India scared of the Dark! - LP - 05-08-2018
Looks like the Day / Night test has been kiboshed by the BCCI(Board for the Corruption of Cricket India) for the coming season.
Pity, it makes a great spectacle, and the ball hooping around helps generate a result.

Makes sense if you are India, they lack pace/swing bowlers and want a 100 degree day on a flat dried out piece of mud that only their spinners can get wickets on.....on the other hand New Zealand would want five day/night tests...

Just hope Mr. weak at the knees Sutherland doesn't capitulate to India again and produce 4 of the flattest tracksinaginable as we did last time. He needs to grow a set and tell them to play where they're told. Like he went weak at the knees 10 years ago with MonkeyGate.

Weak as p!ss from the ACB. Time to send the SACA curator a box of Yates feed n weed.
Re: India scared of the Dark! - Professer E - 05-08-2018
But India want to play a home D/N test versus the Windies. Weak, really weak BCCI.

Be all about rebuilding the brand and making us look like good guys and angels, no sledging, we get to bowl with a tennis ball and the Indians are allowed an extra innings and can use 20 fielders.....
Kohli will have a field day winding our blokes up too and getting away with it......probably be allowed to use an angle grinder on the ball...

What happens when the ones with all the money call the shots. Ironical. The new world order.

Best way to wind Kohli up is to beat his mob.
Re: India scared of the Dark! - Jack Burton - 05-08-2018
Bloody hope so, but without the two blokes who've scored about 50% of our test runs over the last few years it's going to take some others to really step up big time

We've been putting up with their mud spin wickets for decades, it's time to deliver some green tops in return!
