GABBA 2nd Test: Australia v India Dec 17-21, 2014

[El Diablo]

i think it's just heat, not injury

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Yes but some here are seem to think that if we're not bowling teams out for 40 and wining by an innings and 789 runs every match we're shit and 57 changes need to be made to the team. Let's give a bit of credit to the opposition. Vijay played a peach of an innings and Rahane is batting well.

 

[8Ball]

Flat pitch. The difference between a reasonable day and India being on top was Marsh's dropped catches.

 

[BunniesMan]

Ironman Shane Watson. Indestructible. Unstoppable.

Informed Player Management?

Yep, our quicks hardly have a bowl and people wonder why they continually break down :lol:

 

[8Ball]

Brayshaw: So much falls onto the massive shoulders of Johnson now.

 

[TheParraboy]

Notch will get a wicket before stumps, he is good for it

I wonder if he had one hand on the microphone and one hand under the desk when saying that?

 

[BunniesMan]

83 overs on a clear day. How many did India get through on day 1 of Adelaide?

 

[AlwaysGreen]

India are on top.

Cant win em all

 

[hineyrulz]

Gee the umps had to get another over in there, thats 7 overs lost. And people wonder why we struggle to get 90 overs in a day regularly.

 

[hineyrulz]

Cant win em all

:lol::lol::lol:

 

[AlwaysGreen]

25 overs in the 1st session
27 in the 2nd
31 in the 3rd

 

[TheParraboy]

Stumps day 1: India 4/311

Plan for day 2, bowl India out for under 450 would be an achievement

 

[TheParraboy]

25 overs in the 1st session
27 in the 2nd
31 in the 3rd

3rd session went for 30min longer

 

[lockyno1]

Starc injured is a blessing in disguise, the bloke is an absolute hack. Getting a few ODI wickets with blokes trying to hit you out of the ground does not equal a test cricketer.

 

[Meth]

So how did Smith look as captain?

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Sulieman Benn would be proud of that bowling performance

 

[Pete Cash]

So how did Smith look as captain?

Bit hard to judge really. He was ok there were a few issues I had but its to be expected. He took a lot of pressure off Kholi by taking Haze out the attack straight away but we got Kholi cheap so its a bit who cares.

I don't think you can judge a captain on a test match where all his fast bowlers are falling to bits really.
