Indians open with 2 spinners, Ashwin getting Burns first ball of the innings, and putting him on a hattrick which he doesn't get.
Test cricket with all sorts of novelty
Poms 258 ahead with 9 second innings wickets intact. 150 odd overs left in the match
Yeah the Windies opened with that big tall fat spinner too.
What the fuck has the game become ?!?!?
Better 🙂 more plusses in the test cricket is cool column
Sub continent season i guess.
Yeah I hear all that but there's just something about a couple of pace bowlers opening up and getting hostile.
we can't get too righteous. We have opened up with CdGH's dibbly dobblies i am sure of it.

At the SCG no less. A sackable offence for Stead, given Southee was "rested".

I’m sure he’s a tiny bit quicker than that. He’s no Chris Harris or Rod Latham.
Fair point though. He’s also no Jeff Thomson or Shoiab Akhtar

Anderson with two wickets in an over. Lack of bounce becoming an issue
Some swing for Anderson too
Superb bowling. He's just kept on developing, and getting reverse in India is impressive. England even more thoroughly in the box seat now

James Anderson wow. A fast-medium bowler who debuted in 2003. Absolutely astonishing.
He's played as many test seasons as Shane Bond played tests.
Bond was better though

The legendary Rahkeem Cornwall
West Indies find subcontinent weapon in Rahkeem Cornwall
His accuracy, calm head and ability to bowl long makes the offspinning allrounder invaluable to the side

So, SA is really really pissed at Aus Cricket (and possibly rightly so). Cancelling a tour based on your personal medical advice probably should be a default. That said, this quote from SA was classic SA politics - independent experts FROM SA
Moseki cited a clause from WTC competition terms that calls for independent experts to determine whether the health risks are severe enough to prevent Australia from touring, and asked for those experts to come from within South Africa.
Tour postponement: CSA lodges official complaint against Cricket Australia with ICC
CSA is invoking both the WTC and the FTP agreement terms in search of points on the table, as well as financial compensation from CA

Kylo gets shown the money
Thanks Indian Cricket
What a year he’s had. The boy has massive potential

@canefan I watched a bit of that auction last night and thought it was highly likely that Big Kyle would wake up with a smile on his face.
Seemed like fast bowlers and all rounders were at a premium and no-one needed batsmen.
I saw Morris, Maxwell and Jhye Richardson go for big bucks and Adam Milne do pretty well for someone who hasn't played international cricket for a good while.
Meanwhile Steve Smith and Dawad Malan (the world's No. 1 ranked T20 batsman) went for relative pittances. And other big names weren't wanted at all.
It's a pity that Steve Smith isn't coming to NZ on this current tour, because Kyle would have a ready-made sledge to welcome him with.
"What are doing batting at 4 for Australia? - You minimum-wage motherfucker!"
-
most of the players from Aus who missed out i can understand except
I would have taken Ben McDermott, especially at the price he was available for.
Surprised Mitch Marsh isn't over there cashing in.
How the fuck did Ben Cutting get a gig?
-
also, i love how every time Michael Clarke opens his mouth, he proves just how fucking dumb he really is
Michael, the reason Aaron Finch didn't get a gig is because last year he sucked in the IPL, and then, to back it up, he couldn't buy a run in the BBL.
And i guess that answers the other one of your questions, i think you'll find it's probably your national selectors have got it wrong.
