The batting since Smith got out has been fairly underwhelming. I kind of thought Smith throwing his wicket away was a clear signal to start swinging... but they never really took off.

It was our incisive, cutting bowling attack that stopped you dead in your tracks

Seriously if we had 3 proper warm up games we couldve hit the series running rather than finally getting with the program halfway through the series

Fun fact: Martin Guptill lost 3 toes on one of his feet due to a forklift accident when he was 13 yrs old

Nickname: 2 toes

Fun fact: Guptill having 2 toes on his left foot sometimes causes him to overbalance to the offside causing him to get dismissed LBW

Really? Because I swear you were singing his praises that he was one of the best off spinners in the world.

Little bit surprised to not see a review there... not because there is a high chance that was out, but first review is always the hail mary.

Lol, I just love the game ( and also have a little hope we can bounce back lol)

Despite my insulting rhetoric towards you aussies and your players, I appreciate the skill and effort involved in playing like they do....

...When they are at home and the series build up is rigged for them at least

Take THAT, Burns! That'll teach you for only averaging 80.

To think Tendulkar called Williamsons greatness before he even hit his straps in international cricket makes me think India need to employ him as chief scout asap

Well you sung his praises for the rare times that he actually did perform but nothing out of the ordinary for you regarding getting your hopes up about a player.

Lol I think you will find the tone of my Craig posts when he performed was of begrudging happiness

Im happyish when someone, even a scrub helps us win a match

Its just you knew he was ****e vs someone good, in fact most offies are come to think of it
