1st Test: Australia v India at Adelaide Dec 6-10 2018 - INDIA WIN BY 31 RUNS

Thank God Shane Warne never captained Australia

Id rather he did, and never became a commentator

that way, would have exposed how crap a captain he was, no one would hire him post cricket

The deck looking safe at this stage

No silly shots, plenty of 1s and 2s, the odd 4 from a bad ball

that's it

Early mention of Darryl Cullinan, Warne finding his feet early today.

he'll never get over the "looks like you spent it eating" retort

fmd, Warne again talking about Starc in next

"promotes a positive message"

LOL

Back to the Botox plastic man!

So the Aussie batsman will go out there and try to win it before lunch and get rolled for 150.

Never doubt the dumb in our side

 

[Sphagnum]

We somehow need to take a decent chunk out before the new ball in 23 overs

 

[TheParraboy]

that's a great delivery by Ishant

 

[TheParraboy]

interesting they didn't check for the no ball?

Ishant is known for stepping over in the effort ball

Right, it's all down to Marsh and Paine now.

I mentioned earlier that this team scored 362 in the UAE. But the top/middle order put in there. Khawaja 141. Head 71. Paine 61*. As good and compensatory as the Aussie tail is, this is probably too much to bear if these 2 don't put together a partnership of 75-100 for the 6th wicket.

 

[TheParraboy]

Paine maiden test ton today?

How much would that be paying?

Think your Australian brethren just want you to stop with the speculation lol

Highest partnership for the sixth wicket in Adelaide is 200 between Clarke and Haddin in 2013 v England- 1st innings though

Either Sharma has turned into Fred 'the demon Spofforth or Head is shit.

Gotta be 2013?

 

[WaznTheGreat]

If Australia was a bond they would be one of those CCC bonds with a 100% default chance

Warren Buffet 1
Australia 0

correct

Mitch Marsh would have hoiked that into Chappellis backyard in Glenelg

would have been hellava shot

 

[Sphagnum]

India will just stangle the life out of us here. They have to find a way to keep the scoreboard ticking over so kholi is forced to keep one eye on the scoreboard.
