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

What are you talking about? The umpires no longer offer the light and when they did it was to the batsmen. If the Indians don't want to bowl spin from both ends then that's their choice.

they did this time, I heard the interview

 

[AlwaysGreen]

It's pretty gloomy at my joint.

Then turn the f**king light on hiney.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I didn't hear the interview - did they offer the light or did they suggest to the Indians that if they bowled spin it would be play on?

they offered the light from what I heard

 

[hineyrulz]

Then turn the f**king light on hiney.

:lol:

 

[God-King Dean]

Watson.

The worst human being ever.

 

[Sphagnum]

They didn't offer it, they told everyone they were leaving. Dhoni mustn't have wanted to bowl spin.

 

[hineyrulz]

Yep i'm sure the umps asked Dhoni who he would be bowling and as soon as he would have said i'm bowling the quicks they were out of there. I don't blame him for not wanting to bowl a part time spinner to Smith, he was murdering their top line spinner.

 

[Twizzle]

The law has changed, you can't offer the light.

The decision as to whether conditions are so bad as to warrant such action is one for the umpires alone to make.

Dhoni said he would bowl spin from one end

 

[El Diablo]

he had to bowl it from both ends or the umps would call it a day

 

[hineyrulz]

Dhoni said he would bowl spin from one end

Which is a fair enough decision on his part. Pissing down at my place, looks like we are going to cop a big huge massive unit of a storm with huge levers that has all the toys.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I've got no issue with Dhoni or any other captain opting not to bowl the bowlers they want.

Unbelievably Big strong storm.

[Twizzle]

The rain has stopped

 

[Eddie Rattlehead]

Be good to see Smith and Marsh get through the first session today and put some real pressure on the Indians.

 

[madunit]

A big day where Big captain big Smith has to pull all the massive levers & use all his big toys within his big body to rack up a big score for the big Aussies at this big ground on a big day 3 in big december, the month where many big kids get big toys and some other big units will get some big levers.

Hopefully we can at least bat till tea and even things up, then have india 5/60 at stumps
