Australia v India

@KiwiMurph said in Australia v India:
Oram was an odd player in that statistically he put up some impressive numbers but aesthetically I could never quite take to him - for such a big man his bowling action was so dainty and lacked the pace you would expect and his batting whilst effective was heavily reliant on slogging the ball to certain parts of the ground.
Yeah his batting kinda regressed as I recall, he ended up batting nine in an ODI on one occasion.
I think James Franklin ( who did the reverse in that his bowling suffered while his batting improved slightly ) and Ian Butler ( who was promoted as a bit of a pinch hitter ) were ahead of him.
The Neesh is another who should have had a far longer test career, our answer to Stokes or so I thought

probably should ban those sort of celebrations lol
just a bit of seppo bullshit bought in by the West Indies
Nothing wrong with a hug, a kiss, a lick, a grope on the arse or a dry root.
You wearing your favourite t-shirt again?

We’ve had three.
Colin De Grandhomme? Opened the bowling a the MCG I believe
/tongue firmly in cheek...
#stillbetterthanmarsh
Jacob Oram had his moments too
Pat Cummins is superior to every all rounder you've mentioned

He’s done well to sneak to third on the list…..although look at some of the other chumps on there.
But the three I didn’t mention have him beat ( as all rounders, only one of them beats him purely on bowling )

Excellent bowling performance by Australia. They have seized the initiative in this Test in Day One.
Don’t underestimate what Bumrah might do.
Lots of pressure on him once again though. I wonder anyone else will step up ?
-
Do they employ an "umpires call" for caught behind? That was probably out but not sure it was conclusive enough to overturn the umpires decision
-
And lose a wicket by the end lol, sets tomorrow up beautifully

Konstas deserved that
Pipe the fuck down from the non strikers
At least Australia is producing another generation of cricketers that are easy to dislike. Their consistency is a thing of beauty.
