Excellent first hour by the Aussies and useful opening partnership of 50+
But now it's all gone pear-shaped...
1/69
2/79
3/86
Both openers an Katich are gornnnnnnnnnnnnnn!
Boof and Marto currently occupying the crease.
How exciting is this Series?
IMO the indians had the 2nd test in their grasp but couldnt quite grab on!

The huge down pour didnt help the Indians, they had us bent over and were ready to stick it up us, until the rain dance Gilly was doing paid off! :D

What that tells me is not so much that we're collapsing, but that we're not capitalising on starts. Not many naughts, but too many <30 partnerships.
