    We are useless tossers.

    Having lost the toss, Cricinfo better have the correct story and Wags playing!

    Cricinfo have 2 different teams listed. I guess we'll have to wait to see who runs out to know for sure.

    @nzzp An oldie but a goodie! 🙂

    But seriously, what proportion of tosses have we won in the past five years? We seem to be at the whim of the opposition captain far more often than dictating terms!

    Commentators saying India won all 5 tosses on the tour. That's a 1 in 32 chance if the coins are fair.

    @damo Fuck - it looks like it's Somerville.

    Put me on record - bad decision!

    Let's hope there is some swing early. Rip through them and we can bat days 2 and 3.

    Bit of movement.

    Good first over from Timmah.

    Some buffet balls in the mix, and a soggy outfield in places.

    16/0 after 2.1 overs, after being 0/0 after 1. Gill is some player.

    I thought Wagner was a certainty. I’m gutted to see him out

    Stead certainly has his selectorial moments. A bit like no Southee at the SCG.

    there was at least an argument there that he was absolutely cooked, adn getting smoked by the Aussies.

    But yeah. He does random at times. No chance he ever wins or gets close to a Test Championship, an ODI title, or a T20 world cup. Noooooo chance at all....

    Yep, a top coach who has occasional puzzling selections...

    The upshot of no cooked Southee was CdG opening the bowling at a gentle 120kmph on a New Years test at the SCG...

    I still feel like Peth was sliding doors on that series. A bit of prep, not picking someone on debut who breaks down, and a smidge of luck for Wags to get Smith, and that's a different game. The nicks and edges that just fell short or clear of fielders was annoying -- but Peak Smith is some player.

    Then we just got cooked in the field, and eaten by a pink ball, and never recovered in the series. So disappointing.
