“I don’t know whether it is naive enthusiasm or that’s just the way he has always played his game through the juniors and likes to have high energy and get involved in the game, but really there was no need for Sam to get involved there.

“I think he should have bit his tongue and it’s got nothing to do with him actually and it might have broken the concentration of Khawaja."

Mark Waugh. Good judge.


If it broke Khawaja concentration it says how seriously close he is to his test career ending.


Next they'll be pinning the JFK assassination on Konstas.


His shots aren't that good.

Needs to work on getting the single so he doesn't just start swinging like he has now.

1-2% extra effort can be all that is required at this level

As I type he ramps a 140 which I don’t mind as it is bat doing the talking


And some times you can ‘over try’ as well.

Whatever it’s done his the only bloke that has even looked close to being able to rattle Bumrah. Is it enough to make a score we will find out in the next hour

As I type Bumrah bowls for byes. His worst spells have been when Konstas is out there.

I blame Travis Head for Konstas dismissal.

He fired up Siraj in Adelaide and ever since Siraj has bowled heaps better.

Ok let’s all be consistent and lay the boots into Head. Now Siraj is getting him out.

Should have kept his mouth shut and walked off when he was out and that wouldn’t have happened today.

Despite the evidence you continue down that path. I admire your stubbornness. =D>
