Starc proving a lot of haters wrong

Please, don't encourage him...................

There is no chance of a 5 day test with these two batting line ups unless it rains for a couple of days.

 

[dexter_]

what is that?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

please lose jeez

I won't even blame Carey

 

[HitTheNailOnTheHead]

Congratulations to Mitch Starc on reaching 100 Test matches, becoming the 17th Australian and 4th front line bowler to achieve this feat alongside Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath and Nathan Lyon.

His journey to this wonderful milestone entails nearly 400 Teat wickets, a 99 with the willow, missing 6 of his first 7 Boxing Day Tests, a strike rate 2nd only to the great Dale Steyn of Test cricket's top 20 wicket-takers and goodness knows how many pie-shop references on this site. .

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Deja vu for Hads?

 

[CakeEater]

Wtf

 

[benbrown]

Un 10 batting there

 

[manureid]

Should declare and bowl at them under lights

 

[Aussie pie]

That’s a concussion shot.

 

[Tiges1229]

Pathetic.

 

[Crankyhawk]

Jeez the over rates in this series have been abysmal.

Only thing stopping this being a 2 day test though

 

[MJG14]

Oh dear that was a horrendous shot.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Look people bag the shot but loved him doing it last test

You have to take some bad with the good okay

 

[PhatBoy]

Green has been basically flawless (aside from his running) amidst all of this

 

[Crankyhawk]

I just cannot see it. Maybe if king and hope went odi style given their short format pedigree but we look so bereft of any confidence that it’s so forlorn whenever we get out there. It’s like we forget to hit the ball and focus more on who’s bowling it than what they’re bowling (that’s not to denigrate Australia’s bowlers who have been fantastic im just saying I feel we probably don’t play them the same way we would play them in other circumstances)

At least it would be out of the twilight though, could approach a small target with odi mentality

Lemme guess- thats just the way he plays right?

 

[Plugger35]

Alzarri gave Carey a wake up call and now he says goodnight.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yep, that's the ONE positive now can one of these other bats just stay in for goodness sakes, I hope Green gets a 40 odd, that's worth double in these conditions

 

[Blue Heart]

With 25 overs to go, what a ridiculous shot from Carey.

 

[grumbleguts]

Where are the Cam Green haters? Guy is the only one flying the flag.

Not that early

 

[LukeParkerno1]

I never said that and it was a poor shot BUT you have to take some bad with the good. The timing wasn't great, but I don't have an issue with the shot.

Should declare and bowl at them under lights

If they keep playing shots like that, no declaration will be necessary.
