Australia v India 3rd Test Perth

[Turbo]

Its not the Test pitch its one of the spares according to Richie so does it really matter. Lets not get 2 precious

Even if it is only the practice wicket wristy it is still poor form....

Especially poor form considering our opponent, they'll look for anything to make an excuse, whinge and complain. look out if they bat first today and get rolled cheaply, all hell will break loose!

Bigger whingers than the English. Get over it

[Bum Crack]

what time does it start? says on the ad it's 12.30, but will that be all the pre-game stuff? Just want to work out exactly, so I can head home for lunch and get a full hour in, rather than half hour of pre-game and half hour of cricket.

First ball at 1

You would think being 0-2 down , The Indians would want a damaged pitch

[wristwatcher]

Play can now officially start at 1pm due to the fact that the Indians have now registered their pre match excuse....groundsmen on the ground and they were in bare feet

Do you reckon New Zealand would have cared??? i think not. Typical behaviour from the country that controls world cricket though. IMO they should not be allowed to review it

[Dogwatcher]

Disgraceful, they look like they we're running amok on it.

Rule #1: Thou shall not permit anyone to walk or stand on a centre wicket area within 24 hours of a match.

Yep, there were covers on it for a reason. Why give the opponent something to whinge about?

Incase it rained, it's not as though someone dropped a borry on it.

I have seen a man do that following a premiership.

[RustyCage]

even if it makes no difference to the pitch, why do it? It's just stupidity

Aussies win the toss and bowl. Playing four pacemen

IN- Harris, Starc
OUT- Pattinson, Lyon

tend to agree Starc imho struggled against the Kiwis and will struggle more so here.

what happened to Copeland a green top like this would suit him down to tee hey.

[cripple]

Poor move dropping Lyon. The Aussies have India on the rack and this would have been a great oppurtunity to get more experience. A very short sighted decision IMO.

Surely its all dependant on pitch conditions.
If we were playing on a real spinning pitch id have no problems dropping a quick and playing 2 spinners so this isnt any differant.
BTW India are going in with 4 quicks aswell
