I'd love to see a cameo Starc 50+ right now.

Apart from Maxwell’s 270 he hit last season he hasn’t done anything worthy of a test recall.
I love to watch Kohli bat, but the rest you can deal me out of.
It's getting to the point where thawing Watson out of retirement is almost an attractive option. I'd legitimately have more confidence in him even now than I have in Smarsh.Pretty short of options though, plus Finch didn't set the world on fire during the last Sheffield Shield either.
Maxwell is a terrific fielder as well.
I don't rate Maxwell all that highly either so when I'm suggesting his recall then things have gotten pretty desperate.
He bowled it very wide. Surely knew it was angling in. I think he needs to be better
I could even respect the over the top aggression if he kept it on the field, but he has a habit of going to the press when he gets it back, which makes it seem more like petulance than passion.Yep, this is it. I could sit and watch Kohli bat and thoroughly enjoy it, but the rest of his package just annoys the hell out of me.
If they do then Gavaskar will be out in the media talking about how everyone is just not used to Indians not being "meek". He's been using that line since the 70's, but apparently we're still just stuck in a colonial mentality or something when criticism is sent the BCCI's way.
Wade is more deserving of a recall based on form in the last 12 months than Maxwell.Pretty short of options though, plus Finch didn't set the world on fire during the last Sheffield Shield either.

And I get lambasted for slagging off one innings out of 10 SMarsh.It's getting to the point where thawing Watson out of retirement is almost an attractive option. I'd legitimately have more confidence in him even now than I have in Smarsh.
We will be waiting a while then.Up to the Umpires to police that.
Ryegrass?? Really? I'd bet my left nut that they're couch. The only FC rye grass wickets that I know of are at Bellerive. I went to a curator's show one night and Les Burdett was there and this old bloke says to Les "How do you get ryegrass to strike over there (Adelaide)?" Les goes "I don't - it's a ******* weed!"
On Finch, after his showing in the UAE it's not reasonable to drop him, even though he absolutely didn't deserve the call-up in the first place. It's annoying, but it would set an even worse precedent to put anyone on the chopping block after doing well then failing once regardless of wider context in my opinion.Question if I may. Why is it that the only possible changes are to juggle the order to keep finch in when it is not deserved or to bring in Maxwell. Victorians both. Plenty of bias being shown.
There are other states folks. We need to look to the future and that does not include marsh, finch or maxwell. Paine is also a stopgap. The older guys have had their chance. Go with blokes with a few aeasons in shield under their belt and pump skills and mental strenght into them. Rotating failed batsmen because they got 100 last week solves nothing.
Sorry..I'm talking pitchesOh okay.. strange. I heard from the horses mouth that it was rye a few months ago, that's the outfield I'm talking about.
Because people have long memories and India is still regarded as the underdog by most, at least in comparison to Australia, and the underdog gets leeway to behave badly. Although another factor is that Kohli is generally celebrating team achievements, Warner overcelebrates his own milestones, which is always more annoying if that kind of thing gets under your skin.Why does kohli get so much praise for his over the top celebrations and Warner got blasted for his over the top celebrations
Still think we can potentially get a lead if Starc finds his groove and keep rotating the strike with Head.How close to the Indian first innings score do we realistically reckon we can get here?
