Re: Aus v India - test series
Amazing to read in yesterdays Advertiser, Ben Horne castigating the Indians for "sledging" the mighty aussies. Over the top, says Horne. How dare the Indians do such a thing. As if the aussies would do that to an opposition side. In Boofheads words,
" Never, ever, ever." Hypocrisy in its purest form.

The Indian media were criticising Kohli as well, saying that if he cannot prove Smith of cheating, then he should get a longer ban...

Even Smith admitted it was wrong. Still a mountain out of a molehill (by Kohli anyway) given nothing would have ever come of itGod is an Englishman wrote:I still note the usual suspects haven't admitted what smith did was wrong

Re: Aus v India - test series
Aussies will lose this test, Indians with the momentum...
The Aussies batting (other than Smith) has been terrible

Re: Aus v India - test series
The whingeing has already started online that the Indians haven't produced a pitch to Australia's liking

Re: Aus v India - test series
I'm not whingeing, after all its to be expected that India will make pitches to suit themselves best they can. That said, I've seen better decks in the streets of Coober Pedy.

Great comeback by Smith.
Pretty impressive stats so far.

Re: Aus v India - test series
Will this stop the whingeing about the pitch now?
Smith has to be up there with the best batsmen in the world right now.
1. Root
2. Kohli
3. Smith
Not bad for a bloke who was only good enough to play for Sevenoaks Vine Reserves.

Aussies look in trouble, as predicted.
The Indians should wrap the game up on last day, not needing to bat again.
