chewy Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Day 1 - pitch taking good turn, also in slow side Maharaj takes a fiver never thought I would see the day Saffers put a slow pitch at home to counter opposition’s threat Are they so scared of Australia’s pace attack? Link to comment
Rightarmfast Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Starc in the first over bowling at 145, 148, 152! Express! Mosher 1 Link to comment
Rightarmfast Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Wow... Starc hitting 150 at will! He is truly express! adi B 1 Link to comment
Insidious Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Pitch is not giving justice to starc pace. Very slow and dry pitch. May be there will be some reverse swing later on Link to comment
Singh bling Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Hazzlewood bowled fastest of 155 in ashes Link to comment
Singh bling Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Lyon 2 wickets in first over Link to comment
Insidious Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Nathan lyon is the best off spinner at the moment. It is pity that Ashwin is not same bowler after the england series, where he was suffering from sports hernia Jimmy Cliff 1 Link to comment
Jamadagni Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) That's the line an off spinner should bowl. I am sure he'll continue doing so even if he gets hit a few boundaries. But dumb Ashwin would go defensive. Edited March 2, 2018 by Jamadagni adi B, RAZPOR and ThePhenomenal1 3 Link to comment

Maharaja is a very good bowler especially against non-subcontinental sides. The only visiting spinner in recent years who did well IN Australia. Has taken fifers at home and in England. You don't average 25 in test cricket outside Asia as a spinner if you are average. Ashwin got a similar pitch in the second test. What did he do? Now before you come up with dropped catches, yes a few were dropped in the first innings, but no catches were dropped off his bowling the second innings still he ended up wicketless. Even commentators were calling out his wrong lines. ThePhenomenal1, Turning_track, adi B and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment

Even commentators were calling out his wrong lines. Both Maharaj and Ashwin bowled on the same pitch. Now before you come up with subcontinent batsmen are better players of spin, the very same batsmen have given buckets of wickets to Swann, Monty, Lyon and not to mention O'Keefe. Link to comment
