski doesn't look healthy. Shoulder or face plant?

    Jadeja has the pads on. Not liking putting the gloves on.

    Vihari has done little with the bat all series, and now pulls a hammy running a quick single...

    Lack of runs = tight hammies

    Are we watching India or Pakistan? The collapse in the first test, running each other out with gay abandon, doing hammies...
