Fantastic knock by Travis Head , loved how Punter said he should never have been dropped for 1st test in India.

Start it was 0/0. End of day one is a decent start, when going in to bat first. Simpleseagleboy wrote: ↑Fri Jun 09, 2023 7:27 pmQuite insightful reply to Bomber.

Re: Aus v India - test series
When even an ex australia coach is saying he didn't think it carried it makes you wonder.

Re: Aus v India - test series
When 2 field umpires and the third umpire are saying there’s nothing to suggest that it didn’t carry, it makes you wonder.

Re: Aus v India - test series
Yet, you replied.
I'll help you out though. By reviewing it the umpires are literally saying they're not sure and that there's something to suggest it didn't carry. If not, they would have just given it out.

Re: Aus v India - test series
let me help you out......after reviewing it, even with the availability of technology, there's nothing to suggest that the on-field umpire should change the original decision. Move on......
BTW....why did you remove your 'thanks to me'? Youre getting sloppy!!!!!!

When did the umpires make an onfield decision? I'll help you out, they didn't.
If there wasn't a suggestion it was grounded, why didn't they just give him out?

Re: Aus v India - test series
While this is great to win - beating England in England means more to me than this.
This is simply an accolade
