3rd Test: Australia v India at SCG Jan 7-11 2021

[undertaker]

Lyon bowling way too fast too often

And this has always been the issue I've had with Lyon since he made his debut.

Without a top-spinner, arm ball, ball that turns the other way from the standard off-break delivery or playing on a pitch that isn't a rank turner, he's been proven to be too one-dimensional when the pressure is on and has this habit of trying to spear the ball into the stumps when he gets nervous (or "dot-ball cricket" as it's called in white ball matches over the past decade since the rise of T20).

As a result, flight and spin are sacrificed.

Really good bowling by Starc. Absolutely no pressure on the batsman at all.

 

[The Charlatan]

We need to bowl them out to win, so Starc bowls short and a foot down leg side.

Makes sense.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Starc bowling complete trash. No threat at all

SLOW IT DOWN NATHAN.

 

[hineyrulz]

This is absolute BS with the chest guard, wear it or don’t wear it but stop wasting more time.

 

[undertaker]

Lyon's trajectory is too flat.

He really needs to flight the ball more and get Vihari driving off the front foot.

 

[Sphagnum]

I don’t think I’ve ever been more infuriated by a day of cricket. Not once has Paine done anything today that suited the circumstances of play

This calls for one man.....a man of experience...Shaun Marsh

 

[This Year?]

This game is giving me covid.

 

[Haffa]

25 overs remaining. Starc and Lyon don't look threatening so let's keep them on

 

[hineyrulz]

India deserve to draw this, we don’t deserve shit.


Keep bowling short and wide down leg side.


Elite tactics.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

f**k me this is pure and utter garbage from Starc

Grow some f**king balls Shaime and get him off

 

[undertaker]

This is absolute BS with the chest guard, wear it or don’t wear it but stop wasting more time.

There has been so much time wasting in test matches that even with the extra 30 minutes after scheduled stumps, teams still can't get the 90 overs bowled.

I would love to see the ICC start handing out suspensions for this.

 

[Sphagnum]

I notice they’re not showing starc’s pitch map. It’d look like the SCG had herpes

Elite tactics.

If Magic Mike didn't throw away his wicket they would have won. I still reckon these dabbers and blockers could win if they bothered to play a shot or 2.

Or his face.

 

[Incorrect]

If nothing else, today should at least put the ongoing talk about this bowling attack being our best ever well and truly to bed...
