Test Championship Final: Aus v India

MN5

Has it really been two years since NZ won ? It should be held every four years…….

Obviously the final that NZ was in wasn’t that “weighty” according to Karthik I can’t be bothered trying to spell his surname….

In any case, Go Australia ! There might be one or two unlikable players in the team ( certainly not Brad Haddin level but still ) but I really can’t stand India as a cricket nation and their ridiculously one eyed, obsessed fans.

Nah go India. Underarm and all that…

Whilst I don’t mind the Aussie coach and a couple of their players, I like this Indian side and how they play. Love what their fans bring to the game, sure they get a bit overexcited online, but that’s neither here nor there when you consider how they support and get to venues. The next 5 days will be no different

Bruce Edgar was the real villain in that saga.

Fancy leaving out the best bowler in the world (statistically and IMO tactically) going into a World Championship game!

So arrogant ( either that or a tactic to play all their quicks in English conditions ) I hope it bites them in the arse.

Ashwin is a serious home track bully but he isn’t exactly terrible overseas to be fair.

That was shit from Labiashame.

Just checked the score

Aus 327/3

Head 146*
Smith 95*

Cummins said he would've bowled too. Good toss to lose

NTA

Indian professional commentators sound a lot like Indian amateur fans. Complete gibber.

Not that the likes of Hayden etc are much better I suppose

Hayden gets asked specific questions but just answers with whatever bullshit just floated into his head

Ponting is good

NTA

Unfortunately the dodgy highlights package I watched has almost zero Ponting.

India going in without Ashwin is madness. He injured?

Travis Head is so good now

mariner4life

it's not just the score, it's how fast he scores that is putting Australia in good positions really quickly

Really hoping for a draw here! Hopefully deck stays as flat as possible.
