4th Test: India v Australia at Dharamsala on Mar 25-29, 2017

[undertaker]

Only 12 Australians (including Smith just now) have scored 20 test centuries or more. That is pretty good from Smudge

And he's only 27.

Assuming he can remain relatively injury free and play for at least another 10 years, I think he's going to go very close to Tendulkar's 15k+ test run haul

Steve Smith is amazing.

Also this is probably the best setting for a cricket ground i have seen. Amazing

No use throwing up the frappe as inspiration for this team,it didn't work last time

What about some mcdonaldland cookies?

The lure of oral sex seemed to do the job last time

If we can get to 5/250 i'll offer up some cookies

The only way we'll get there is if Mayor McCheese was in the team instead of Wadey.

Sherwin Campbell was better than David Warner

Remember back in the mid-'90s when Ch9 had that Toyota banner competition (promoted by Mahatma Cote, ala Greg Ritchie), where you brought a banner to the game with the Toyota logo:

My first live cricket match I went to was West Indies vs Pakistan at the SCG in '97 and our (my dad and I) banner was "The Windies with Campbell with Sher-Win". Later one of the officiating judges came up to us at the end of the game just before Pakistan hit the winning runs and said we would've won the $500 had the Windies won the game. Sadly, they got rissoled by 8 wickets. The highlight of the night was being able to sneak past security guards into the Bradman stand during the dinner break and actually did meet Greg Ritchie outside the commentary box, got his autograph and a photo.

All that said though, yeah, Sherwin Campbell was a very underrated opening batsmen during the '90s. One of the last batsmen to have the balls and wear those helmets without the grill.

Such a picturesque ground.

Sounds like its turning quite a bit already. Would 300 be competitive?

Im gonna need at least 960 to be confident with Lyon

No.

Smith out. We'll be lucky to reach 250 now let alone 300.

No cookies

I agree. One of the most picturesque grounds in the world. Love that camera angle the tv broadcasters showed with the mountains in the background:

The closest any of the Australian grounds had to compete with that view was Adelaide Oval before the redevelopment in 2010.

30 more runs max, how disappointing.

Great innings Smith, shame no one else can match it with you.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Geez Maccas is really a jinx on this team,let's try a different takeaway chain

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I'm still confident Wadey can get us close to 500.

 

[Hutty1986]

Haha oh fcking hell. 1/144 and this rabble is going to be rolled for 220. Not going to get any better chance of a series win in India and Smith aside, the batsmen have thrown it away

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Is it any wonder i post nonsense when i have to flick channels between Australian cricket team and Parramatta,how does my brain even work still
