Well we got Shubman but we really need to get Rohit or Virat shortly

These 2 bat for an hour together and they could pile them on ... mozz factor activated!!

    I'm just going on our form in this cup where we have won more batting first. But Cummins is thinking the dew will affect their spinners.

    Starc has hit some form at the pointy end of the series.

    Each match has different conditions to factor in

    And it's a team decision so McDonald (the coach) would be on board with the decision.  Along with the other senior players

    But I do like attacking decision making in any kind of sport

    1-54 off 7 overs is advantage India, all the same

    I'd say even Stevens at the minute.

    Good score at 8 am over.

    But two down.

    Head is one of the best fielders in the game for me.

    Bowling first and now they're 3-81

    Hmmmmmm

    And as we all know, wickets can slow the run rate ... unless it doesn't!  haha

    That Travis Head catch was a contender for mark of the round.

    It was just a freak effort.  Especially in such a big match

    He may have lost sight of the ball as well which makes it all the more remarkable

    Mozz factor is working (for now)

    It's like the spectators version of a powerplay

    The script is there to be written for Kohli. However, if we break this partnership early we are up to our eyeballs in this 😍

    Building pressure. No boundaries.

    Time for a wicket I say.

    Yep, we created a holding pattern but they will launch again soon enough

    As you said, another wicket needed to set them back again

    Right now, I'd take 270 - 290 as India will want more than that

    Yep. No boundaries but still scoring.

    Think they will be happy with easy runs then will start to accelerate.

    Agreed a 270-290 a good effort to restrict them to this. Hopefully bit better and lower than that with the start we've made.

    Yeah, but it's Kohli ... he will have set himself to make a big 100

    Anything less than 270 is a bonus right now ... they could get 5 or 6 an over from here in 1's & 2's

    The issue for India right now is they need to get some 2's at least ... but we have fielded brilliantly and are keeping them to 1's only

    Remembering that Jadeja is their no.7 and he's more of a hitter not an occupier ... their next batsman in (Yadav) is the last of their recognised batsmen

    Another one!  5 - 178 off 36 overs

    The ball is starting to hoop with reverse swing ... and Hazlewood is the man for the occasion.  Starc & Cummins can exploit as well but Hazlewood is in the spotlight just coming on now ... 4 overs left

    Gee, thought that was a low percentage review. Next ball actually nicks it. Shut me up 🤣😂

    We've done our homework pinging the ball in on the bounce at every opportunity

    All legal of course but I remember a time when the umpires would warn players if they deliverately threw the ball in on the bounce ... times have changed

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
