What a yorker ....a bit of reverse

[Global.Baba]

Shami bhai’s yorkers

[raki05]

AUS tailunders are batting like tailenders coz we don't have knuckle bowlers to feast on.

His sexting fingers are surely working well it seems 

[Global.Baba]

Shami bhai using charm and smile even while sending off a batsman. No wonder the man is a chick magnet 

[Rightarmfast]

So how much does Harsha Bhogle charge to just shut up?

350 is usually a par score in chinnasaamy but this surface looks a little on the slower side 

Yeah it’s a touch slower , but there should also be dew later . I think 330 can be chased easily if you bat well today , so no complains about  bowlers 

[Austin 3:!6]

Hazelwood playing ODI after a loooong time.

Bumrah is in that phase of his career where opposition will play him out and not give him wickets. He will be economical on most occasions but wickets will be harder to come by.

 

He needs to strike with the new ball and figure out new ways to get batsmen out. This is usually the phase most players who have a promising start   face  if they have to break out to be an ATG

I had a convo with an indian i met in a coffee shop over here about this.

 

I was explaining to him why in my opinion, currently bumrah can't be classed as a great bowler. (For the record i feel he is... just that he cant have that title yet. Based entirely on what you were saying) if he cant find a way through this period of "batsmen seeing him off, and find a way to get wickets" then he will elevate himself into that category.

 

We have seen lots of bowlers over the decades fail to find a way through that period, and not make that next step.

 

 

I think bumrah will. But atm he is going to get judged heavily over his next season and a half, as all bowlers should if they want to earn that title of one of the worlds great bowlers.

 

If they do it, it shows they have not only the skills, but the smarts required to place themselves amongst the best we have seen

Is that confirmed 

[Ankit_sharma03]

Dhawan wearing a sling...doesnt look like he ll bat

[Global.Baba]

Doesn’t Aus have better players than Agar and Turner?

 

what happened to Khwaja and Handscombe?

 

The seem So out of place in a strong side 

[raki05]

You can't make wkt taking bowler like shami to sit out.

[adi B]

Guys I am not feeling that confident for this chase with dhawan going off .

You never know what Cummins hazelnut,starc will produce with the new ball

Cant open now atleast even if fit because was out of fielding almost entire innings. So Rahul will be partnering Rohit.

External injury , so he can still come out to bat ? 

[raki05]

So we have substitute option available here.

Without Dhawan its going to be very difficult
