Handsome a Shield success story

Abso****inlutely. It’s brilliant to see the system work as planned. He’s easily talented enough to be in our best 6 batsmen, and it’s nice to see him doing his thing at the literal highest level.

The ultimate misfield for 4...

 

[Kram]

Handscomb back out with the floppy immediately good signs

Art Vandelay_ Lead Boots on the way to becoming Golden Boots and scoring a Test century and save Australia.

I’m a big fan of the floppy hat, I spent 20 years wicket keeping in a floppy hat. I just can’t cop it on a batter.

 

[Jamurp]

**** yeah Pat! digging in here, 300-320+ would be a decent score.

 

[MJG14]

Old school Indian fielding there.

 

[Plugger35]

Respectfully, AB is hardly the most intelligent bloke going around. Bloke only ever speaks in cliches.

Maybe not but he has cricket intelligence something most of the other Fox commentators don't have.

I'll listen to his opinion, cliches or not, ahead of the likes of Brendon Julian, Brett Lee and Brad Haddin.

 

[kenneje]

What score do people think puts us at an advantage? 300+?

 

[joff]

Hayden get off your knees mate you'll wear your mouth out

 

[FullyBigKPro]

handy runs

 

[Moonwatcher]

Handscomb brings up his 40 and now 40% on his way to 50.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Now he’s rolling again.

 

[Joose]

Aussies bogged down here. Only a matter of time...

 

[hoopla]

Basically agree with these in both their quoted contexts. Usman was attacking, was scoring well. Was a good catch but was his first errant reverse sweep, was looking far more nervy with the straight bat to those tbh. Tough conditions, very talented and tough opposition used to those conditions, he did well.

Handscomb valuing his wicket very well here. Is a pleasure to watch.

Handscomb has slowed down as the wickets have fallen around him…just like the first test. He was actually scoring faster than kawajha in their partnership.

 

[Plugger35]

Hayden dribbling absolute sh*t again.

 

[Jamurp]

I love how the floppy hat is just universal in cricket, always at least one player who wears one in each team.

 

[the_interloper]

**** I love seeing Aussie batters in the white floppy

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I cant work out if I want to be happy we continue to show something, nervous we are about to throw it away or angry we should be in a better position regardless of how these two are going

Handscomb brings up his 40 and now 40% on his way to 50.

 

[Bedi]

What score do people think puts us at an advantage? 300+?

400+. Their batting lineup will dominate us with just the one quick

 

[Tugga27]

Just 100 more to be a pass...

300 would be quite a bit overs IMO.

 

[kenneje]

Hayden dribbling absolute sh*t again.

Not sure if I’m just getting older and grumpier, but it’s mental. He’s incredibly grating and just talking for the sake of it. Killing me

 

[Kapow!!!]

So, standard fare watching an Australian overseas test then?

 

[Reign Man]

Handscombe's gone full Deano

You never go full Deano
