Australia v India

@KiwiMurph said in Australia v India:
Bumrah isn't even bowling over 2
Yeah this one is a wrap
That’s a shame, these two are revelling in the fact he’s not there. Scoring very quick
-
@NTA for me thats been one of a few missing pieces from the Indians not having a quality 3rd seamer , sure not having Bumrah available has’nt helped in this last innings bit i also suspect hes been over used because of not having a quality 3rd paceman
Lack of runs from some of their senior guys when it really mattered a bit more application and time the 4th could have been saved and another 100 runs would’nt have gone a miss in this test
Some crucial dropped catches along the way have’nt helped
I reckon Matt Henry would have been a tricky proposition on this track.
Fair play to the Aussies as much as its irks me to say -

At times even their 2nd pace man has been absent.
Prasidh is doing an excellent job this test

Yeah but that’s nothing new. India have always been short of quality pacemen

"It's clearly within the laws of the game, the rules and regulations. There's been no charges laid, but to have an opposition swarm the non-striker like that, we've got a duty of care to our player to make sure he's okay and in a headspace to go out there and perform."
LOL WTF is going on when adult Test players are considered by the coach to be that delicate?
-
@antipodean Konstas has clearly been given the role to go out and antagonise India, and based on the evidence you'd say he's ticking that box.
Lot of accusations flying around about who is in the face of whom, but it makes good theatre.
I see it as no different to Steve Waugh's "mental disintegration" tactic - for either side.
McDonald should probably just sit back and enjoy coaching such generational talent in terms of his bowling lineup, and let thse through to the keeper.
-
@antipodean the irony of Australia complaining about this...

@bayimports said in Australia v India:
Pant definitely changed his flights looking to get home today, seriously looks likely to get out every second ball
Given the number of half volleys at the moment I'd say the bowlers decided to do the same.
Or because these guys suck without Bumrah to spearhead.
