1st Test: Australia v India at Adelaide Dec 17-21 2020

[Twizzle]

just got our noses in front for mine, we need to have them out for less that 300 from here because we're gonna be 2 for f**k all

 

[hineyrulz]

The longer we bat in the day time the better, need to knock them over for under 280. We have two walking wickets opening so much pressure on the Glimmer twins.

 

[Smug Panther]

Looking forward to Smiffy and Labs opening the batting

 

[simmo1]

Pretty even I think.

India will be well on top of they bat most of the first session and/or get anywhere near 300. Could be 150-200 behind coming into the last session then a new ball tomorrow morning.

Need to knock over the tail in first hour to be on top imo.

 

[Bazal]

Warne deserves to die

I'd have thought a man like yourself would appreciate Warnie, a man who has the characteristics of both a slimy weasel and a complete cat

 

[_snafu_]

I’m predicting a triple century for the Admiral.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Looks like a pitch that a class player who applies himself can do well on.

Enter Wade.





In seriousness, enter Smith and Labuschagne.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

Day 2..

Glad I’m going today (and not yesterday..) to see both sides bat...

Joe Burns score predictions?

 

[TIGER14]

Any word on whether Rahane made it through the night? I'm half expecting to hear he was lynched.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

I’m predicting 14 runs for Burns. Mostly through slips / behind the wicket.

 

[Bazal]

I feel like Burns is going to either be a duck or a hundred, somehow. Either his form continues or he breaks through.

So watch him get a scratchy 35 because my predictions are normally about as good as the Mayans predicting the end of the world

 

[AlwaysGreen]

What Burns does will depend a lot on what Wade does.

If Wade stays in Burns will probably run himself out to avoid spending time with him.

A scratchy 35 will do nicely.

Baby steps for Burns. Hopefully he makes a Quiney.

Burns 9
Wade 25

We are twice as good as the Indian openers

 

[Hutty1986]

First baller for Boo-urns. And a third baller for derp Wade. We'll be 2/0.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

It will. But to think if he does, that’ll be seen as a great success.... not exactly reaching for the stars with him..

But I suppose if anything he’s picked in position.. And langer hasn’t opened with Wighton and Gutherson ..

The stars are out of reach,but the top bunk will be an improvement.

 

[Bazal]

I mean Burns is in woeful form but he does have four test hundreds and a best of 180. As well as 170 in Christchurch, which wasn't exactly a raging green top but was still an NZ wicket.

He can bat. No reason he can't hit back. Hopefully he does....

He’ll be right mate as you said, a real test of character today when he comes in. Wade I’m not so sure, he does something to prove though.
