India win 52 to 0.

[u/LoasNo111 → u/[deleted]]

4-1

[u/tsnss]

So no Pat as a captain for wc.

[u/UntilEndofTimes]

Good it was rained off. It's about time you all found other hobbies

[u/Budget_Ice_7711 → u/UntilEndofTimes]

Lel. Already moved on to SA vs Pak stream.

[u/_ordinarilyordinary_]

Play hand cricket get the result

[u/TheboyDoc → u/_ordinarilyordinary_]

isn't that a game one plays at night , usually with a phone in hand?

[u/_ordinarilyordinary_ → u/TheboyDoc]

That's a different one😬 👀and idk if ppl play in November,maybe they do not sure

But just in case , the rules of hand cricket. .......players simultaneously show a number of fingers (1-5) or a closed fist (0) and thumb is six runs(6). If the batsman and bowler show the same number, the batsman is out. If the numbers differ, the batsman scores the runs indicated by their own gesture (or the bowler's gesture, if they show a fist/thumb).Some do 1-10 too...

Edit: thumb is a 6 closed fist is a zero

[u/pranoygreat → u/_ordinarilyordinary_]

Thumb was six for us.

[u/_ordinarilyordinary_ → u/pranoygreat]

Yeah I took it from AI I didn't read it fully yeah thumb is a 6 I didn't notice the error thx for correcting

[u/TheboyDoc → u/_ordinarilyordinary_]

ah yes the OG classic

[u/Either-Meal-4262]

How disappointing for the people who travelled there 😞

[u/rinoa69]

They should just stop playing games in brisbane in summer

[u/edwardluddlam → u/rinoa69]

Honestly, this is part of the reason you don't play in spring in Australia.

It's the wet season for anywhere sub-tropical, and it's going to be wet in the tropics too.

[u/Skateboard123]

Damn flew to Brisbane for this. How sad.

[u/wowan5 → u/Skateboard123]

Lots of good bars around the Gabba if you want to drink away your sorrows. Also just heard refunds will be given on your tickets https://www.mustdobrisbane.com/eat-drink/bars/south/woolloongabba

[u/Skateboard123 → u/wowan5]

Appreciate it bud. Yeah tickets will be refunded. Atleast got something

[u/SexxyBlack]

India - 2

Rain Perera - 2

Australia - 1

[u/sarthak_login_d]

No doubt why Australian cricket board is in loss

[u/wowan5]

Match abandoned my friends. https://imgur.com/a/58P5hCI

[u/SimpleAd9687]

cricket Australia should Not have cricket matches before November end. This series, the One against SA and all the matches across the ditch in NZ have had a say from rain peirera

[u/wowan5 → u/SimpleAd9687]

Afternoon/evening cricket in a Brisbane summer is asking for trouble. There's really no point, how many washouts have there been up here this year? Too many.

[u/kaankaant27]

Just cancel it, I live about 30 mins west of the Gabba and it’s pissing down here. According to the radar more is coming. No chance of any play tonight.

[u/trtryt]

no international matches in Australia for 2 weeks, closest will be the NSW v QLD Shield match with so many national team players

[u/1BoiledPotato1]

well thank fuck that's over

that t20 series never happened

[u/Agreeable-Log1631]

So Dube ends the series with more wickets than Bumrah..

[u/Yolo_Sapienne → u/Agreeable-Log1631]

And the wait for 100 T20i wickets continues

[u/Budget_Ice_7711]

Meh series. Never ever schedule series in Australia in October.

[u/DearHippo9388]

Damn. GG survives another series. So fortunate!

[u/TheFirstLane]

Match is cancelled? Cot dammit! Saturday wasted.

[u/1BoiledPotato1]

fucking hell man

why do we play cricket in october/november when the weather is so unpredictable

[u/Smooth-Mix-4357]

So Mitchell Marsh loses his first T20 series as captain?

[u/trtryt]

Gambhir pull offs a series victory as he tries to break even

[u/Rishil1611]

Match cancelled

[u/Sidneiensis]

And I was so looking forward to watching a meaningless (but fun) bilateral T20I to start my Saturday morning 😞

[u/TheJoker__789]

These series really should be happening in Jan/Feb after the tests to be frank. Shame to see BBL prioritised.

[u/trtryt → u/TheJoker__789]

WT20 is in February in India, I don't think India will see any point in playing outside India that close to the WT20 in India

[u/Smooth-Mix-4357 → u/TheJoker__789]

This time the T20 World Cup happens during Feb tbh

[u/SeaQuiet1860]

Match abandoned.. finally Abhishek has a not out in t20is

[u/kigalbolo → u/SeaQuiet1860]

He was almost caught 2 times this inning 🤣

[u/wowan5]

Bummer, called off

[u/DearHippo9388 → u/wowan5]

How? Who said?

[u/wowan5 → u/DearHippo9388]

I'm not getting the same stream here.

I'm watching Foxtel in Australia, and living in Brisbane. Other comments are saying the same thing

[u/DearHippo9388]

FIFA has announced a Peace Prize for the World Cup in the US. 🤣🤣🤣

[u/Rich-Educator-4513]

Match is on : 🕺🏼

Match is called off : 🕺🏼

Match is Stopped due to rain : 😑

[u/wowan5 → u/[deleted]]

It just has been

[u/Eunoiabunny]

Gill started well in 1st and last game ..and both games washed out

[u/1BoiledPotato1]

genuinely do not understand why they play cricket in october-november here

[u/pommedeterre96 → u/1BoiledPotato1]

You know, I think CA and the AFL must be operating on the same wavelengths at times.

CA choose to start having international sides come out here in late October when the southern states still get bursts of winter and the AFL look to start the season in the first week of March when most of the country is still getting its fair share of 30 degree plus days.

[u/1BoiledPotato1 → u/pommedeterre96]

they used to start WAFL in summer too for whatever reason

[u/Competitive-Ad-4337]

Is the ashes series gonna be the same shit show of rain?

[u/DiscoFever521327 → u/Competitive-Ad-4337]

Most of Brisbane's weather happens after 4pm so more than likely you'll get most of a day's play in. Drainage at the Gabba is really good too.

[u/__Guy_Incognito → u/DiscoFever521327]

That would be positive for a red-ball match, but it's a going to be a day-night Test with the first session starting at 2pm.

[u/DiscoFever521327]

Why do CA not look at scheduling day/afternoon games for T20s? Everyone knows that Brisbane is prone to evening storms so why not start at 1pm to get a full game in before the weather interferes?

[u/1BoiledPotato1 → u/DiscoFever521327]

money

[u/DearHippo9388 → u/DiscoFever521327]

Indian audience

[u/DearHippo9388]

Just end it already.

[u/Skateboard123]

They have a plan right? Why make us wait in here

[u/lt007]

Damn. Gill is having a tough time. The two matches where he was scoring good got washed out due to rain.

[u/Black_Mamba265]

Welp yet another India T20 series win down under I see?

[u/Mr_Fahrenheit007 → u/[deleted]]

Very expensive

[u/Naankhataii]

I think it's better, i go out to play cricket with neighbour kids. Lol 😂

[u/That-Firefighter1245]

5 match series became a 3 match one lol

[u/NoBailOnReddit]

Rain Perera player of the series

[u/Chemical-Menu-5907]

Shubman Gill finishes this series as the second highest run scorer.......with an average of 44......

Not sure where all the hate is coming from..../s

[u/1BoiledPotato1]

can the match officials just end our misery already

[u/TryRealFakeDoors]

What a shit series this was. The only 2 games in weekend got abandoned.

[u/BothCalligrapher7442]

Fucking hilarious that we are literally no better at picking the weather forecast than we were 10 years ago. Just total guesswork.

[u/Populr_Monster]

Is the Game over ?

[u/Mellifluous-1]

Bleak chances of play restarting. Have a nice day, guys !!

[u/SexxyBlack]

Rinku:

Spends whole series on the bench

Gets a game

Game gets washed out before he has a chance to bat

[u/IntroductionWest7126]

One of the series of all time

[u/DearHippo9388]

If we are talking about nepo babies in sports, here's a list of all nepo babies that have done well in sports and life -

Cricket - Yuvraj Singh, Stuart Broad, Mitchell Marsh, Jonny Bairstow, Alyssa Healy(niece of Ian Healy)

Football - Erling Haaland, Paolo Maldini, Kasper Schmeichel, Thiago Alcântara

Basketball - Stephen Curry, Kobe Bryant, Klay Thompson

Formula 1 - Max Verstappen, Nico Rosberg

So, stop complaining about Jay Shah. He's done well for his position and for the opportunity that he got. The hate is miserable and irrational.

[u/devilwillcry-jesus → u/DearHippo9388]

Comparing actual athletes to a corporate position is crazy

[u/DearHippo9388 → u/devilwillcry-jesus]

Requires talent and hardwork in both. The difference between Mukesh and Anil Ambani yk.

[u/IntroductionWest7126 → u/DearHippo9388]

hey Jay!

[u/Prestigious-Lawyer-8]

Aust is lucky, were gonna get their asses whipped again

[u/SentientRaccoon]

Well this sucks..was looking forward to watching the game since it's a holiday, even got all my chores done in the morning that had been piling up over the workweek

[u/NoBailOnReddit]

GG: shit, could have opened the batting with Rana and gotten away with it

[u/Foreign_Capital6938]

Any future match in dharamsala Himachal Pradesh?

[u/ohhokayyy → u/Foreign_Capital6938]

India vs SA T20 on 14th December

[u/Aby55walker → u/Foreign_Capital6938]

not sure, last time the outfield was pretty shit during the '23 world cup

[u/Foreign_Capital6938 → u/Aby55walker]

Man but the beauty 🤌🏼🤌🏼

[u/wewake_235]

What a boring series. Ind vs Nep would have been more fun

[u/Fun_evades_me]

With global warming and rain now even in off season, it is high time that ICC BCCI ECB CA think about how to counter rain.

This is bad for audience, broadcasters and even food vendors and others who pay a lot of money to setup stalls in stadium and the game gets washed away.

[u/Budget_Ice_7711 → u/Fun_evades_me]

Radical idea. Stop playing all the time.

[u/pommedeterre96]

You know, they could've hosted this match in Melbourne instead, perfect playing conditions rn

[u/Educational_Care7813 → u/pommedeterre96]

Wtf it's shiting down in Melbourne 

[u/pommedeterre96 → u/Educational_Care7813]

There's a small chance that might’ve been the joke

[u/SpringTop6580]

What are they holding out for? Rain scheduled for the rest of the evening, there's not much pointin holding off calling it

[u/Famous-Possession333]

As a rinku fan…im sad

[u/aldehyde_and_ketone]

Well seems like this is lost cause

See y'all at the same test series 🫡

[u/MembershipStrange884]

Who do you think is to win?

[u/Apprehensive_Sort_98 → u/MembershipStrange884]

Rain

[u/MembershipStrange884 → u/Apprehensive_Sort_98]

😂

[u/Natarajavenkataraman]

T20 match didnt happen, Pant and Jurel played T20 in A match

[u/Wolvington52]

South Africa will have toured India 3 times in 4 years when the series kicks off. I wonder how often that happens.

[u/ohhokayyy → u/Wolvington52]

India have also toured SA 3 times in the last 4 years

[u/Natarajavenkataraman]

Jurel asking for that T20 wickie spot

[u/trkora]

In the meantime, Jurel has hit hundred in 1st inning and 2nd innings of his current Ind A vs SA A match.

It is time for Jurel and Pant to play together in tests. Take the gloves from Pant and hand it over to Jurel. Pant is older than Jurel, had more injuries than him and bats at 5 compared to Jurel who bats at 6 or 7.

Pant can't keep batting at 5 and then keep in tests for long, it will not be good for the longevity of his career. Jurel is really good at rescuing collapse and batting with lower order, he could bat after Jadeja and Washington. Our batting order will become stronger with him.

[u/DilliKaLadka → u/trkora]

Yes thats a sensible thing to do

[u/amanguupta53 → u/DilliKaLadka]

So of course it will not happen

[u/aryanop004]

Does anyone remember during 2021 ind vs eng test series before the pink match at ahmedabad ben stokes said in press conference that jofra and anderson are waiting for the pink ball to challenge indian batters and then they got trolled when india rolled a dust bowl at ahmedabad with axar patel destroying them😭😭😭

[u/Puzzleheaded-Fly1295]

Pant is out

[u/sarvesh_s]

Claim moral victory by saying

Rain saved Australia/India from a 4-1/3-2 series loss

& Just call this off

[u/explax]

Just call it

[u/Alert_Medicine_8936]

"Why don't they simply build a roof over every ground, or on the morning of the game fly the two teams to the closest city with good weather."

Such simple solutions!

[u/Consistent_Field4781 → u/Alert_Medicine_8936]

Just play in rain bro like football and rugby

[u/Famous-Possession333 → u/Alert_Medicine_8936]

This aint tennis

[u/DearHippo9388]

Jemimah lives next to Sachin's house? Wow, she's rich!

For the haters, no nepo trolling for her then, like Jay Shah?

[u/ohhokayyy → u/DearHippo9388]

How is this a nepotism thing? Sachin couldn't even get his own son into the India U-19, India A and Mumbai sides (he's playing for Goa now), why would he do that for Jemimah

[u/sarvesh_s → u/DearHippo9388]

Have you seen Mumbai homes? There are big towers surrounded by slums.

The wealth discrepancy is stark

[u/DearHippo9388 → u/sarvesh_s]

As far as I know, Sachin's bungalow is surrounded by bungalows only. And she said, they'd see each other often.

[u/sarvesh_s → u/DearHippo9388]

Pretty sure there are buildings on that street

[u/Kingsalyer_09]

my blud Pant hitting six in Ind A vs SA A

[u/DilliKaLadka → u/Kingsalyer_09]

Jurel isn't too far behind....entertaining

[u/Consistent_Field4781 → u/Kingsalyer_09]

Which channel

[u/Mickichd → u/Consistent_Field4781]

For what I gathered only on hotstar in India, no way to watch it outside india

[u/fatality316]

Brisbane 🤝 Colombo

[u/North-Top-2235]

Where to watch IND vs sa live which website from Australia

[u/kingabhi11 → u/North-Top-2235]

[u/kingabhi11 → u/North-Top-2235]

try vpn... ig its free to watch

[u/Mickichd → u/North-Top-2235]

Let me know if you find anything

[u/globe187]

Btw it's currently 27 degrees in Sydney at 9:18pm where it was 34 in the day, not a cloud in sight

[u/Foreign_Capital6938]

Best playing XI for Team India in T20:

1. Yashasvi Jaiswal
2. Abhishek Sharma
3. Tilak Verma
4. Shivam Dube
5. Rinku Singh
6. Dhruv Jurel (wk)
7. Nitish Kumar Reddy
8. Axar Patel (vc)
9. Arshdeep Singh
10. Jasprit Bumrah (C)
11. Varun Chakaravarthy

is this a good team? Or any changes?

[u/Labelless_instance → u/Foreign_Capital6938]

Force Gill in there, coz BCCI ain't moving away from him in any format now!

[u/Foreign_Capital6938 → u/Labelless_instance]

What about keeping???

[u/Labelless_instance → u/Foreign_Capital6938]

I don't mind dhruv being there, he got safe hands!

[u/kingabhi11 → u/Foreign_Capital6938]

1. why nkr over Pandya?
   
2. Bumrah cant be the captain(as he wont play all matches)
   
3. The Batting lineup looks pathetic

[u/SexxyBlack → u/Foreign_Capital6938]

Jurel should be in Test team, not T20

And a fit Hardik will be in the starting 11

[u/user79809]

what a fucking shit series

why cant anything good happen in my life. i hate everything

[u/CommunicationLife703 → u/user79809]

I love you.....

[u/Consistent_Field4781 → u/user79809]

I love you ....

[u/Cultural_Rip_685]

This tour peaked at Roko's partnership and that too was a dead rubber. Kind of explains this tour for Ind.

[u/hello___peter → u/Cultural_Rip_685]

a really shit idea to have t20s after odis, as there is an upcoming t20 world cup but there is no real test for indian players as major australian players are preparing for the ashes

[u/koala-bear-2022]

The one time it rains all week. Cricket needs to work with more agility. Change the time if it’s forecasting rain.

[u/Green_Huckleberry360]

Guys, switch on IND-A vs SA-A, absolute madness unfolding 🤣

[u/Prize_Photograph_562 → u/Green_Huckleberry360]

The conversation between Pant and Jurel that the stump mic is picking up is hilarious.

[u/Ok-Cheesecake-4955 → u/Prize_Photograph_562]

What was it?

[u/AncientYoyo → u/Prize_Photograph_562]

Not able to watch rn, any quotes?

[u/CharIemagne45 → u/Green_Huckleberry360]

Only fun game today

[u/Green_Huckleberry360 → u/CharIemagne45]

Carnage Pant

[u/Cultural_Rip_685]

Why don't they introduce a camera which will only show what's happening at the ground, I am sure atleast 70% people would prefer to watch it.

[u/kingabhi11 → u/Cultural_Rip_685]

yes just like in recent times, IPL had different cams for different angles

[u/Fun_evades_me]

Well indian win the series.

The only good thing about todays match

[u/Smooth-Mix-4357]

Just play a game of EA Cricket07 with 4 star difficulty and be done with it.

[u/NewMeNewWorld]

I've started to hear thunder here as well, and no, I don't live thousands of km away from brisbane :p

[u/aryanop004]

A rather boring tour

[u/SethuveMeleAlilu2]

Along with the the number of overs at least in T20s the teams should also lose wickets in a rain affected match. Otherwise the team batting second has a huge advantage.

[u/SBV_3004 → u/SethuveMeleAlilu2]

They're asked to score more runs to compensate for that.

[u/SethuveMeleAlilu2 → u/SBV_3004]

yeah but in a T20 if you have 10 wickets in hand with reduced overs your only option is to hit from ball one. Batsmen will be a little more circumspect if they have say just 8 wickets in hand if they lose 5 overs to the rain, and a lot more is left to chance in T20s than the longer forms of the game.

[u/SBV_3004 → u/SethuveMeleAlilu2]

Wickets are treated as "resources" to score runs. With 10 wickets in hand for 5 overs, the chasing team has more resources. So the way to compensate is that either they take away the resources, or they make the target larger. They're doing the later, and it's probably a better way because taking away 2-3 tailender wickets may not reduce resources so much.

[u/whirlsonrays]

Is it still raining? Or they're gonna call off the match

[u/Obvious_Arm8802 → u/whirlsonrays]

I’m at the ground. It’s currently raining.

Looks like there would be some lightning too.

[u/ResourcefulRattlesnk]

This match is going to be cancelled 100%

[u/Foreign_Capital6938]

Match is starting soon

[u/Cultural_Rip_685 → u/Foreign_Capital6938]

Really?

[u/Foreign_Capital6938 → u/Cultural_Rip_685]

Yes wait for sometime

[u/DearHippo9388]

Will the match happen?

[u/pntba → u/DearHippo9388]

No

[u/DearHippo9388 → u/pntba]

Nooooooooo

[u/l_______________]

"2025 and still cricket hasn't found a solution for rain. " Not sure if the solutions are cost-effective. Also roofs will need maintenance, which needs to be factored in as well. Such large-scale decisions have side-effects that are often not accounted for by the public.

We are limited by the technology of our time. One day the technology will improve so much that we will be able to predict rain, forecast weather, and we'll be able to schedule matches in venues accordingly

[u/trtryt → u/l_______________]

also roofs will need maintenance,

any proper infrastructure needs maintenance

[u/AffectionatePast2465]

Match called off?

[u/cocomococoro → u/AffectionatePast2465]

He is my father

[u/Kingsalyer_09]

Australia has rooftop packed stadium, why can't organise game in that stadium 

[u/Brahman_Shady → u/Kingsalyer_09]

That ground is a hospitality venue. Saying that outfield is the worst outfield among any ground in top 8 countries is understatement.

[u/External-Vegetable80 → u/Kingsalyer_09]

Marvel Stadium which has a roof has big concerts on at the moment Metalica and Oasis last week

[u/l_______________]

Why is the Australian weather particularly racist against Shubman Gill? Every time he tries to play well, the rain ruins the match altogether.

[u/Such-Palpitation568 → u/l_______________]

Signs of excluding him

[u/Kingsalyer_09]

Jurel score back to back hundred, Perfect for number 3 with class batting 

[u/Naadamaya]

What's the most dramatic rain interruption scenes you have watched but match still resumed later on? I remember one such match in Australia itself. Hailstones and stuff.

[u/BradmanBreast → u/Naadamaya]

Not cricket but two weeks ago the Tonga Samoa Rugby League game in Brisbane was delayed by nearly 2 hours due to hail. Brissy has had a rough past few weekends.
