@Hooroo said in Aussie Cricket:
That is a really bad decision isn't it? There was a gap between ball and bat when snicko was registering???
I think it's correct. The end on camera shot is missing the frame where it tickles the bat. We have the frame just before and after. The other camera angles and snicko is enough

512/6
Pant with a century and no signs India are interested in fielding.

So much for the Australian bowlers being their strength ( to make up for the poor batting lineup)

Reminds me of the Steve Waugh/Mark Taylor days when you'd just assume they'd declare in the wvening session but they'd bat on the next morning and rack up 600-650 and still win easy.
Just demoralise them.

622/7d
Australia to face 10 overs before stumps

Should've had The Waj for a duck, but Pant was a bit tired from his batting and grassed a pretty regulation caught behind - which might have put panic in the ranks.
Warnie is suggesting the only way Oz win is to declare 199 behind and hope Kohli will set them a target (or maybe they can bowl India out in two sessions).
I think the horse has bolted.
Winning 3-1 would be nice, but 2-1 will be fine.

@Chris-B you have to admire Aussie optimism.
When the opposition scores 622, there is no winning option. None whatsoever
Especially not given this batting lineup. They are poked, and their commentators are delusional

You think they're capable of avoiding the follow on? ie, Can they score 423?
Do you reckon India would bother with setting a target?
My answers:
- probably not
- no way in hell

2 shows. Shit and no.
When you are 2-1 up over the Aussies in a series, in Aussie ...

Rare interview another step forward for Warner
Rare interview another step forward for Warner
David Warner's first public comments since Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft's controversial interviews barely raised a ripple – which is a good thing for him.
David Warner's first public comments since Steve Smith and Cameron Bancroft's controversial interviews have reinforced how he is winning the PR battle of the Newlands trio.
Warner made a rare media appearance this week in Bangladesh, where he is playing in its national Twenty20 competition.
Though he would undoubtedly have been given a more thorough grilling in Australia, there was nothing sinister in the choice of location. Warner has spoken at every league he has played – from the NT Strike, to the Global T20 in Canada, Sydney grade cricket and now the Bangladesh Premier League.
The only news value from his unremarkable press conference was that he had spoken rather than what was said.
Selection for Australia was up to the selectors, he said. Being a father and husband was his priority, he said, and now that he is playing in Bangladesh his goal was to get his team to the top.
The interview barely raised a ripple at the SCG on Friday, in contrast to the hot reception given to Smith and Bancroft on Boxing Day and the days leading up to it.
That senior Cricket Australia figures are now noting how mature Warner has been is noteworthy in itself. There would hardly have been a tear shed at CA in April if Warner had tucked his bat under his arm and never come back.
Some are wondering if Warner, now under the management of James Erskine, who once had Greg Norman, Tiger Woods and Shane Warne on his books, is listening more to his advisors.
Warner's value to the national team grows with every day they take to the field as it becomes apparent how important he is to their chances of winning anything.
