***Official*** Australia in India 2017

[Spark]

see like why is o'keefe bowling if this is the field you're gonna set?

 

[Contra]

Well played Saha, chance to double it in the next session.

Gets crucial runs every series and people still crap on him coz muh batting average.

Yeah if you want to criticise Australia's approach, it's that the bowling changes have been far too conservative and run risk of players breaking down. This is a pretty dead deck, so while bowling tightly does have advantages, surely you'd want to change things up?

Saha's issue is that he's not a good enough #6 which leads to issues if India use a 6/5 combo. Under a more traditional batting lineup he's fine.

 

[Spark]

omg something happened

but i think it's going down

 

[Contra]

ahhh.. massive wicket.

 

[Contra]

OMG OMG YES! Thank god

 

[Spark]

[mr_mister]

[cnerd123]

Even on this front, he's actually averaging 38 since Dhoni retired.

 

[Shri]

Looked missing live tbh.

 

[burr]

hehehe, that actually is quite funny.

 

[OverratedSanity]

If we get a 50 run lead, it puts massive pressure on Australia not to lollapse in the 3rd innings.

 

[morgieb]

Turning point. Think Australia lose their heads now.

He doesn't bat at 6 anyways though

Well now he doesn't, but he did for large parts of the England series, and more crucially, away from home...
