What a catch..On ya bike King Kohli..

Reminded me of a catch John Dyson (???) took against Pakistan at MCG many years ago to win the test in the last session.

Reminded me more of AB's catch off John Wright , one hand sprawled out full stretch

Lets hope this Test ends better than that one

Exciting start , pitch seems to be ballooning at times …..hopefully it flattens out by the time we have a hit

That catch at short leg would have been nice but good start. Let’s hope we keep the pressure on

Gee I wish we had Mitch Marsh now

Robertson is a muppet, he has no idea about anything, even cricket and he played the game for his country. Another

One more before lunch!

Serves them right for demanding to play in Adelaide

Poor crowd numbers ….....

I think Aussie cricket has some work to do to get the public supporting them again.

Its just a really bad time of year …....how many of us parents have got end of year stuff /concerts with kids

Start the summer earlier ,have the 1st Test early November, play a bit of BBL,, 20/20 this time of year and once the holidays start get into the Tests gain

My recollection is that the first test was always early November. Why has it changed?

Another reason is it’s bloody expensive. I bought three tickets for day 1 of Sydney test - just in concourse in front of brewongle stand; it was just under $250\. Plus $7 handling fee and I printed the tickets myself!!

It has usually always coincided with the Qld Schoolies week for about the last 25 years , last week in November at the Gabba
 
Shaun Marsh’s dismissal today should result in him never wearing the baggy green again. He is an experienced Australian batsmen. That shot was inexcusable
 
Anyone else watching this hoping head let's a straight one go. It could be head shoulders arms leg before wicket. I'm here all night try the veal

Mate at least he’s digging in unlike our more experienced pretenders like Finch and Marsh

Think that went over your HEAD
 
Hope the boys go down swinging

Did anyone listen to Pant's banter with Cummins

Absolutely brilliant "Patty won't even swing at the bad balls" LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Reason I loved keeping so much ….the banter between batsmen , bowler , keeper and slips always kept a smile on my face
 
Pant is a crap sledger. Everyone was spunking their pants the other day when he was chirping that not everyone was Pujara. How is that even considered banter? Stick to over appealing mate…

Australia should run out Paine and 10 bowlers in the next match. They'd be able to take 20 wickets without any drama and probably score more runs from 1-6 in the batting order.

Bring Renshaw and Burns back.

I know we will still probably lose , but Paine's brain fart after lunch was really , really costly
 
The another aspect that is rather annoying is our batsmen aren't working the ball around for singles …...too busy waiting for that big shot

The only time Ashwin hasn't hit his line was about 30 minutes before lunch when we worked the ball for singles between Paine and Cummins
