[TheParraboy]

This series has been brilliant

Hopefully MCG deck isnt a road and a batathon disaster

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Pant is the Indian Matt Wade if Matt Wade was shit

"I AM THE BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD AND YOUR JUST A STAND IN CAPTIAIN"

Just wow

 

[Eelectrica]

Damn. That should get us fired up for the rest of the series.
1-1 two fired up teams, got a treat coming up. After this.
Just get our batting upgraded and we'll be fine. His majesty thought this was going to be a walk in the park and we'd roll over.

Just wow

He's half right I suppose.

Best player in the world? Does he not recall Smith thoroughly outplaying him pretty much every time they come up against each other in Test Cricket?

F..k wish Smith was playing, seriously we are 2-0 up

Though we manage to win this series somehow with our top order, it will be something else

Just wow

Best available player anyway.

Without Smith he pretty much is. I reckon you need some ego to be the best. Like the sheer arrogance to even think it but then albeit making it a reality

He spanked us in 2014, he can’t bowl so not his fault they lost the series.

Smith got 4 hundreds in that series.

Just wow

Arrogant, but true on the first part and a good sledge on the second.

 

[TheParraboy]

Not disputing if he is right or wrong

 

[Meth]

Not disputing if he is right or wrong

Yeah, I get it. It is arrogant.

 

[Twizzle]

Its ironic that the BCCI would not play at the Gabba, so we prepare a Gabba type pitch for the second test

I know this one is a bit younger, hence a bit slower and slightly difference bounce but has the green top which the BCCI dont like and has acted similarly to that of the Gabba.

So what pitches are we going to prepare for the last couple ?

 

[Meth]

Best 1st Innings player in the world.

Just wow

Is he wrong though?

 

[JJ]

Best 1st Innings player in the world.

To be fair, his overall 4th innings average is 50

I get the hate for him, certainly his behaviour at times is terrible - but he's a terrific bat... I don't get the Australian hate for him, given he seems to try and be Australian - imitation being the sincerest form of flattery and all

Just wow

It's a good bit of banter... isn't it?

As others have said, he's right on both counts... Paine was good too... perhaps the microphones on is a good idea - then they have to be more controlled in what they say - would shut the likes of Warner up for sure... and force them to think a bit more
