He's dropped two today :p

Even Warner doesn't have as good a spring in his step as he normally does.

I don't think you can blame the fielding coach - some of these have been school boy mistakes - there's a fundamental lack of athleticism among this bunch

a lot of it is concentration

its warm and humid, nothing doing for 200 deliveries, your mind isn't gonna be at its sharpest

no excuses, some of the drops you just don't do a this level

It seems to be pretty disheartening cricket to be playing. Flat pitch, nothing for the bowlers, batsmen playing well.

Still, 2-0 up in the series. A tough day at the office can be good for a young captain.

Kohli shifting up a gear. Maybe he thinks they can still win this. If they get our total in the middle session of day 4 and declare...it's game on.

Mike Young isn't new,he has been around the Aus Cricket team since he was a fetus

Mike Young > Greg Mullygrubbered

Yeh, I knew that. I just meant that changing coaches isn't going to change what is happening in the field at the moment. The under 12's at the club down the road from me would be taking a lot of these dropped catches. Can't blame a coach for that. Might be able to get the ground fielding back to the standard it used to be though

Not necessarily the issue today, but compared to what we are used too, this team is definately down on athleticism.

Case in point just happened. Punter eats that up.

They wanted the Veggie man to bowl faster and than replaced him with someone who bowls the same pace(Josh Hazelplod) lol.

so you've watched about 3 overs of this test match and made that observation, congratulations, you must be very pleased with that

Haze bowls at 140+ generally and that was with the old ball so he was just rolling his arm over waiting for the new ball, just so you know next time
