God help me - the Test Cricket thread

I'm probably putting the mockers on them, but I would play young Puckovski if he is fit. Having so many concussions already is a big issue with this lad.
If Puckovski isn't fit, I'd play Harris.
In the last 2 series here, India has 8 of the top 9 individual scores. In at #9 is Harris when he made 79. No Australian has made a century in this series, or the last (when Warner and Smith were unavailable). Considering that we should be controlling the pitch surface to suit our players, I find that an absolute disaster.
Live Long and Prosper!

Ponting said after today's play that the 3rd should be played here ... we'll see.

It's in Sydney.

Something smells after this test,  and it ain't just Australia's stinking performance.  One side bowled at an over  rate akin to a melting glacier, yet the over side got fined.  Gotta keep the BCCI happy....

And something of a backlash happening in the media.

Surely it would have to be played in a bubble with no spectators  :Smile

It is looking that way. Covid is spreading through Sydney, of that there is no doubt. Makes a test there look dubious. Can't see how they can scan the crowd to keep out anyone infected. Better to go with no crowd.

Nah 27000 will be ok.  They will be trusted to not sit next to each other, and wear masks except when they are eating and drinking....

How on earth they can stage this test in Sydney, then go to Brisbane (albeit with a special exemption) defies logic.  I'd be furious if I was in Queensland.

NSW leading the stupidity race as per usual,  daylight second.

I'd be sharing that blame with CA.
