Handscombe missed that by 2 bat widths.

Get forward mate or I'd get you out.
Rubbish technique!

The worst batsman to have played more than one Test to have ever played for Australia.

Having said that S Marshs wkt was the moment that we (he) handed the match to India.

Our batting lineup is crap, no technique, NFI, we might get knocked over tonight yet

Jim Maxwell was just rather scathing towards Shitcombe on the ABC, all of it true though.

Don't lump Chris Martin in with Handscombe spelly, he was one of my favourite Test batsmen to watch.

He was a fan fave - we just didn't see enough of him bat.

On second thoughts, he did get half as close than that

Bumrah is unlucky some of our bats are not good enough to edge these.

Big difference in the batting, Indians get a start they go on and get tons, we get out in the 60's and 70's :oops: :oops:



Kohli can adapt to all formats of the game, Australia are all slappers.

Highlighted by most Australian wickets thus far


Indian bowlers are a class above ours as well at this stage, Starc's best days are behind him, Hazelwood toils hard, Cummins is the best at the moment, Lyon has hardly turned one this innings and bowling to quick and flat


I’m not 100% convinved on that. Australian batsmen* are certainly making the Indians look far better than what they are. Saying that I like Bumrah but if Ishant is taking 4/40 odd against you I think your batting line up is in real trouble.

Bumrah is one of the better Indian quicks I have seen in my time perhaps behind Kapil dev and zaher khan

Kohli is class best Indian bat since Sachin imo
