Neville for Hads and Burns for Sunshine.

Works for me, totally wasted that start now. Just like we did in the UAE.

 

[Twizzle]

nope

i pick up GC TV

so do I but it was gone as well

came back on just as Hads got out

 

[jargan83]

Well that's a shit of a way to end the day.

The Night Watchman is a terrible idea. If you're a good enough bat you should be able to see off 3 or 4 overs.

 

[Dutchy]

Cowan Bailey Burns all scoring ok today. Cowan hit 140odd.

 

[Twizzle]

Quiney made runs today

 

[Twizzle]

Nearly time for Clarkey to retire, he cant make it through one test let alone a whole series

 

[Twatface Magee]

And he's only in the team to be VC. Sends Lyon in to save his own ass, gets out anyway.

A shame Pup wasn't at the ground.

That's the worst part.
He was stand in captain and didn't back himself.

 

[blaza88z]

night watchman is a terrible idea and is a sign that they aren't confident in Haddin's ability against the new ball as a batsman, in which case they need to drop him as there are better options available

I think we're in a good position, should be able to get to 400 tomorrow and with our bowlers I would expect us to be able to bowl India out for less than 400

Haddin is just an ordinary player who had a purple patch. Never has convinced me otherwise. It is just that Whiteman isn't ready, and Neville would be no better than Haddin.

 

[umina panther]

Super Smiffy will lead us to 550+

lol

 

[TheParraboy]

Biggest let down for me today was Rogers and Sunshine

We bag Maxwell for stupid shots, but these two know better and got out to stupid shots,. Balls they should have either let go or hit for boundaries, it was really that simple.

 

[Twatface Magee]

I'd like to see Nevill or Carters given a go.

 

[Mr Alfonso Saitungpaipau]

Tim Paine has been dropped from Tassie Poffo.

Man stop calling me moffo/poffo whatever give it a rest. I don't know wtf you are on about

You're a f**kwit

Still believe Watson is a great too? FFS

Pretty even day, big toss to win, Aust still ahead - playing Clarke was a risk...

 

[Timbo]

Haddin always struggles in situations like this because he always looks to play very straight. The second new ball was nibbling around a bit and light was fading.

Still our best by a light year.

 

[tomdl]

Still our best by a light year.

But how long can they justify picking a bloke that hasn't score more than 23 in his last 10 or so tests?

 

[benched tiger]

I couldn't believe the night watchman being sent in,even more unbelieveable when you consider the bowling attack was tired at the end of the day,no demons in the wicket and with brillant sunshine a plenty....it sure did back fire.Hadds must of been
fatigued for not going out and facing the 2nd new ball after sitting in the sheds for most of first days play of this test series.

As long as there is no better option, which there isn't
