Australia v India

[Donsteppa]

Starc will soon front if he gets to bowl at the lower order.

@KiwiMurph said in Australia v India:

think young Gill got a bit nervous in the 90s. Great innings.

A bit of excitement. He had a few big blows to get the blood up and then lost his concentration.

Ouch

[NTA]

Shit he does not look good.

[KiwiMurph]

@NTA You have to wonder how long he can hold out

[ACT Crusader]

What a length ball from Hazelwood! Not really a short ball but the bounce has stung Pujara. He’s a bad man.

[Donsteppa]

The ghost of Shane Watson remains.

[KiwiMurph]

Was that Marnus talking them into another review?

[NTA]

I'm not sure that would bounce nearly as high as DRS suggested

[KiwiMurph]

@NTA it's pretty obvious DRS is shit when it comes to bounce

[NTA]

@KiwiMurph yeah.

But still: NEVER ask Marnus.

[NTA]

Fucking hell Pujara surely must go off for three blows to the head?

[barbarian]

This is great cricket. Good bowling, great batting, all results on the table.

[Donsteppa]

The wall of Pujara is being chipped away at with regular amounts of explosive.

[Godder]

How is repeatedly hitting a batsman in the head legal?

[NTA]

Lyon seems to have found a couple of foot marks to work with

[NTA]

Jammy blighter

[KiwiMurph]

@NTA think he's earned some luck after that barrage.

[NTA]

@KiwiMurph I dunno. He didn't engage in anything like evasive maneuvers for the blow on the arm.

[KiwiMurph]

@NTA yeah he certainly has a risky 'technique' against the short stuff.

I think it's more on Pujara for technique in terms of shot/evasion selection.

Yet imagine if it was Harold Larwood bowling.
