Give Warner a bowl, ****er couldn't do any worse with the ball than what he does with the bat.

No killer instinct.

They look so flat you'd think it was 40 degrees out there.

Also, where are the balls exploding through the surface like the first innings? Effect of the roller?

Yep very flat.

This Test is done, they'll win by an innings.

All the hype around this team lately, let's see how we bounce back for the last three Tests. Are we flat track bullies? I suspect so

True test of character coming up.

And if we dropped him because he's a left hander we're even more stupid. Carey did OK, so I am sure Head would have. Certainly better than Warner and Khawaja.

We need to take 3-4 wickets in the first hour or session to have any chance of clawing our way back into this game.

Nothing wrong with Khawaja.

This from Haddin.

Former wicketkeeper Brad Haddin backed selectors for picking a team he believed was most appropriate for the local conditions.

“I like the team, it is spin-friendly,” Haddin said. “Handscomb is known for being a really good player of spin bowling and has played well in India in the post.

“Travis Head’s record on the subcontinent is poor. It won’t be the last time we see him play on the subcontinent but he will need some time to get used to his game style in these conditions.”
Funny, not a word about his mate's record on the subcontinent.

Also, let's see if anything comes of Jadeja rubbing an unknown substance on his spin finger when bowling.

Probably nothing.

Only cheating if we do it.

Just not good enough. Picking Warner was a dumb call, we all could see how he would go. Dropping Head as well was bizarre.

Lyon very disappointing
