Border Gavaskar Trophy, India v Australia, 1st Test 9-13 Feb, 1430hrs at Nagpur

[Jimthegreat]

Boland's type of bowling is suited more than others on these tracks.

 

[danielnajdek]

Lyon still on

 

[Banga19]

Why does Mark Wasugh keep bringing up Renshaw as a bowling option, we have the two best offies in country in the team, much more sense to give Marnus or Smith a go

 

[Cotchin 9]

Get Murphy on fk me

 

[Voice of the G]

Boland's type of bowling is suited more than others on these tracks.

So why has he not bowled more overs.

 

[BGman]

35 overs one wicket, poor show on this surface. We cant even extricate a bloke averaging @27 with the willow.

Lyon doing sweet fa. Time to give Murph a decent trundle.

 

[Belnakor]

I wonder if a team has won a series after losing the first test by an innings. Just curious

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Good aggot scotty

Cummins and Lyon at this stage have let us down badly with the ball.Hopefully they can turn the game around before it is to late.

 

[swanssince2002]

At least Boland is not giving them an inch but the damage was done yesterday

 

[Sphynx]

Lyon better not bowl this over.

First gamer out bowling him comfortably not a great look for the self proclaimed GOAT. Doesn’t seem to have a specific plan to specific batsman either. Hasn’t done his homework.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Cummins at 5 an over

Boland at 0.8 runs an over

So Captain decides to bowl Himself more

 

[danielnajdek]

Lyon better not bowl this over.

He is lol

Reminds me a lot of Kasprowicz who did a terrific job bowling in these conditions.

 

[Westend]

Well this is going great

 

[Sphynx]

This is absolutely shite captaincy pat.

 

[smasha]

$EN pumping this up lol.

 

[Hawksboy72]

Of all the Aussie commentators I dislike Healy the most. Utter w***er.

Thought Slater had them all covered...he was horrific.

 

[Soups]

Pat will surprise us again by taking Scotty off

One thing I will say and you know I rarely stick up for Lyon…

He relies on bounce massively. Look at where his best bowling has been, generally on pitches where he uses the bounce plenty of bat pads, etc.

I can’t believe we haven’t picked Kuhermann it’s looking worse by the second!

You have to go all the way back to 2022

South Africa in England. Poms got belted first test and won the series.

 

[Sphynx]

Lyon just releasing all the Boland pressure.

Why not bowl the two tightest bowlers so far on a long spell?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Give Warner a bowl

He can’t bowl worse than he bats

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Pat will surprise us again by taking Scotty off

He'll probably go to throw the ball to Head for a spell, and then realise he's not out there
