***Official*** Australia in India 2017

[Compton]

I reckon Zampa plays before the end of the series.

 

[Burgey]

I'll let CW choose an avatar for me for a year if 3 spinners play. Just don't see it happening.

This could get very amusing.

 

[veganbob]

He said spinner, not chucker.

He didn't say drug cheat/match fixer so can't be warne .

 

[EggsOnToast]

Is this even being televised in Aus? I assumed it would be on Foxtel but can't see it in the guides

 

[Burgey]

Yeah there's a new Foxtel channel starting today which is going to show if. I think it's 507 or something - called Foxsports More

Checked on my Foxtel this morning and it was on one of the regular sports channel (505?) so will undoubtedly have to scroll through channels come match time to find it

 

[Burgey]

Wish this would hurry up and start. Frothing.

 

[centurymaker]

Do they really think Ashton Agar would do a better job as an all-rounder than M Marsh?

M Marsh could really complement the fast bowlers and even score some runs. Ashton Agar would be a gamble.

Thought I had everything sorted for the start but as usual with the best laid plans ......

About to spend a few minutes (probably hours) downloading Foxtel Go onto my phone and practice nodding sagely in the mirror so I can fool the people that I am meeting with during the first session that I am actually listening

 

[centurymaker]

Surely they are not going to drop Hazelwood for Ashton Agar. That would be a horrendous move lol! It's the sort of thing England kept doing..playing semi-allrounders and getting clobbered

 

[Compton]

Why is Ashton Agar playing test cricket?

I do this every day in the office when there's cricket on. It's something which can be done if you're consistent in your mannerisms. Consistency is the key here. Good luck, I reckon you've got this.

If Hazlewood's dropped I hope this turns out the worst way possible for us.

I'd like SOK to have a good one, but for sure. a couple of 150s against a 600 plus Indian innings might send a message.

Leaving Haze out of any side better have a medical reason or else it's stupidity.

 

[adub]

starts 2:30 Sydney time yeah?

 

[Burgey]

3pm i believe

 

[adub]

3pm i believe

Cheers.

Hopefully enough time to sort my Oils tix out before the first ball.

If there's a medical reason, they'll give us a throwback thursday to the workload era.

 

[Burgey]

They've got a show on at the Domain on Armistice Day I think. Hoping to go to that.

 

[adub]

Yeah, **** standing outside and hoping it doesn't piss down.

Rather drive down to the Gong.
