He batted quite well, took a good ball to get him out. He makes batting look so very easy at times, you can see why the selectors pick him, particularly in Australia.

Shame about those pesky wicketsHalfway there
Minor issueShame about those pesky wickets
probably similar to chappell and Botham, something said 40 years ago, neither one of them is adult enough to let it goCan anyone tell me what the deal with KG and Kerry O'Keefe is/was? I know there is some major beef there cause KG refused to interview him on the drive show but can't remember what it was.

Oh crap.Talk that Paine has busted the same finger hes had all the trouble with.
We all know KG loves a conspiracy, and Cornes is...... a Cornes.
I think he got hit, but nothing has been mentioned on TVOh crap.
Carey in, Haselwood as our 1st bowling captain for a while..
Lol, Paine doesn't lose credibility on that one dismissal!Wtf ...?
First ball --- the very! first!! ball !!! --- after lunch, all Paine had to do was drop his hands and sway back a little, Captain-like. Nothing reckless, just common sense and good leadership.
But, no.
He just HAD to have a go at that benign pie-chucker Bumrah's loosener, and throw his wicket (and his credibility) away.
Fmd.
Dizzy Gillespie, of all batsmen, is now talking on 7 about how the situation requires some hard-nosed defensive play.
Dizzy, not from this mob mate.
Not just that, he ran off with my ex- ...Gilly has well & truly retired!
Yours, or mine?Lol, Paine doesn't lose credibility on that one dismissal!
Massive overreaction.
You were the one who made the outlandish statement... so its you who is making the massive overreaction.Yours, or mine?
Calm down, KM, it's OK if I say he's lost cred with me. Why? s**t shot/dismissal today, plus in 15 Tests I don't remember a single one where he led or inspired or played us to a win.
You don't think so? No worries *shrug* .
Ponting said on Ch. 7 that Paine's the best keeper in the world and he's a muchmuch better judge than me.
I just don't think he's Australian Test Captain material. Nice bloke, but too bland imo. A pigeon is more animated than him.
I don't follow Cricket these days ....but what are the test averages of our test batsman now compared to other decades ?
I'm not disputing, but I would have thought the average would have been in the 40's ......where's the stats when you need themVery similar to the early to mid 80s. Lots of late 20s (seeing our openers then were hitting around 26 to 29 average)-early 40s in the mix with a shining light above 50.
He doesnt lose anything with his shot today, nothing at all.Yours, or mine?
