Bog gone. Excellent spell from Bumrah.

All over.

FFS. Too little to make a difference, enough to keep his spot for the season. Worst case scenario for Aust.

by Bradman Mon 10 Dec 2018, 01:21

The season? That knock has to be good for the ashes.

Cummins very bloody lucky.

by JGK Mon 10 Dec 2018, 01:21

Cummins giving Finch a lesson in when to review a bat pad.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 02:01

6-186 at Lunch.

To be fair, a reasonable effort by Aus.

Both wickets fell to good balls.

At least there's some cricket to watch in the 2nd last session of the match.

Over before Tea but.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 02:57

Paine needs to give away the pull. He didn't hit one decent one all innings, before holing out to Bumrush.

My 2.30 prediction is looking good.

by Bradman Mon 10 Dec 2018, 03:30

Plenty of time. Dare we even say it.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 03:31

2.30 pm finish prediction avoided. Well done to 2nd and Koo.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 03:32

Aus was on top when we had India 6-127 in I1. If we had've bowled better (I'm looking at you Mitchell Starc), we should have limited India to well under 200.

If so, right now we'd be under 50 from victory.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 03:40

Under 100 to win.

So a less than disgraceful loss now in the offing.

Is it a useless stat,? Steyn figures would be better.

Steyn is better, but still more economical against the bottom 5

It is his suck to Healy.

Harsh on the bowlers. We lost the toss and kept India to just over 550 in two innings in Adelaide FFS. No one to point the finger at other than the batsmen. The top 3 managed less than 100 in total in the match.

As I type this, Koo is out to an unnecessary slog.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 03:55

Flat-footed windy woof puts paid to Koo' innings.

India 2 away from victory.

Koo wasted all 4 new balls.

Pant needs one more catch to break the most catches in a match WR.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 04:10

Pant just dropped the WR.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 04:24

Rush of blood from 2nd (with Elmer going well at the other end) sees him waft a half tracker to 1st slip.

1 to get for India.

by Bradman Mon 10 Dec 2018, 04:29

Where's AB when you need him? A four run loss would be good at this point.

by OP Tipping Mon 10 Dec 2018, 04:33

Valiant effort by the lower order.

by Bradman Mon 10 Dec 2018, 04:39

Now this is cricket.

by Bradman Mon 10 Dec 2018, 04:43

Trying to find a market on a tie.

by skully Mon 10 Dec 2018, 05:00

Instant no balls to one that would've been out lbw.

by taipan Mon 10 Dec 2018, 05:02

If the umpires called all the no balls the target would be a lot closer

by JGK Mon 10 Dec 2018, 05:08

I'm even more pissed off that we are that close. Means that the top order have clearly cost us this match.

Qunts.
