Pace and bounce on this pitch  

[vvvslaxman]

They bowl only at 135 clicks. Usually  with Australian speed guns you would see higher speeds. Even with that they are recording around 138k. But bounce of the pitch reminds me of the 90s perth pitch. From good length ball is going over shoulder of batsman lol That is some bounce.

yet Finch didn't go for the review lol 6'5" bowler perth pitch with lot of bounce he didn't go for review. He could have survived.

[vvvslaxman]

De kock keeping is dodgy. May be because of the pitch being fast and bouncy. But he is often off footed.

Steyn was consistently in the 140's.

okay i didn't notice Steyn. But ngidi looked really quick and fast. But it showed only 138 kph one point it showed 126 kph

[vvvslaxman]

phbeblukow wobbles the ball even at low speed. Not a bad 4th choice bowler

Ngidi gets bounce and zip off the deck.

 

But is not very quick in the air.

Starc, Cummins, Hazlewood and Coulter-Nile playing.

 

Want to see Rayudu bat against them in Perth.

[SK_IH]

Starc, Cummins,Hazlewood and NCN could be really useful under lights, match is not over yet

TBH let's start from the top, even Rohit and Dhawan will not find it easy

[ssurenn]

this performance is utter garbage, what the hell has happened to AUS cricket, children could play better than this woeful, disgraceful and gutless event, even the the commentators think its funny.

[express bowling]

Aussie LOI batting seem to have very limited ability or mindset to defend or leave balls.  

 

Just trying to play strokes off most balls ...  that too, careless shots most of the time.  We saw the same in the T20Is against Pakistan.

It would be good to have our ODI batting tested on tougher tracks against quick bowlers.

 

But just 3 ODIs ... while we play 5 against the WI.
