4th Test: Australia v India at SCG Jan 3-7 2019 - MATCH DRAWN

[Hutty1986]

Ah, so this is a new bar set for stupidity. Not only has every single run of Davey Warner's career been hit on a flat track, he is incapable of even hitting the ball off the square outside of Oz. I still remember that "flat" Hobart deck he scored an unbeaten ton on in his second test match.

 

[Valheru]

Renshaw? Lol play and miss specialist. Major deficiencies outside his off stump for mine.

Just keep pushing for a convicted cheat who didn’t and probably still doesn’t understand his position as vice captain in the Australian cricket team.

Lol 'convicted'

If Statsgururower had his way we wouldn’t send anyone over, we’d send a calculator over to crunch those numbers he likes so much........

That was a great hundred. Tough, in hard conditions

You'd have to admit, though, that it took until the last tour of Bangladesh for him to score another of that quality

Don’t forget the flat tracks of South Africa as well. He loves playing on those roads.

Pffft, calculator? Number crunching speciallist!

 

[hineyrulz]

Khawaja shouldn’t be in the side period

lol well who plays genius???

Both Darshes and Lasange obviously.

He absolutely flattened a strong SA side in their own backyard in 2014, even in the test we got pumped in that series, he still stood up. He was immense against a world class pace attack.

Runs in the 1st innings is great to set the game up and is very important but the most crucial innings usually is the 3rd innings of the test whether batting or bowling especially if the game is fairly even up until that point. Warner and Khawaja are the 2nd and 3rd best batsmen in the country daylight 4th so its irrelevant anyway they need to be in the side no matter where they play. Anyone you replace them with won't be capable of doing the job.

Not really the same level as the Hobart and Bangladesh hundreds. Good but not world class. The conditions are pretty similar over there to here, really. Well, they were before all their pitches started dying, but that's a different discussion

The bloke is undoubtedly a flat track bully, but like I've said, that's not the reason I wouldn't have him in the side.

You also labelled Hayden a flat track bully. Him and Warner are better than that imo-though Dave needs hundreds in English conditions.

Lol flicked over to see what was happening, Warnie was seriously trying to suggest Yasir Shah as the best spinner in the world.

He looked like it against us.

Definitely better in Asia, but NZ seems to have very little idea of how to play him. Averages 25.35 against us. We always struggle.

 

[Meth]

The Fox panel were talking about Shaun Marsh this morning and one of them suggested Shaun Marsh is a world class batsman but is a nervous starter.

I keep telling my wife that I'm a world class sexual performer but a nervous starter

 

[Front-Rower]

How so?

Spot uses stats to justify Warner’s fantastic tour of England in ‘15 yet when the stats get shown to be skewed stats are then somehow bad

Spot uses stats - yay!

I'm a nervous starter and an early finisher. f**king dynamite otherwise, though.

ha. I'm an explosive finisher. Probably the equivalent of '6 and out' first ball faced.

 

[TIGER14]

Match Officials can go do one.
We might suck, but at least give us some cricket to watch.

 

[Timbo]

It's a sham there wasn't more play yesterday.

Pretty gutted the top order didn't show some intestinal fortitude in Melbourne. The Indian meltdown on Reddit if they'd been denied a win here would have been the best thing since sliced bread.

Gold lol.

 

[Sphagnum]

Lol India suck. They could only beat these plodders 2-1.
