Maximus Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Pujara-sahib is taking an awful punishment from the quicks, but I don't know whether to feel sorry for him or not. Seems no one has told him what the bat is for. MM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mardigras Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Prior to that second wicket, India were below Oz odds. For those saying India can't win, that was a quick 28% ROI right there. (Odds below Australia, India, Draw) with 100m bet on result so far. Edited January 19, 2021 by mardigras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I'm actually finding this test series sickening. How short are these cricketers' memories after what happened to Phil Hughes? It could easily happen again and the Aussies seem to just love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Cant believe what the flockwit Warney just said after Pujara was hit for the 11th time ...this time knocked his grill vizor off.. Warney compliments Josh Hazlewood for asking Pujara "are you OK?" as if in compassio/concern...look at the visual/replay and see the NASTY ugly look on Hazlewood's face...and I'd bet he didn't say 'Are you Ok"? more like "Did you feel that one?" go India!

Maximus Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 So so good to see those CHEATING ARROGANT plonkers from Australia made to eat humble pie by an immensely determined and courageous Indian team. Pujara fantastic. Pant courageous. Etc etc. Tim Paine shown up to be not much better than the cheat he replaced. No good being a sledger if you cant make the right calls as captain and back it up with a top-drawer performance, and Paine blew it imo. Shoulda brought the field up much earlier and tried to strangle an inexperienced opponent out of the match, but he was too defensive. Note how Warney was nowhere to be seen in the commentary team in the last hour; he'd spent half the day bitching about Lyon not having a close-in fieldsman on the offside. IMO Paine will be replaced as skipper inside 12 months -hopefully not by Smith. Bravo, India ...a Test and series win for the ages!

Hesi Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 Amazing stuff, glad to be proved wrong The next highest successful run chase at the Gabba, was back in 1951, and was only 236 That successful run chase of India's was about the 20th highest in test cricket history, can't find the actual stats. The highest successful run chase was 418 bt West Indes over Aus. The Indian batsmen showed real grit, Mark Greatbach style. In reality, I think Aus needed another 50 runs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 Agree, those Aussie commentators are so biased. Poor Isha Guha, she is certainly earning her pay cheque 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Isa not Isha She is all class apart from having an appallingly lazy accent and she Is-a certainly earning her rupees putting up with Warney MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 Isa, that's it, played cricket for England, so knows a googly from a left break It must be an Aussie thing, not sure whether it is tokenism or not, but they seem to have to have a reasonably attractive female co-host or show coordinator. The league shows do it, with Yvonne Sampson and a few others, who seem knowledgeable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No response I see. Have you got nothing to say after your question? Please tell us why they abandon races they have set up to take betting on, oh learned one?
