Shami's got rhythm today.

 

[Starfighter]

Handscomb is a glorified domestic batsman. His technique means he'll never be successful at the top level. Lo and behold he's been found out again.

Someone remind me of what he did to get recalled in the first place.

Next test XI:

Burns
Harris
Khawaja
S Marsh
Finch
Head
Paine
Cummins
Starc
Lyon
Hazlewood

 

[OverratedSanity]

I don't see the point of a leg slip for the line Ashwin is bowling tbh

 

[Starfighter]

Virtually the entire batting lineup is playing for their position in the team and that adds another layer of pressure

Anyway, we’re just going to have to cop losses until Smith returns, a couple of others emerge and the selectors are shot

Shoot our news media while you're at it. A South African approach to chicanery would be nice.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Way too short from Ashwin. Pitch it up, ****.

Wait for the sweep going straight up in the air.

Keeper would get those anyway

Scored two 50s vs the worst bowling attack in the shield (QLD) and a ton vs the second worst (SA).

S Marsh
Finch

Paine
Cummins
Starc
Lyon
Hazlewood

I'd take this but it's not going to stop us throwing our wickets away. We also need less dry pitches to nullify Ashwin against our left handers.

 

[ajdude]

we could probably still win this with just 3 bowlers.

omg now you've done it, india are gonna lose now, you didn't gambhir

 

[Kirkut]

Get Marsh out before the day ends, and then this test win will seem very possible.

 

[OverratedSanity]

omg now you've done it, india are gonna lose now, you didn't gambhir

Exactly. Unexpectedly poor from *****, he's been solid all test and goes and does thus in crunch time.

 

[ajdude]

if moises actually bowled these days he'd be a reasonable shout for an allrounder position, isn't in the worst form

 

[Starfighter]

Did Fleming just describe Shami as side on?

Scored two 50s vs the worst bowling attack in the shield (QLD) and a ton vs the second worst (SA).

Hmm. I so wish Renshaw hadn't decided to stink things up again and the selectors didn't have a hate boner for Maxwell (and Burns it seems).

 

[stephen]

Ffs Burns got out for 74. 26 more runs and he'd be considered. As it is he's hit 4 half centuries in the last 6 shield games and is averaging 47.

 

[Shri]

Imagine how easy it's going to be when Shaw comes back!

mate he scored a double 30, that's unreal

Langer loves 30+ scores luckily

So annoying Maxwell's 278 got discredited last year
