The standard of wickets in Australia has dropped through the floor in recent years. Plenty of articles about it last summer.

What is the reason for this? Is it due to the move to drop in pitches? Or CA deliberately making those to ensure games go 5 days?

I find it staggering that Australia didn't schedule a match at the Gabba, they've not lost there in 20 years? BCCI must've really sweet talked them...

Multipurpose stadiums in Australia. Used for afl and other events.

Means massive stadiums yet pitched become generic

The Aussie charm offensive against Kohli worked. For the last few days the majority of CA content was about how the sunshines from Kohli's rear end. And Kohli's loose stroke can be attributed to him falling into the hype.

Anyway the pitch was pretty docile and India's batting was inept. Flat footed drives against the new ball. Whilst Pujara played well he's not really much of a batsman outside Asia so you can see that it's a flat pitch.

Australia should be winning by an innings

219 more to win on the final day. It’s probably up to marsh to get a big one.

Don’t see it happening, India have a real chance to go 1-0
With the Aussies playing 4 bowlers, one of them was bound to break down

They read out Starcs stats since the Ashes series. Think it was 16 wickets at 37ish so hasn't been a great year for him

Let's hope all 3 break down by July and they bring Hilfenhaus, Bollinger and Siddle. Those were the days.....

Something to do with sandpaper? And not having the ball reverse swinging a mile

Someone write somewhere(may have been Twitter) after the sandpaper gate thing.

“I feel sorry the most for Mitchell Starc, dude genuinely thought he was world class, swinging it round corners at 90 plus miles an hour, and now he’s just realised 80percent of that wasn’t actually him......”


Stats proving that to be true.

Sorry but Starc's issues are mental and not this continual reference to 'sandpaper'. Considering he's one of the most injury prone fast bowlers around, his consistency at landing the ball is all over the shop at present. I'm pretty certain when Starc was getting Cook out for fun last Ashes, that they weren't sanding the brand new ball. Starc has been dreadful this match hurdled 12-16 byes past poor old Tim Paine. The 2018 Starc has become more like the 2010-11 Johnson - bowls to the left, bowls to the right

You normally quote stats till the cows come home so don't just ignore this one. Would be interested to see Hazlewoods and Cummins averages pre and post cryingcheatgate

The stats where already posted above why would I repost the same figures?

Hazlewood and Cummins played the last test in South Africa. Hazlewood took no wickets and Cummins took 9 wickets. Neither toured the Middle East.

Cummins has bowled beautifully every time I've seen him the last year or so.

Be interesting to see how Shaun Marsh goes, seems to get a lot of stick these days.
