Btw I thought Travis Head had been dropped from the team like 5 years ago.

How does this plodder keep flying under the radar? He's the Aussie James Vince.

I think we have to face it. India are a better team at test match cricket.
I disagree. The losses of Hometown Dave and Pucovski are huge.

In their absence Australia fielded their worst opening pair in 150 years of Test cricket.

It's put a huge hole in what was shaping up as a fairly formidable test team. Perhaps Australia's best since the golden years.

Should have picked Harris. He's shit but he's better than Wade. Given injuries Burns and Harris would have been ok, and Burns got a rough one.

Smith looked rubbish. Doubt we'll see that again this series. We're definitely still better than India they're opening with Mayank Agarwal and a half eaten lollypop they found under the couch

Sure would have been nice to get Kohli for about 60 runs less when we have such a fragile batting line up. You're the best Timmy!

Surely with the extra review and Kohli the batsman you give it a look. The way this pitch is playing and our usual collapse, 240ish is looking pretty good.
Though the great Chaps says we should ditch DRS altogether!

Sure, in hindsight.

If he overruled the bowler and it was wrong I can't imagine you'd be backing him though.

Fact remains we had a disabled person opening the batting and the world's best bat looked like he'd had eighteen Woodstocks.

Unrucky, but he's on track for that match saving 150 in the fourth based on my prediction of 7
