Their team's strength is smartness as much as babzall. Even the test they lost to NZ was just by one run. Lone Wolf 1

Bumrah don't know if he will play another Test. World class is bit too much for Siraj, he is good.Let him take more than one 5fer before calling him world class. Nikola and Frustrated 2

They bowled on flat roads in Paksitan and stifled them 3 times back to back. Australia couldn't bowl Pakistan out on day 5. Babar scored 196 runs.
putrevus Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 Bazball is fine and dandy but declaring when your best batsman is going bonkers is stupid. It can be done only by a captain who has no clue on how hard it is to score runs or take wickets. Sgattick10 and Tattieboy 2

Actually with a different bowling unit he will shine better. He is at top of his game. But if he bowls with a better set of bowlers he will be very good. He was doing a semi-workhorse role
vvvslaxman Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 There is some nervous energy i can see from Aussies especially Umsna khawaja. Very tentatively poking.
Austin 3:!6 Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 Ben Stokes - can't bat, doesn't bowl, do weird declaration out of no where. It will be interesting to see how many days this maverick approach of England lasts.

Having said that this Australian side bar Head is a defensive side. They won't be aggressive. It will take more than a day to overhaul their total. If they want a lead it will take almost 2 days for them leaving only 2 days to force a result. England will have the advantage of bowling last.

Until they run into a side that has 2 or 3 pants who wipe off the deficit in no time and get the lead plus Good captain and set of bbowlers.

He is top of his game that does not mean he becomes world class.He sis far from being world class.

He is on his own. A clueless captain who has no knowledge of opposition weaknesses.

Given the way India managed to take WTC final to day 5 even with atrocious preparation, team selection, captaincy tells me Australia is not quiet the ruthless side. Smith as a captain would be far better than Cummins. Cummins has to step up massively. He is their lead strike bowler.
rkt.india Posted June 16, 2023 Posted June 16, 2023 road to Warner, no run Good length on fourth stump, 87mph and stabbed towards backward point 2.3 • Broad to Warner, no run Hits a length, 88mph/141kph and possibly shaping back. Warner watches it closely and leaves alone broad still bowling in early 140s, while Robinson struggling to bowl 130.
