I have a feeling we’ll cark it tommorow, I think aggression is the right move.
I know recency phenomenon is a thing, but for perspective Hayden had a lot more chances to belt up on lower performing attacks.
We are fortunate that we have had a lot of great openers. Ponsford was good enough to have an MCG stand named after him.
And also FYI, there is an Australian opener whose record has not been broken in ~150 years.
I really hated that ending from Australia.
The stupid time wasting was cringe, and only tells the opposition you’re scared of them.
I was hoping that Usman might get another delivery he could let go.
Of course Bumrah wasn’t going to afford him that luxury.
You could see that dismissal coming.
Going to make for an interesting first hour tomorrow.

One should never underestimate the ability of South Africa to ■■■■ the bed.
3/72 at lunch. They were 0/61…
And probably won’t be broken

There is a chance that a phenom could do it against a minnow Test country.
But for comparison, John Coleman’s multiple records will never be broken.
Uzi made that delivery look better than it was. He didn’t use his feet was stuck back in the crease and jumped off the ground. Played it terribly and he paid the price. He’s absolutely cooked

I can’t tell the prompt/issue that Bumrah took with Konstas.
I don’t think that’s what did Ussie. A brilliant ball and his super glued feet did.
Not appropriate attire considering there’d no doubt be children in the stands
I reckon konstas would almost have been within his rights to shape up to kholi et al with the bat. India would threaten to go home if roles were reversed

It would have happened long ago if he was a batsman from Victoria

Australia have much better fast bowling stocks than India have
Horrible fielding collision with Sam’s knocked out cold
Really bad collision. The worst l have seen on a ground.
That was horrible
just catching up on the news of the day
konstas must have a fkn elite yap game
Bancroft running back and Sam’s running in and they smacked hard and Sam’s was out cold and Bancroft writhing in pain holding his head
Bancroft broken nose
Sam’s moving but being taken off on the cart
He’d want to score big.
