Finally Hazlewood replaced with Starc, I just hope they don't take Cummins off and bowl Hazlewood from that end.

If he was injured Baggers for the first 2 tests I'd say he's over it now. But it doesn't excuse playing a non 100% player.

 Would that edge have carried to a second slip? Coms seem to think it may have.

Baggers I don't need to rubbish Hazlewood he does it by himself. I'm just pointing it out, real live transmission. You know you're rubbish when M Marsh comes on to replace you.

But credit to Mayank Agarwal in his debut test showing up a very innocuous bowling attack. Surely this has to be a message to those concerned, that they have the Australian bowling order wrong and Cummins has to be given the new ball. I cannot believe Lyons in the 1st session of the 1st day of a test is bowling before Cummins. Starc and Hazlewood wasted the new ball and Cummins never gets the opportunity with a harder ball and proud seam. And Baggers you wonder why I am frustrated with Hazlewood. Surely you agree.

Hazlewood did his job as opener in first two tests. Where were your biast comments then Mike ? 

Not often I concur with you  but yes Cummins new found pace has to be utilised with the new ball. If the ball is not swinging.. Starc is all but useless.

Blokes with the pace to bang in the ball will profit on this deck. I can see Bumrah doing a similar job to Cummins.

Just for you Baggers here is the list of leading wicket takers for 2018

http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/bowling/most_wickets_career.html?class=1;id=2018;type=year

Note the average and his position, his strike rate etc, etc, etc. Am I reading this right only 23 wickets this year? And he gets paid over a million dollars to do that? I don't see you pointing this out during your pro Josh "Glow-worm" Hazlewood campaign, but I won't lower myself to call you bias. That's just insulting. And yes I do know Chris Tremain is born in Dubbo NSW, a very nice place to visit, ever been to the zoo there?

I wouldn't mind a rotation policy when it comes to fast bowlers. It makes sense given our depth and the workload on bowlers

would also give an excuse to try new bowlers

Pujara is rock like once he gets in. Can see why the quicks say he is the big Indian wicket.

Marsh has been very tidy. He is an under rated bowler in my view.

New ball swung for first two overs.

Two gazzundas from a new ball.. What a bloody joke of a track.
