what a fecking decision that is
 |
|
By:
25 times in a row the team that won toss electects to bat here UNTIL NOW!
 |
|
By:
Backing the draw is my only option.
|
|
By:
The mind boggleth
|
|
By:
22 of those though was an absolute featherbed in roasting temperatures when 500 was par first up. not quite the same now
all the same looks a defensive move |
|
By:
juce I thought it was obvious
day/night test...worst time to bat is under lights surely if you have the chance to bat up top in daylight you take it??? even if they bowl aus out in 2 sessions for 150, they have a session under lights to bat 50/5 you've gained fck all makes no sense to me whatsoever & I agree with you mafe it smacks of a defensive call |
|
By:
and more likely 160/3 when the night session comes around and NEEDING to take wickets
|
|
By:
The worst decision since Flintoff batted in Melbourne under lights because he was petrified about Warne bowling last. I seem to remember that turned out well too, I was fecking there!!
|

By:
 on a separate point...not sure I am keen on the developed stadium  I prefer the old school feel to the adelaide oval |
|
By:
big call from Joe
 |
|
By:
yep been both before and after. the massive new stands tower over the grassy bank which has been reduced to about the minimum size they could get away with

365 runline 366

By:
Definitely tempted on a lumpy on Aus. As previously mentioned, even if they get 150/200 we could get skittled under the lights
|
|
By:
no bet for me yet...hope we have a contest
|
|
By:
if Warner gets going heads could be down by lunch
|
|
By:
mafe...NZ the place for (admittedly smaller) largely unspoilt old school grounds, grass banks etc
boutique venues adelaide now just looks like get em in & stack em up high |

By:
not a fan of d/n for tests juce
ODIs yes |
|
By:
nah, it virtually takes the draw out of the equation and therefore makes it difficult to make a lot
|
|
By:
come on Jimmy
|
|
By:
let's hope it does plenty or we are well and truly fooked
|
|
By:
bit windy

|
By:

|
|
By:
India have won the toss and have opted to bat
i wanted Lanka to bat 1st |
|
By:

Really negative tbh, all our captains go defensive for some reason. Overton in is another bizarre decision on this pitch aswell, might be proven wrong we shall see. This could end up being a hammering if we dont get a few early on.

By:
Raindrops on the camera?
|
|
By:
yeah
|
|
By:
Been on the draw so enjoying this run down
|
|
By:
well done,i didnt think it would move that much
|
|
By:
Overton is quick and has got a bit of nasty in him I hear, looking forward to seeing what he's got.
|
|
By:
laid the draw massively at 5.1
Couldn't resist that price |
|
By:
I laid at 5.1 as well. Not massive though.
|
|
By:
put it there again Jimmy
