That Seven commentary team looks unlistenable, the b-list commentators available from the late 90-00's and some pretty cynical picks for diversity. Oh and Bruce 2000 during the intermission - outstanding.
Most good cricket commentators have been good skippers who thought the game well or absolute battlers who were lucky to get a handful of caps. Seems to hold true for that group although Gillespie may be an exception.

gee, in a huge shock, the Adelaide Oval is expected to favour the batsmen.

Can you list the comms team? I have no idea and can only listen in silence at work

India win the toss and bat

Hazlewood the fucking gun gets the first wicket of the Aussie test summer.

That made my choice easier too
2 most hatiest sides meeting normally makes it a hard choice
Easier when 1 side is missing 2 of the most unlikeable players from the 150 years of test cricket. -

I find it hard to truly hate Warner cos he's just so damn entertaining to watch.
He's no Brad Haddin ( first of many haty mentions for the summer )

That just makes me hate him more!
To be honest, I've found Smith to be one of the more likable Australian captains - possibly because he's followed on from Michael Clarke - who I can't stand!
