Cummins looks like he could run right through the Indians here.
He is some bowler. What a player.
-
That's appalling cricket. What the fuck was he thinking?
-
@mariner4life what up? Not watching currently.

@KiwiMurph said in Australia v India:
@booboo Sharma threw away his wicket by trying to smash Lyon.
He is probably equally disgusted that Lyon could potentially take more test wickets than Paddles and lashed out.
Doesn't help giving him one more but there you go.

Anderson and Broad have. I’ve just had to learn to live with it.

Talking Lyon for a sec. What's with the continual dragging up stories about his break up with his wife?
Articles in va r ious websites about the "heart warming" post she made (video of kids saying yay Dad 100 tests), then going on about their break up four years ago.
She must be:
a. Well connected in the media
b. Bitter as hell to drag it out -
Rohit Sharma's interesting stat
Home average: 𝟴𝟴.𝟯𝟯
Away average: 𝟮𝟳.𝟱𝟴
𝐃𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞: Steven Smith's test avg + 1.32The worst average margin (home-away) in test cricket history.
Still wondering why he got injured (himself) before an away test series?
Cut and pasted from a dodgy FB page.......
Are these stats accurate ? Surely not

spot on, looks right. Bizarre!

Greg Chappell, underarm bowl mastermind, pens letter to Tim Paine
The man who instigated the 1981 underarm bowling incident has some lessons to pass on.
Greg sounds like he regrets underarm 81 to this day

I bet he does, it generated so much controversy for nothing. I mean I wasn't actually alive when it happened but it still pisses me off. And the chances of him actually hitting a 6 on those massive boundaries with an old bat were almost zero.

Look up Anil Kumble bowling average Home V Away - it basically doubles

I was 8. What people forget was the hometown umpires, who fucked us by failing to give Martin Snedden's catch of Chappell in the deep among other things. It will live forever in notoriety and adds to the idea that Australia are dirty, along with Dyer the Liar, Michael Clarke telling Anderson he was going to have his arm broken, sandpaper etc

Was that pre neutral umpires?
I recall being impressed at how decisive umpires were from footage of his 10fer, I mean some of the shouts must have been so out the umpire's finger went up almost before the appeal ...
(You'd think it was Daryl Hare and Shane Warne ... )

Short memories around the place, Tim Paine was MoTM just two tests ago! Has the second highest batting average of any Aussie keeper (behind Gilchrist), and despite a tough few hours is still as good a gloveman as we have.
Banter was a bit much late, but they were pushing to win a crucial test, been in the field all day, and it was more annoying than offensive. Happy to give him the benefit of the doubt given his track record so far.
I missed this earlier in the week. How did we get here? Australia have their own Lee Germon (and the public and pundits are violently defending him).
This is the same team that saw Waugh and Taylor go out to bat series after series (winning at the same clip or better than this side) with the selectors effectively having sniper lasers tracking them every time they went out to bat and constant media headlines saying this was their last series/match if they didn't deliver?
I'm certainly not complaining as a NZer, but it is something I never thought we would see.
