Australia tour of India (Feb '17/Mar '17)

[asprin]

Well played Australia. Thoroughly outplayed India in all departments.

I was expecting Lyon to be the star but he too got overshadowed.

Nonetheless, all is not lost.

And this is the reason I never get overconfident and spew nonsense even before a bowl is bowled. Ganguly/Harbhajan/others might be staying away from the media for a while.

Well played Australia. Thanks for giving a reality check to a few fans.

Hope India learn something from this and turn the tables around.

Its good to see Crystal clear approach from Kohli blaming it on the players and himself not on the pitch and taking the defeat as punch in the chin. He said it was not suprising to see the kind of wicket they just played badly and now vows to comeback better in the upcoming games.

Too old IMO he's almost 35

Voges ? ROGERS ? surely Hartley can play for two years and then (Bancroft can take over)

3-1. Very well played Oz. Congrats to their fans, but I'm still very bullish about India. It's a blip in a well oiled machine.

Handscomb?

As a KEEPER NO !!![DOUBLEPOST=1488018094][/DOUBLEPOST]

Well, 2004 isn't happening in a million years. I can guarantee Australia will get hammered 4-0. I would say an innings defeat in at least 3.

GUARANTEE? WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT ??

4-0, a clear, a crystal clear whitewash. Yes, be scared Australia, be very scared.

Alright Bro

Law of Equilibrium.
Twice India stopped Australia's 16-match unbeaten streaks,here Australia has broken India's 19 match unbeaten run.

Not the same, there is already a superior player at a younger age.[DOUBLEPOST=1488018412][/DOUBLEPOST]

They were invincbles in my opinion at home or away and always a team to fear. It is impossible in this era to have such a long steak.

Don't see Jayant Yadav playing the next test. O'Keefe reminds me a lot of Panesar at Mumbai.

Why not unleash Kuldeep Yadav ? , otherwise it's going to be Bhuvi[DOUBLEPOST=1488018939][/DOUBLEPOST]LOL ! I went to sleep a bit @1 PM
Score- somehwere around 50/3

@3:30PM when I woke up , the PRESENTATION was going on

Waiting for ICC's verdict on this pitch , which IMO would be senseless
Because batsmen were getting out mostly on straight balls

What icc verdict? it was the home side who lost not the visting team , no one will complain about this pitch.It would have been a different story if Australia would have lost this people here would then be talking dustbowls stuff and all.The fact of the matter is Australia is leading the series 1 - 0 and the dreams of 4 -0 and chasing 450 is gone.

Actually, the match referee decides wether the pitch was poor or not, regardless of who won.

Australia finally took a tour to Asia seriously, and the result is in front of you.

If the Australians would've lost , then
Clear - "Pune pitch described to be poor & given a warning" LOL

It was a troll on ICC what I mentioned , because now ICC won't tell anything looking at the result

Yeah they have worked went to Dubai prior to the series and O keefe skipped big bash and played the red ball cricket and result is indeed in front of us. But i was just wondering about the warm up game when both the spinners were bashed by Iyer and Gowtham (obviously on a much better) .
