Top 5 run scorers, their averages and S/R in bold

Our openers let us down badly in this series, Finch and Hughes averaging low 30s. At least Finch got his runs quicker 86.75 to 74.25. That 74.25 strike rate from Hughes is by far and away the worst in this series from anyone who scored more than 40 runs for the series.

Went to bed to ignore Jimmy hitting a forgotten/ frivolous 100

What didnt make any sense was Australia had 50 odd runs to get with 5 overs remaining, if they had 5 wickets left, they probably would have pulled off that chase

Thank God that is over. Faulkner and Big Show have stood up with the bat.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Big effort by Rohit, Faulkner faulking excellent, The Show was just the show. But for mine there's something wrong when the game becomes nothing more than just a six hitting competition. Unfortunately young Indian fans love this shit and as they're the ones with an income we are going to see more of these types of games in the future.

Than f**k that this joke of a series is over, now real cricket can begin.

It's become a farce.

It's like a SOO match ending 72-68.

Heaps of tries and it was close but it would be a shitty game.
