2nd Test: Australia v West Indies D/N @ Gabba Jan 25-27, 2024

[Mr. Shaman]

Oh look a decent length ball gets a wicket on a lower order batter:

 

[This Year?]

lol these bums are being bent over by security guards and bobsledders

 

[Eelectrica]

I guess when Patty gets out it’s time for Usi to throw the bat.

 

[hineyrulz]

LMFAO!! A drunk merkin runs into the field and of course palms the bald security guard off like Inglis did on Sowie.

Highlight of the day.

 

[mave]

Carey is a highly intelligent cricketer.
Which makes him a Mensa level fumbleballer

Complacency or arrogance?


This is weird l

We are just aren’t much chop.

Bit of both probably and it's awesome to see the Windies aiming up.

Inability/unwillingness to bat time?

FFS, we had Mark Waugh complaining the WI tailenders were scoring too slowly in the first session today.

Test Cricket has been absolutely bastardised by T20 rubbish.....and it shows the second any sort of pressure, swing, seam, cloud, weather, is applied.

 

[mave]

Like they are sucking Carey's dk for 65 off 49.....

That's great son, but we needed 150 off 300.

And I reckon some would be whinging khawaja is going too slow

It's been coming. The bowlers have been carrying the batting all summer.

 

[Eelectrica]

With not much tail left he doesn’t have too many options now other than to play his shots

Still, Windies are a terrible side. If weather allows you’ll probably win but then issues will be ignored?

 

[This Year?]

haha love it. Good tough bowling and acknowledgment from the batter.

 

[Chins get the wins]

Can't be the world's best side alllll the time. Here in Australia we settle for being number 1 about 75%

 

[Eelectrica]

Patty can stick around, so Usi doesn’t need to try and hit a six off every ball either.

 

[This Year?]

I'm surprised @SLRBRONCOS isn't there selling bald caps at the Gabba.

 

[Incorrect]

The 2 Joseph's look really good prospects with the ball. Good pace and hostility. Really hope they can build on their potential. They look different propositions than your Darren Sammy's and Sheldon Cottrell's et al who I hoped would be the new breed of fast bowling Carribbean cartel...

Would probably take a loss here followed by losing the NZ tests to see any big questions asked of the senior batsmen. The real problem is there isn't much depth in shield to replace them.
