what does Trav’s hand signal mean after he got pant?
Richardson for Starc possibly
Marsh for Webster seems obvious which means it won’t be

Face of the bat, then touching the glove doesn’t make much of a sound.
I agree that onfield Jaiswal had to be given out lbw. Clearly not going over, clearly not missing leg.

It’s the Auslan gesture for sex. /jk
But I do remember it as part of a joke about sign language.
Agreed they are the hardest type to give IMO.
Wouldn’t have heard anything and from front on it wouldn’t be obvious.
I struggled a bit early on when umpiring with the bat/pad, pad/bat thing to spinners and some of the wickets we played on too.
Did anyone ask Head in the post match if Jaiswal said he hit it to him? His reaction definitely looked like it.
The batting of the Aussie bowlers in both innings was critical to today’s win.
They valued their wickets and showed excellent patience, put enormous value on their wicket and did nothing reckless, all the while providing excellent support for Smith and Labuschagne and getting runs themselves.
A tail that wagged us to victory.

I talked a lot of sh*t about us but credit where it’s due, Straya got it done. I was dead wrong. Still a bit in shock, gotta rewatch key moments again on kayo

Abbott is in the squad and would be the logical inclusion to play on his home deck
They could bat Carey at 6 and then Abbott at 7 and still replace Starc with Richardson.

He took 4/10 against Sri Lanka a couple of years ago and joked on social media that he needed to put his red hot finger into an ice bath.
You can guarantee that selective Indians will want to label this ‘racist’ or ‘unsportsmanlike’ amongst other things…

Abbott is a bit pedestrian at times. I’d really love someone in their with some heat

I knew we’d win today. I had faith.
What a ride, what a test!?! Unbelievable match and credit to the Indian supporters for this one. Unreal crowd numbers.
The build up, the getting miles in front, getting pegged back by their lower order, the batting collapse, then wowee what a final session.
A few huge moments that shifted momentum a number of times.
And haven’t even mentioned the 19yo trying to ramp the best bowler in the world in the 3rd over.
It’s not just the best form of cricket, but the ultimate sporting test, over 5 days.

Cool…
2-1*** with one Test to go with showers/thunderstorms predicted on the last three days in Sydney.
*** And would have won in Brisbane had it not been for rain.
