Let Gilchrist talk

[@Mrig143]

This shows how worthless the batting in cricket is. No reverse swing in ODIs, field restrictions, broader bats made the batsmen weak. No one has patience, nobody wants to grind. Test cricket is not dying, Test cricketers are.

[@No3N3MY]

Yeah, the intent to grind on the pitch has been vanishing quite rapidly. Especially with global leagues happening all around the globe. The run scoring in shorter format is becoming easier by each passing day , thus they find it extremely difficult to even trust their defensive ability in the purest format of cricket (which basically has faded away).

[@kaulsam2012]

The pitch deviation on day 1 was almost a degree more than the last 25 years. Fresh drop in pitch and underprepared due to rain and teams now all over the world have quality 3-4 bowlers not 1-2 like before also the ball did not soften either. There can't be any "grinding" in such conditions. Same batters against a team with probably 2 good bowlers and you will see higher scores

[@kaulsam2012]

All the thoughts are nostalgic. Except the Aussies most attacks in late 90 early 2000 had one or 2 quality fast bowlers. Quality of attacks in the last 10 years is very different. Also with WTC teams are designing result oriented pitches which also makes batting Harder.

in a pre match interview Marnus talked about replication what Pujara did on previous tours ... presenting dead bat , leaving balls , tiring out the bowlers , taking some body blows but I guess he forgot one small thing... that is scoring runs 😂

[@viveklakshmanan6556]

i felt the same too

[@R.MadridMessi-Cr7Barca]

Letting Marnus Labuschagne survive on 0 turned out to be a blessing in disguise for India. His time at the crease disrupted Australia’s momentum, slowed down the scoring rate, and gave Indian bowlers the chance to settle into their rhythm. As wickets began to fall at the other end, Labuschagne’s innings ended up costing just 2 runs..a small price to pay for regaining control...

[@BadiNaInsafiHaiRey]

Plus it didn't give any future confidence to.marnus that if you stay long in the middle you can gain something .. Bowlers were relentless... blessing in disguise Indeed

[@cricketanalyst8658]

gilly gentlemen of Australian Cricket

[@lonewolfe2502]

I think one thing to learn from today's batting performance for India is that our Indian player should play their natural game, not too defensive, must not miss the bad deliveries and punish their mistakes. Because runs have to come from somewhere. They're leaving the good deliveries and its fine but they were also missed the bad deliveries too especially one of those deliveries going in leg side or full length deliveries outside off stump. Any delivery which is not targetting the stumps or on full length, they should go for it. It's better to take chances on such deliveries rather than playing shot out of desperation after too many dot balls & throwing away your wicket eventually. Also, this type of batting will also push Australian bowlers on backfoot and ruin their line and length.

For K L Rahul verdict,one key point is whether bat also hit the pad....if so then there should have been two spikes....if there is no two spikes then it is not 100% certainty to declare Rahul caught behind.

[@abhaychaturvedi650]

Absolutely spot on observation by Gilly. Test cricket has suffered due to T20 mindset or probably technique. We don't see individual double hundreds, or 500+ team scores that often. That too when we don't have the ghastly fast bowlers and crafty spinners even pitches are not that hostile.

17 wickets in a single day at Perth is astonishing... But if the same thing happens on the subcontinent tracks, it's a disaster.. the cricketing world starts speaking about poor pitches curated to suit home teams..... Reality is that, the batters have lost the art of staying on the pitch and capitalizing when the bowlers are tired....

[@thegamingguy7864]

Yes and that makes sense coz in subcontinent you need to tamper the wicket to make it spin from bowl one. The Perth wicket is fast and bouncy by its nature and not manipulated

[@milindm7815]

[@harishmr864]

GILLY SPEAKING TRUTH ❤ - In such challenging conditions - i think Test cricket will/could not last for 4/5 days........ Because now batsmans are more of aggressive in most formats & the pitches are also friendly to them and at the same time bowlers are making their hard yards & shaping their weapons in order to match in this batters world........🧐And which helps them to be brutal in these type of wickets........ ✨

[@guyjghhgffffgghggfgghhhgffggg]

In the same 17 wicket on day one a wicket will get better in day 2 a team to score 172 but a turning track can't get better it will become more worse when a day progress so it's a poor pitch

[@SumitKhullar0203]

Great to listen these two ♥️

[@samqr9184]

It’s a 2nd innings shootout now. Australia will come hard bowling in the second innings and look to blow India the same way India did it to them. Can the top 4 of India, Rahul- Kohli in particular can get one partnership at the top? That will decide the match. The pitch will have pace and bounce throughout and chasing anything over 200 will be very tough considering how Bumrah and company are bowling.

[@maneea4334]

yes.....u r right mate, India should look to do that

[@bnallappa]

I am proud of India's performance. Indian batsmen struggled but put premium on their wickets. Most of them got out to great deliveries. But came back strong to take out 7 wickets for 67. Indians need to wrap up quickly the Australian innings. But the match is wide open. We saw a steely KL Rahul and Pant was batting on a different planet and what about Nitish, way to go. I am very proud of this Indian team's play.

Is it only me who feels Harsha started getting little boring and verbose. For example, forcing Gilly's debut conversation into this context , especially how others scored even more runs on his debut is totally unnecessary. You can visibly see Gilly trying to set the context right time and again! I can't believe I am saying this being a huge fan of Harsha since 1999.

[@sandeepgoud1311]

True. I’ve been a huge fan but these days he makes it a bit uncomfortable by speaking a lot in the comm box & tries to overdo the flattery part of his hosts.

[@yanrenyyyanthan8395]

Very good post game analysis by Gilly. I could feel the Indian batters were playing the Australian quicks better than vice versa. Though its too early to say anything a lot will depend on the second innings performance of the Indian Batsmen. Hope they post a good total and not let the bowlers down. Both teams hv Batsmen with big reputstions but with little or no returns. Can see a couple of batsmen hanging up their boots after this series.

If bowler gets wicket from fast bowling means its a good pitch, if bowler gets wicket from spin bowling means pitch is doctored. Test cricket means one has to be tested in all conditions be it spin friendly or pace/bounce friendly or swing/seam friendly.

@himanshusachdev9213 in that case the same standard should apply when the pitch spins a little extra from day 1 itself. And btw this is pitch doctoring. They have left a little too much spice on the pitch or else these international batsmen are not that bad that they won't be able to survive even a session. Aus had doctored the Brisbane pitch as well a couple of years ago and lost 5 wickets chasing 36. It is just that when they do it apologists like you defend them.
