Rubbish review

[PatowalongaPirate]

Smith has now levelled up with Mark Taylor in test centuries (19)
He's done it in 51 less test matches than Tubby.

Interesting stat that. He's long, long way away from being anywhere near Tubby as a skipper, hopefully the gap closes with time. I reckon Tubs would rather have started his career against a Smudger era Windies than the one he faced.

The gap will close a long way if they win this series! This will be more impressive than Taylor's 1995 West Indies win. And Border's 1989 Ashes victory.

Maybe, I'm from a different era, that Ashes win was like winning lotto for a cricket nuffie back then. AB is our version of a cricketing deity. Without him in the mid to late 80's we were completely fu***d. Not the tactically best skipper we've had but he saved Australian cricket from complete ruin.

Yep, I wouldn't rate winning this series above those mentioned... But it would be a famous series win that I will gladly bask in haha.

Tubby opened the batting against some of the best opening bowlers in Test history. A brilliant cricketing brain. His record is extremely sound.

The aussie media should apologise to the curator because this is a pretty good bloody wicket. Much more like the England series, good luck bowling them out on these tracks. This is where Starc would have been massive, cummins is good but the left armer is always a little more dangerous.

Get the feeling the pitch will deteriorate rapidly today

[LaughingKookaburra]

Agree it was showing a couple signs yesterday. Reckon once it starts it will turn shithouse quickly. We are still in the box seat her but need to roll them for at most 350

[PatowalongaPirate]

Could be time for something different. Throw the ball to Maxwell.

[whufc]

Not sure Smith rates Maxwell as a bowler evidence being the lack of using him in the one day series

[Jim05]

Lol Kohli, can't make runs on this pitch

[locky801]

Lol Kohli, can't make runs on this pitch

Bit harsh, he has a sore shoulder, well that will be the excuse

[Jim05]

Mitch Marsh>Kohli

[Corona Man]

Nup MM is a dead set spud, but Kohli is just a flat out c**t

[Jim05]

This series
Mitch Marsh 48 runs @12
Kohli 46 runs @ 9.2

4/317, come on lads wicket please!!!

[bennymacca]

This is crucial session. If we can get a few wickets this session we are in the box seat but if they finish 4 or 5 for 400 then I reckon they would be in front

[whufc]

Great performance here by Hazelwood

[whufc]

Ashwin throwing the teddy out the cot!!!

What a tool have players not learnt they don't reverse deciscion a unless there is clear contact.

[bennymacca]

Cracking delivery by cummins.

You can really see the value of pure pace here.
