Watching a bit of the India vs SA match and its awesome

Love watching low scoring, shocking pitch matches

These pitches are how Indian ones should be, brutal cracked dustbowls that promote 4 spinners in the team

This series is a breath of fresh air

Thoughts on D/N test in Radeliade?

I'm mos def a fan. I work mornings which means more time to watch cricket/drink beer. 👍🏻

I love it and support 4 day tests coming in too (100 over days)

I just dont want every test to be a d/n affair that would be overkill

Also hope they can sort out the pink ball, I dont really like the extreme pitch doctoring that seems to have gone on here in preparation

I agree, you would think they could get the ball right after years of testing

They might have to scrap kookaburra, they seem to be pretty hopeless at the moment

Enjoying it so far

Three beautiful outswingers in a row from Southee to get Voges. Really, really good bowling.

No surprise the Jesse Pinkman lookalike likes the pink ball!

What a great session, such tight bowling

This is the attack Ive been watching play great all around the world over the last 2 years

Good to see they are finally bringing it in Oz

Lol Lyon was almost of the pitch

3rd ump shouldve seen that, not sure if hes allowed to take the player reaction into account though
