I Dont' Like Cricket, Oh No, I Love it, Yeah

[Twizzle]

good start, India 3/57 at lunch

Beau Webster is a big unit

 

[JokerEel]

Slow by India but I guess that's the plan weather the pitch and when it flattens out make the runs.

Let's hope we can get 3 more before tea

a lot of chat about Kholi's non catch, I think a lot of people think it's black and white, either out or not but there is a little thing called benefit of the doubt which must go to the batsman, unfortunately

I know everyone says benefit of the doubt goes to the batsmen but is it officially in the rule book, or just something that everyone assumes

Smith! You drongo!

If Smith got a clean go at it he would have dropped it, so it's academic.

Pant right now

Bumrah is going to have a fun time bowling before stumps.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Off to the SCG today

Hopefully Smudge will get his 38 runs to 10k run mark the roar will be enormous i reckon.

And Konstas/Bumrah fireworks.

He has got under there skin big time

 

[Eelementary]

Scott Boland...take a bow.

I thought he was an average Sheffield Shield bowler, but he is killing it at Test level.

He's becoming our strike bowler.

Onya, Scotty!

Giving the batsman the benefit of the doubt? It's in the law

Why going in favour of the batsman on lbws is more than just a tradition in cricket

Yea but nothing explicit in the laws of the game. That article is just some guys interpretation.

yeah, I'd say because it's not an actual law by the sounds of it

I think it's moreso how the umpires are told to umpire and as long as they consistently umpire that way then I don't have an issue with it

Five wickets before lunch is not good

 

[T-Boon]

I love it. Lets find someone to take a stand and get us to fiddy ahead.

Thats only 50% correct. I mean it depends on which side you're on.

Beau Knows Cricket!

 

[Twizzle]

Slug goes OK with bat and ball, can catch too

 

[Avenger]

For someone that has lost interest in cricket I must say that this series has been a breath of fresh air. India do not tour enough. We should make them come every second summer after the Ashes.

Okays folks name something you like as much as Virat Kohli likes the sixth stump line.
