Border Gavaskar Trophy 24/25 - India in Australia.

[asprin]

Why are so many no-balls being bowled by our bowlers. It's only a matter of time until one would have a wicket on it.

Terrific knock by Head, bloke stays rent free in our minds.

Good knock by Marsh as well but I guess it only delays the inevitable.

Bumrah's 1st game as captain saw India lose after setting England a target of 384. He would feel much better after today, should we win this one.

Gavaskar blasted the Bharat Army, seems like he's running out of things to speak. Not too happy with the wordings'Bharat Army' printed across the Indian flag.

Head gone, at the right time!

@Anne Boleyn

 

[icyman]

Almost there now, unless Carey and Hazlewood do a Laxman-Dravid here!

Shardul Thakur >>> Harshit Rana

Rana is like a mix of Umesh & Sreesanth!

 

[harishankar]

Great win. India officially better abroad than at home now.

 

[icyman]

The comparison between Rana and Shardul worked. Australia wrapped up for 238. Massive victory for India here. They came into the Test, with everyone expecting a 5-0 whitewash. India have turned the tide when it mattered the most- reminds me of Perth (WACA) 2008, when everything seemed bleak and the Indians simply strode in and took the win.

What a great win from India. Haven't seen an Australia side at home look that toothless since their last match against West Indies. Although, this is a far more destructive win.

Excellent performances from India all round really.

Australia side at home look that toothless since their last match against West Indies

so our last home Test?

 

[wasteyouryouth]

so our last home Test?

Yep

Australian cricket in shambles

 

[blockerdave]

Incredible result

Guess the next time, the BGT will start in Brisbane!

India wins with a weaker squad- that's like Melbourne, Brisbane and now Perth. Or maybe, its playing against Australia that gets the best out of India.

 

[ddrap14]

India wins with a weaker squad

I don't know about that. We had crap batting written all over us, you had Bumrah, and then you were forced to not play your two worst batsmen (sorry Cricfan)

 

[icyman]

Ha Ha! Okay, weaker-on paper.

Bumrah was exceptional. Head apart, no other Aussie was able to negotiate the bowling. Smith and Labuschagne were found wanting there.
