Banter The No Dazzlering Big Cricket Thread

Rohit's selfishness is costing India the series.

You're finished mate.

Apart from awful batting, awful captaincy, and making their best bat so far move to 3 to fit him back as opener, not sure he's done much wrong

Yeah CC is a harsh critic. I reckon Rohit is good for at least one more tour down under.

Only watch Australia - and even then not religiously (not obsessed, just a fan), love how every year there's a new* piece of tech or graphic to keep short attention spans going between action - the wrist speed vs run up speed vs release speed is a lot of fun.


*new to me at least.

Need to get my self one. Don’t really need run up speed or release speed as it’s been a while since I’ve bowled

Wrist speed for you would be elite I suspect

World class

 

[Keys]

Not much a batter can do to keep that ball out from Cummins

So far this match, most batsmen have contributed in some way to their demise but Rahul isn’t one of them. As good a delivery as you’re likely to see

The Harley Reid of the that side of sport

Ugh, is there anything more nepotistic than C7 having Rachel Khawaja interviewing players families

Yeah quite a lot of things I'd say.

 

[Tugga27]

MM not bowling really hurts the balance of the side.
He might be under pressure to keep his spot.

Good to see Beau Webster released for tomorrows BBL game.........

Love that although Jaiswal can clearly hit boundaries he has also has shown a good ability to find singles and rotate the strike off good balls. He is a very very good player

 

[Wce17]

I remember when Shaun Marsh started one of the big issues with him was he just dealt in boundaries & had a hard time at first class level rotating the strike which just built pressure on him & his batting partner. Can just remember listening to ABC radio & the commentators really driving home the point.

Especially when batting

Not out.

Marsh wasting reviews to go along with his batting and 7.5 an over bowling. Always pitching outside leg.

Nah, was outside by a bees dick, and was Joel, should be reviewing his by default

Closer than I thought but watching live thought it was pretty clearly pitching outside leg.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

VK was right to send him back there, never a single in that.

Not sure you can blame Marsh.
Cummins makes the call.

 

[Tugga27]

Long time for a nighty to last.

More fun to blame Virat though.

Surprised he didn't walk down and shoulder charge him before refusing to run a single
