[Hooroo]

Comedy Aussie and it's not making me laugh!!!!

Grrrrr This will go down as the stinkest Aussie team ever!

I wish Smith was allowed to play

[Siam]

How would we look without Kane and Ross I wonder?

And if we'd spent the last 2 years being fuckwits and blatantly cheating haw haw haw 🤗

That's the weakest Aussie batting lineup probably in my entire lifetime. Heavily reliant on Waj to score big, and he's not even that great.

Remember the good ole days where guys would plunder 10,000 runs in the Sheffield Shield @ over 50 and still not be good enough to get picked..

good?

For then, not us

It’s good for us now..

First ball of the day and Hoff gets his third.

ENGAGE THE COLLAPSITRON!

Fucking called it.

Well the plucky kids from the wrong end of town got within 15 of the greatest team ever, first innings.

When they should have had a handy lead.

Who should be leading?

[NTA]

@booboo us. Couple of stupid shots from Finch and Marsh probably enjoyed us 100 more runs

[booboo]

Just saw this on Twitter and thought of @NTA ...

"Steve Smith's greatest failing as captain was not getting Shaun Marsh to sandpaper the ball"

And Mitch

So Sky NZ can’t handle the game starting 30mins early today?

They finally realised.. just missed an over

Ridiculous considering everyone knew the start time yesterday

[Chris B.]

Man that was a dumb shot by Ashwin!

Guy going well at the other end , just bunnies behind you and getting close to the edge of what Australia could conceivably make.

So loft it into the legside field, where several fielders are waiting!

[No Quarter]

With Smith and Warner that'd be an interesting chase. I reckon 100 too many for this lineup though. Would be hilarious if they got over the line though, coz fuck India.

[Chris B.]

@no-quarter Ishant overstepping when he had Finch wasn't a great start, but yeah - it didn't look easy to bat out there and you wonder quite who will make the century Oz will probably need.

I think the Indians will be pretty comfortable right now. Another 50 runs and the gate probably shut though.

Classic hearing the Aussie commentators banging on about how the momentum has swung back to Australia, and teh Indians have missed a trick. FFS, 323 is almost unchaseable at most grounds, and no-one has got close at Adelaide. There is massive turn out of the footmarks, and Australia will ahve to put up 250 tomorrow to get there. It is very one sided right now, but you wouldn't know hearing these bastards. Playing to their audience.

In fairness, it's been beers, champers and red wine fuelling this post, but fark those Aussie commentators they are muppets

@nzzp saw this from ABC Status Guru Ric Finlay - guy has some fascinating ways of looking at what is already a stats-laden game.
