Pity our batsmen can't do likewise in this deciding test
lol fella, seeing today like a football maybe, seeing sh!t like a pineapple more generally.
Loving this series against the Indians - if Smithy had some help we might be coming home winners already. Nonetheless, you have to like the fight they have shown. SOK

Absolutely, I love cricket more than life itself but I haven't been as captivated by a test series as much as this one for quite a while.. India is just a fascinating place to follow a test series - just the suspense before each match in terms of what the pitch is going to look like and how it'll play (how heavily it's been tailored to the home team!) is like a game in itself!
Yeah Australia's performance has been a big surprise.. I thought we'd lose this four game series 7-0, heck I thought we'd be lucky to win a session !! But we've shown some real ability to hang tough and play the 'long game' with the bat.. I really didn't think our guys had the ability to play with soft hands and adapt to spinning conditions anywhere near well enough to be competitive but their time in the UAE before the series was clearly constructive.. Mind you, I'm worried how much is left in the tank for this test due to the amount of concentration and mental energy we've had to pour into the first three tests.. hopefully we can just squeeze a little more out over these last three days with bat and ball, take some wickets in bunches and put two or three good partnerships together with the bat to give this a shake..
As for Steve Smith, what's left to say ?
