Indian cricket officials set to ban 5 stars for breaking COVID rules


Said no one ever

Can we pick them ...Shami ...Rohit Sharma

5 blokes broke COVID protocols apparently- not sure who

The two main ones were Shami and Rohit who were in Rehab and Pant ....didn't recognize the other 2

Won’t matter - Indian officials will come up with some excuse. All will be available for selection

And another Day Night Test will never happen ....probably will ban all cricket when Kohli has more kids as well ....bit like Tottenham in EPL hey @hobbo1 ...they don't have to play team who have Covid ...we when we had 2 players and our coach with Covid and still had to play ......

imo - to be in line with the restrictions the rest of Sydney is adhering to - the SCG Test should be cancelled.

Can’t disagree. Seems a long bow to suggest being with 5 in your home is more dangerous. I’d say Gladys is being squeezed by SCG Trust heavyweights

Problem with these sort of things it relies on so many people doing the exact right thing

Thats a big risk ...what cleaners ....kiosk operators etc do outside of work is the big problem

So India don’t want to play the test in Brisbane now sighting lockdown conditions. A shame if it gets moved as this test series is a chance for them to prove the best in the world and I think they would push this Australian side at the Gabba.

Well if they don’t won’t to play at the Gabba let’s play the 4th test at the WACA that will give them something to whinge about

Honestly this was my first thought as well.

I think that Gladys is letting the test go ahead, knowing that Brisbane will miss out if it goes ahead.
Just playing politics with her arch enemy.

When was the last time we lost a test in Brisbane ....1989 from memory

Honey badger on debut for Australia

India are now refusing to play in Brisbane

 

[happy_tiger]

India are now refusing to play in Brisbane

Well thats an easy way to win a Test ...they don't show up ...they forfeit ......

And I see NZ are the No 1 Test side under ICC ranking now

Normally that would be pretty painful ...but if their was going to be any side bar us ..for me I like the way the Kiwis play at the moment

 

[happy_tiger]

$4 on offer for India to win test .....tempting odds

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

No surprises that our Test side struggles with cohesion and quality coming through the ranks when the Sheffield Shield has been treated with such contempt in promote ADD cricket.

Ok somebody has to say it, Pant is a cheat.

Totally agree, they didnt let India build pressure. Mind you India are missing half of their fast bowling attack.

Yeah they could really sit on Bumrah and the what turn there is is very slow and you can play it off the pitch


Is all the Brisbane talk an attempt to get Australia to understimate India .....

Just a thank you to @Tiger_Steve for the day at the cricket today. A great day watching the rain and play and chatting. Thanks mate.
