Sids does the job again.

That shot by Kohli exemplifies the summer the Indian are having.

Wasn't a wicket delivery but Kohli turned it into one with a bad shot.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Genuine question: Could this Indian team even beat New Zealand in a series?

:lol:

Do you think India would celebrate harder than their WC win if it finished 1-1?

Genuine question: Could Australia even beat New Zealand in a series?

A. No.

Siddle you f**king beauty!

 

[aussies1st]

And just like that Siddle has turned the session around.

In India it would have been four.

Is it on the BCCI/CA to organise tour games or do the ICC do it as part of their schedule? India haven't adjusted at all. A couple of hits at bloody Manuka Oval is terrible preparation.

The Poms recognised this last year.

Siddle Siddle!!

 

[ElectricEelMan]

The Indian batsmen are just plain awful.
There is nothing innocuous in this pitch and the bowling has been good and tight but not really amazing ... a very similar story to Sydney.

 

[Red Bear]

Canberra >>>> Wollongong, unfortunately champ. In fact Canberra >>> most Australian cities in terms of living conditions, education, income etc etc.

Beach + coastline :lol: does not = Great town. You lose.

Anyways, back to the cricket.

Again, im very jealous of you in Canberra, just wish I lived there myself.:sarcasm:

Anyway, anyone hear Drew Morphett and Kerry O'Keeffe on radio earlier?
Drew (talking about the Siddle chant going around) - "Not used to hearing a Victorian being cheered in Perth, must be a group of travelling Victorians"

Kerry - "Yeah...It's a slow chant"
:lol:

You don't know what innocuous means, do you?

 

[Red Bear]

Siddle getting rewards, been bowling well ever since McDermott got involved

 

[Fast Eddie]

Siddle needs to change up his wicket celebration.

 

[skeepe]

Fast Eddie still living vicariously through the Australian team I see.

 

[ElectricEelMan]

You don't know what innocuous means, do you?

Of course I do.
It means harmless.
I just didn't check what I wrote before I sent it.

Because Im watching the game?

The Poms recognised this last year.

The poms nailed their preperation last year (first time in many years) with both tour games and fit players, huge part of how they hit the ground running in the test series and really smashed us

Preparation is the key.

I don't think India will ever have the drive to put in like the Poms did last year though.

Tony Greig looks more and more like Mr Burns with each passing year.
