Runs were less,had it been 270+ (with a bit more intent from Kela)and better bowling from Siraj,spinners Things could have been different,Aus never Chase well That could have been chased by even Pakistan,score board pressure nil(Australia put unreal pressure with it on Nov 19), fielding pressure nil Sandz 1 Link to comment

No attacking field positions. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Lyon put down. Straight forward edge put down by Southee. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Unlucky Henry. Bowled superbly at decent clip close to 140kph Link to comment
Frustrated Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Nightwatchman Lyon averages 13 with the bat in tests. Much higher than our Nightwatchman Patidar (whose avg is 10) Link to comment

Lone Wolf Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Marnus's luck has ran out... A past his prime Smith opening.. Marnus in a rut. High risk Loose players like Marsh Head in middle order. This batting line up is there for the taking. Ofc we would have to contend with a near ATG bowling unit. Link to comment
Gollum Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Wait Kane didn't score a 100, I am shocked. Link to comment

Gollum Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 1 hour ago, Frustrated said: Despite the green pitch, Lyon is able to spin the ball by a considerable margin. And looks threatening. WOW!! This is Murli level. 1 hour ago, rollingstoned said: He does this very often in unfriendly conditions. Here Ashwin was getting a classical off spin lesson from Bashir in the last match eg Sarfraz and Patidar dismissals in last test. 1 hour ago, Suhaan said: Very generous Indian pitches have spoiled our spinners Fingers are not meant to do hard yards to get purchase out of unhelpful (non turners) pitches Tbh, Ashwin (and Jadeja) have been outbowling Lyon in Aus since latter half of 2014-15 BGT. Big reason for last two BGT wins there has been Lyon's subpar performance and our spinners making a big impact, recall Lyon's inability to make an impact on day 5 in SCG and Gabba...even a couple of wickets there would have been curtains for us. NZ has a severe mental block against Aussies. At this rate I think even 2nd and 3rd string Aussie sides will bajao NZ in NZ. Link to comment
Gollum Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 No excuse to not win in NZ next time, their team is in serious decline. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 At this rate test match will happen only between 3 countries. SA has issues like quota, SA20. NZ was never a test force. With them entering transition they will also be indifferent. Link to comment

Ashwin has had these performances, I don't deny, but if you take their whole careers into account it is more the exception rather than the rule. Ofc one can only bowl in the conditions you are offered, hence also why pointless to troll Anderson as Clouderson. Edited March 1 by rollingstoned Suhaan 1 Link to comment

Bigg Brother Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 NZ always managed to lose momentum against Australia even after dream start. Always. And they are opposite against us, crawl back into game from losing position.. Link to comment
