Has Morris gone wicket 1st ball Scorchers first home game, wicket 2nd ball 2nd home game, wicket 3rd ball Scorchers 3rd home game?

Soon he'll be useless!

Bad light is the most flaccid reason behind stopping play.

****ing hell

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Farcical. Batsmen in zero danger and playing comfortably enough.

 

[DanWCE]

Rigged just to try and get into day 5

 

[Keys]

Just bowl spinners if the light is dodgy

They’ve got two

And their quick are barely above medium pace anyway

Nah.

Pakistan shouldn't have to change their tactics due to umpire weakness. Shan is within his rights to want to continue bowling seamers.

Rain, eh?

Sydney Test

 

[DanWCE]

Oh FFS I'm going to have to return to the gardening aren't I? **** you Sydney.

 

[ioppolo]

Every test summer we're reminded how shit the weather is during 'summer' outside of Perth and Adelaide.

 

[THE A5]

Next year have India for 5 tests right?

Would us hosting the last test work? It would likely be mid/late Jan but will still he school holidays here.

Baird declares: Rich nations must share wealth to keep Test cricket healthy

Australia, India and England must be prepared to share more of their wealth with other nations to keep the best cricketers playing Test matches, Cricket Australia chair Mike Baird says.

CA actually admitting the obvious is a nice change, hopefully they actually do it.

 

[THE A5]

Bumrah has 11 for the match and india has three more wickets to get this innings

 

[THE A5]

Markram smshing a century over run a ball in this pitch is crazy. Games likely to end in less than two days too

 

[KBLT]

Outstanding knock from Markram

Another cricket quiz, this time Big Bash Teams

For all the wild stuff happening in this test, Markram knocking off Bannermans record would surely be top.

Nevermind!

Bumrah and Siraj are two different people

Bumrah has 7 for the match after taking 2 in the first dig.

Siraj took 6 in the first

Oops

 

[THE A5]

Fun to take the piss out of Bazball but these attacking and counter-attacking innings seem to be increasing and we’ve some fine ones when teams are in the shitter recently. It’s makes the game even more fun to watch

This is implying I wanted Bannermans record broken.

 

[Truckosaurus]

It's day 2, India need 79 to win, and SA are still a chance.

 

[Keys]

Shades of our 1st test v South Africa at the Gabba in 2022

SA : 152 & 99
Australia : 218 & 4/35

Game lasted until the final session on Day 2

Total of 145 overs for the match

Assuming India win there’ll only not be about 40 less runs scored in this test match. Remains to be seen how many wickets they lose in the chase
