Australia v India l 1st Test l December 9-13, 2014 l Adelaide

[Bilal7]

Because people should look at themselves in a mirror first before throwing mud at others.

No, people should learn to take a little banter on a cricket forum when they are never shy of dishing it out.

Butthurt Indian fans are so sensitive, lol.

 

[Thivagar]

What happened to Clarke ?

 

[BlackThunder]

Fawad is the best leggie in Australia at the moment says Stuart. Should give a him a go soon.

Bilal once again lets his fetish for beard blind his judgement. What are your thoughts about the Kiwi player Devcich? He is right up your alley.

 

[BlackThunder]

Smith has become a very good batsman. He is a big wicket nowdays.

 

[Fallen King]

Doesn't help when the touring teams put up no fight

So zzzzz worthy.

What can the touring team do when the pitch is absolute flat? We are talking about team that has weak bowling attack.

Pakistan with the help of strong bowling attack failed to win the Adelaid test match too.

The Gabba will be better

Let's hope so. Not watching the current on-going Test match. I will wait for Gabba Test.

*finger crossed*

Fawad has a beard?

And its not me saying that you imbecile, its Stuart.

 

[Bilal7]

What happened to Clarke ?

Back gave way.

 

[Convict]

Yeah but the other legspinners getting games are the likes of Cameron White

 

[Justcrazy]

Warner can get a really big one here , if he remains conscious .

 

[Convict]

This is an explanation of Clarke's condition from a different forum

Degenerative disks, the pads that cushion his lumbar spine are getting smaller and more brittle by the day, and causes all sorts of hamstring tightness, nerve pain, sciatica. All sorts of really debilitating issues. He has been battling with it all his career, and frankly i'm surprised he has lasted this long.

It's going to be very tough from here.

 

[Bilal7]

Yeah but the other legspinners getting games are the likes of Cameron White

I know. Lyon is the one good spinner in Australia. Although the pace stocks are the best in the world.

 

[Thivagar]

Warnie the legend intelligent analysis.

 

[Bilal7]

Indians in a sour mood today. Chin up lads, atleast you got yourself a phaast bowler!

 

[Justcrazy]

Shami back for another spell.

 

[Bilal7]

Disappointed with Shami though. He was the one I thought would cause the most damage.

 

[Justcrazy]

Beautiful shot by Smith

 

[Thivagar]

Bilal once again lets his fetish for beard blind his judgement. What are your thoughts about the Kiwi player Devcich? He is right up your alley.

Saw him in Bigbash, he is not that bad. At the same time he is not that good either. He is decent, but i think Australia will stick to Nathon Lyon and Steve Smith combo.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Such a poor bowler shami is.

 

[BlackThunder]

Fawad has a beard?

And its not me saying that you imbecile, its Stuart.

Who is Stuart?

 

[Thivagar]

Yeah but the other legspinners getting games are the likes of Cameron White

Can you list your top 3 leggies from Australia ? How good are they ? How is Muirhead ?

 

[Convict]

Who is Stuart?

Western Australia's mighty Stuart MacGill

Can you list your top 3 leggies from Australia ? How good are they ? How is Muirhead ?

Boyce and Muirhead are the only decent prospects.

 

[Sandeep]

Shami is useless when there's no reverse swing. Umesh would've been a better choice here

 

[BlackThunder]

Western Australia's mighty Stuart MacGill

Oh ok, thanks. Didn't know Bilal and MacGill were on first name basis.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Shami is useless when there's no reverse swing. Umesh would've been a better choice here

Dont think it wouldve made any difference...

 

[Sandeep]

The wicket is flat but would be fun watching Johnson bowl on the same deck. Different class

 

[Justcrazy]

Tea

238 / 2

 

[Thivagar]

Western Australia's mighty Stuart MacGill



Boyce and Muirhead are the only decent prospects.

Boyce doesn't seem to have good record for a leggie. I guess it is up to me to then

 

[BlackThunder]

Good session by us. Didn't allow the Aussies to get away on this flatbed. Once we get one of these two out the Aussies fall like a pack of cards #BleedBlue

Oh they are bleeding all right

 

[Romali_rotti]

lol this will be brutal for Indians

 

[OZGOD]

Is Kohli going to be suspended from the second Test for this atrocious over rate?

 

[Saurav]

Vijay on lol

 

[MenInG]

Did Clarke retire hurt?

What happened?

[Justcrazy]

India have been tighter after Tea so far.

 

[Romali_rotti]

back spasms..

 

[Random Aussie]

50 overs in two sessions.............

 

[Justcrazy]

Stumping appeal !!!

 

[BlackThunder]

Stumping appeal !!!

Your stream is just crazy. Its at least 5 to 10 mins behind. Use google should be able to find a proper one.

 

[Random Aussie]

At this rate they'll be taking the new ball midway through the morning session tomorrow.

 

[Thivagar]

Indian bowlers are on fire with their pace. Murali Vijay with 95km/h off spin

Clarke forced to retire hurt with back injury

Skipper suffers injury after battling half-century midway through first day's play in Adelaide

Australia captain Michael Clarke retired hurt halfway through the afternoon session after injuring his troublesome back. Clarke was on 60 when he swayed out of the way of an Ishant Sharma bouncer 25 minutes before the tea interval, the innocuous delivery causing the 33-year-old to wince in pain and call for assistance.

Bupa Support Team doctor Peter Brukner and physio Alex Kountouris rushed to Clarke’s side, and after a series of stretches and tests, walked from the field. Clarke had batted for 84 minutes and struck nine fours in a pain-free knock, before the awkward evasive position caused his back to flare up again. After re-injuring his hamstring in the first Carlton Mid ODI in Perth last month, Clarke had been in doubt for the first Test in Brisbane before the tragic passing of Phillip Hughes resulted in a reshuffle of the summer Test schedule which had allowed the skipper time enough to prove his fitness.

Clarke has spoken about the back issues he's managed since the age of 17, with three degenerative discs in his lower back the main concern. "I had my first scan at 17 that said I had degeneration in my disc," Clarke told the press last year. "I have been able to manage it this long, I don't see any reason why I can't continue to manage it for the rest of my career. "It's a combination of things, my back gets irritated when I'm in flexion and I rotate. "Sometimes with degeneration of the disc, it can flare up."

[Thivagar]

:yshah1))

 

[Random Aussie]

14 overs 0/60 on a first day road on debut is decent for a leg spinner IMO

 

[Sam18696]

Hello neighbours. I see Warner is giving you a phainty

 

[Thivagar]

WARNER GONEEEEEE. Leggie every leggie deserves every wicket. N

 

[Thivagar]

Hello neighbours. I see Warner is giving you a phainty

You jinxed it

 

[Sam18696]

At this rate Warner might actually break Lara's record.

 

[BlackThunder]

Yessss!!!!!!

Time to finish them off #BleedBlue

 

[Sam18696]

Ah man Warner

 

[NZcricketfan]

At this rate Warner might actually break Lara's record.

He is out. You jinxed him

 

[Sam18696]

You jinxed it

Well he was anyway

 

[Thivagar]

Did Australia name the wrong Marsh ? This one seems to have FC average of 29

Congrats to the leggie! Always good to see leg spin in Test cricket.

He is Pieces. Watson is Bits. Together they are...

) Genius.

 

[DarkKnightRisesAgain]

Saha pathetic indian voice is so irritating, I were smith/marsh, I would have punch him in the throat!

 

[Thivagar]

Karn Sharma's action is a bit different for his googly. Not a good sign.

 

[NZcricketfan]

31 overs left in the day. Poor stuff

 

[Thivagar]

I've been watching Indian domestic matches for about year now thanks to willow tv. Pankaj Singh looks like the only world class bowler from India . I'd rate him above Shami, Bhuvi, Yadav, Ishant and Aron, not trolling.

 

[Thivagar]

Karn did a Warnie

 

[adarsh_bang]

Something tells me Dhoni must be jumping in joy at this absolute phainty we are getting at the hands of the (pumped up) Aussies.

 

[adarsh_bang]

What is the status of Clarke's back? Is he batting again in the series?

 

[Aman]

he is pieces. Watson is bits. Together they are...

[Thivagar]

This is weird, in slow-mo every Karn's variation seems to come out with different bowling action. Maybe he is trolling and has 2 different ways of bowling googlies and top spinners ?

 

[Varun]

Still shouldn't make it back to the test team.

 

[Kianig89]

India business as usual down under

 

[Justcrazy]

India need to get smith here.

 

[Convict]

Did Australia name the wrong Marsh ? This one seems to have FC average of 29

Of 48 since November last year.

His average is poor because he was selected for WA as a teenage and kept on getting games due to talent and because he normally made starts/performed with the ball.

 

[adarsh_bang]

Still shouldn't make it back to the test team.

But he will. Whether we like it or not.

 

[Bashira_taeli]

After facing Yasir, this Sharma lad is a piece of cake for Smith.

 

[Thivagar]

Congrats to the leggie! Always good to see leg spin in Test cricket.

Yess, was tired of seeing fake offies. Most useless kinds of bowlers with their 3 variations

 

[Justcrazy]

Smith coming down the pitch now too often , needs to be careful

 

[Varun]

After facing Yasir, this Sharma lad is a piece of cake for Smith.

Yasir may be better than Karn, but the bigger variable is that this game is being held in Australia and not outside of it.

 

[Justcrazy]

280 / 6

 

[Justcrazy]

Kohli would be hoping ishant strikes here.
