Australian International Summer 2024/25

Siraj 2/19
Bumrah 2/27

Bumrah takes two for twenty every day of the week. The other bloke was a 0/100 operator.

It appears the bloke who sledged the bowler after getting out poked the bear to worse effect.

It’s so silly, neither of those conversations have had an effect on what has happened today on a pitch that favours bowlers.

If you don’t think the Indians have come out with extra intent over and above what they normally would’ve have the seriously you are delusional.

Starting day 2 none for, having been denied an extra over would make harder for anyteam to maintain their intent.

The game situation last night before the final ball was bowled was get out of here none down then come back tomorrow and get through the first session 2 down and get ready to make runs in the 3rd and 4th spells of the Indian bowlers.

Extra intent. I’m 100% certain their intent no matter what happened last night was to bowl well, hold their catches and take 10 wickets for as least runs as possible. I’m sure they weren’t just going out there to enjoy the Sydney sun.

If Khawaja had got forward to a half volley we may have started the day zero for.

[am Bays]

Don’t want to put the mozz on him but the former Temira Cres boy (Darwin Cricket Club) is lookin good on debut

[another grub]

Ive thrown some 3 corner jacks in the cot, hoping to fire the Mrs up tonight.

Mate Uzzie is a walking wicket ATM, and at any rate Sam's carry-on probably denied that extra over.

I don't disagree that Sam should keep it in check at the non-striker's end, but gee it's a reach to pin other blokes' dismissals on him.

[another grub]

50/50 IMHO

[whufc]

Yep if Sam didn’t waste that extra time we probably would have finished the day 2 for

It’s all mythical hyperhetical old theory rubbish……….now runs and hides.

Reread what I said, carefully, I didn’t say they wouldn’t come out with any intent but it would’ve been harder to maintain if it was none for still after half an hour as opposed to two for and then 4 for at drinks

Who do I agree with you, or Waugh, Ponting, Vaughn’s or Shastri (who said what Konstas did last night was just what “Team India” would’ve wanted.

Konstas will learn when to pick his moments

I agree Khawajas form was also a contributing factor in his dismissal.

[whufc]

Absolutely intent would have been harder to maintain if it was none for.

Instead Labuschagne copped a peach from the worlds best bowler and the finest of edges. Nothing to do with anything anyone said.

Mate you do realise when Konstas arked up last night it was already 5:30 so there was just one ball to go so there was never going to be another over

As I said he will learn game awareness

[RB]

I'm noticing some extra intent in Another Grub's posting this morning.

Two balls to go, at 5.27. The 5th ball was then bowled at 5.29.

What’s your theory then on teams ‘over trying’ going out to hard to early and not being able to sustain

India have been ordinary in the last half an hour of this session. I reckon they were too emotional early and suffering now

See how’s it all just bullshit theory to make excuses for poor processes, execution and performance. When the reality is Smith and Webster are batting really well.

That may be true, Bowl the sixth ball at 5:30 (6:00 pm Sydney time) there’s no way the umpires are getting in place for the next over, my point stands.

[dedja]

Shame, Smith had been batting really well until that.

That’s my point you can only sustained heighten intent for so long. It would have been like this half an hour earlier

On cue Smith gets out.

[another grub]

He's proabbly run his race too....

[RB]

Damn, Smith was playing with more fluency than I've seen from him for a while.

[whufc]

The old saying ‘bowlers win matches’

Another bullshit adage…… the one batter that can find a way to get 70-80 will probably win the test for their team.
