5th Test: Australia v India @ SCG Jan 3-7, 2025

[Chins get the wins]

There was no indication or talk in the lead up to his debut that he would play this way. It's clearly a game plan specifically to counter Bumrah.

Boomers are really struggling with this

 

[Twizzle]

settle down Sam

 

[Tweed Titan]

Konstas has an incredible ability to play behind the wicket. On top of that he's got plenty of good conventional shots too. He's going to be something if he doesn't get too carried away.

Forcing teams to waste a fielder at third man will open up a lot of easy singles for him.

 

[Twizzle]

conventional doesn't work for big Sam

 

[hineyrulz]

I'm sorry you can't consistently score runs at test level playing this way. It's always a matter of time.

 

[Bazal]

Konstas is way too loose. The talents there, the brains aren't

 

[Tweed Titan]

Aaaaand I jinxed him.

 

[_snafu_]

He caught one.

 

[JJ]

Like I said Crawley…

It's better than gently nudging at balls on this pitch

If only he would take them, instead of looking for the fence every second ball.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

They set it up, they allowed him to play loose and set him up in that wicket. Good player, I'm sure he'll learn from that.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Yeah, we're boned.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Depends on what Capt / coach have told him too. Interesting

[PARRA_FAN]

You're kidding. Not Head

 

[_snafu_]

We’ll lose this.

[Desert Qlder]
