Good to see MMarsh has improved on his first innings score. He is heading in the right direction.

I think I missed it? Ah. Nine.

 

[QF WP]

You’re underplaying his innings @Pushka, it was 10. Again, failing to impress.

At least we’ll get past 151 in this innings.

Resumption post tea. 5/142

Watching it is like scratching fingernails down a blackboard.
There is an inevitability....and not pleasant for the Australians.

Paddy coughmins putting all the batters to shame.
Highest innings score 50

 

[QF WP]

coughmins gets a 50 (his second this year) and gets a:standing ovation. Highest Australian score. Sledging is alive and well from the Indians.

Stumps

Well done Pat, pity some of the 'batsmen' couldn't have produced more, given that a lot of them got starts.

Here's hoping for rain all day tomorrow.

It is impossible to watch the Aussies bat at the moment as some sort of collapse is almost certain!

They were saying today he is the cricketer we need these days. Always with a smile. Hard working. Amiable. He seemed to be joking with the Indians.

And Handscomb scores 70 in the BBL as an opener.

 

[rock86]

Yes, has batted well for 2 Ashes tons. Runs on the board. Forgotten by the online mob mentality. Lord of the Flies, frenzy, lol.
Can’t be in much more of a mess....not sure what you’ve been watching.
Still not sure what your solutions are.....who is your failsafe #6, the messiah. I’m sure you have a list? Maybe they can go 3,4,5 as well.
We need help!!

An update to his 2017 & 2018 seasons, 12 tests for 589 runs @ 26.8 - great 'runs on the board'......

This is our issue isn't it, we've got a Test series going on and all our fringe players are playing hit & giggle cricket!!

6/101 and 6/157 is a very poor effort. Still a chance apparently which is rather unbelievable based on the above and Indians declaring twice.

Yes and no Sheffield shield being played right across mid summer. And we wonder why.

Hit and giggle cricket is the basis for most of our batting issues. But that’s where the easy $$$ are.

Agree. And not just $$$ for the players. The future of most Test cricket looks bleak sadly.

As for coughmins, he shows real class including great attitude.
