4th Test: Australia v India at Gabba Jan 15-19, 2021

Tim Akmal

Pant's now the second best keeper in the series.

 

[hineyrulz]

I honestly reckon Tim Paine is the shittest permanent captain we've had in our history

I cannot think of anyone even close to being as bad

Graham Yallop??? At least he could bat, Ian Craig who got the gig far too early in his career and then got sick on a tour of Pakistan i think.

But yeah little Timmy Paine top of the pops.

 

[undertaker]

This line of argument would hold a bit more weight if he managed to take more of the chances they create, wouldn't it?

Three missed chances in consecutive Tests just off Pant that should've been regulation

Paine may not be able to force the "best bowling attack in the world" to take wickets, but he can at least try to hold the catches and take the stumpings that come his way. That, and also the influence he has in the field placings....

That final drop catch by Paine in Sydney after his tirade at Ashwin was an absolute embarrassment, and made him look like a goose.

Pants on fire

 

[T-Boon]

f**k off idiot, his the best keeper we have but he has too much on he’s plate

it is irrelevant if he is our best keeper. He is not a good keeper. You shouldn’t make a guy captain if he isn’t good at his job.

Kim Hughes bruss

Kim Hughes was a world class batsman who got absolutley murdered by the Windies, laughable suggestion Bruss.

*Liar!!! Liar!!


Marnus on about 3 hours too late.

 

[Sphagnum]

If this merkin gets a wicket, Tim Paine needs a bullet

Smith was worse. Punter was certainly no better tactically.

It's a bit of a myth that Paine is this abysmal captain. People just like to take the easiest blame route.

Across the board as a nation we have a huge leadership issue that we have never addressed and you could leave a small child unsupervised in the pool of our batting depth with no fear of them drowning

 

[Hutty1986]

Lol praying for a part timer stick. Placeholder paine has thrown in the towel.

[hineyrulz]

The bruised Corpse with Pads gets to 50.

 

[undertaker]

Labuschagne trying to take Paine out of the game with that throw.

 

[hineyrulz]

Bahahahahaha Paine got nutted by Labs throw.


Good on you Marnus, something most of the Aussie public bar @Bazal have wanted since Headingly.

WORST post ever. The last paragraph is concerning jibberish.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Looks like they're going for it now.

Who is the bigger Myth, Starc or Gary???

I never rated Punter as a captain and i thought Smith was average but to suggest Paine is better??? Bahahahahahaha!!! Baz you have gone full Pou.

 

[JamesRustle]

Starc from the other end... should go for 8 an over now

Graham Yallop was captain because he was one of the few who had even played test cricket in that series. It was the Australian third team.
