 SO am I. This is what I have written on that subject.
If they considered he was underdone why the hell did they pick him? They could have given the nod to a rookie like Jake Weatherald  or an elder stateman like Callum Ferguson.. both of whom have been in prime form.


Starc wasting the new ball.

What an incredible catch by Labu.. told you this bloke was a specialist short leg. Have you seen the footage of him practising his catching in his kitchen?

Don’t know what you guys, Baggers and Grazorblade think, but I reckon Starc’s a bit erratic.

Siddle has better line and length. Two close LBW shouts as well as nearly bowling him out last ball.

brilliant bowling by siddle

gets one to cut back then plays the same  ball but knocked off the seem. Really deserved a nick but the batsmen left it

if he keeps getting balls to nip back he'll either get some indecision or knock over the stumps

Ahzar doesn’t know where his Off stump is. Siddle has nearly bowled him out twice from leaves.

I can live with erratic if you make the batsmen play

starc does enough that he get get his length wrong but he wastes the new ball if his line is wrong

Lee has same analysis as Grazorblade on Siddle.

Lee is happy with Starc too so far. He said Starc is making life hell for Paine as a keeper.

we are bowling ok but this looks like a 300-350 pitch not a collapse pitch. Some good luck, good bowling and poor batting

 Massive Pak collapso. Lyon spinning rings around them.

Paine should bring Labuchagne on after lunch as he prob gets more bounce than the other two tweakers.

I am thinking if Lyon is getting such sharp turn then their spinners will be dynamite on this deck.

Why the heck has it taken Tim so long to introduce Labuchagne. This bloke is a wicketaker.
