Surely not right?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Just hope we get to tea

I won’t belive till we are 20 short

 

[Browney2006]

So all up we're going to get surprisingly close to the #1 test team

India have been flogged by England and South Africa. They are the number 1 test team in the sub continent they are about Sri Lankan quality outside of it. Nothing about losing to India in Australia should be honourable.

 

[RW]

If our batting improves 10-20%, this could actually be a pretty good series.

 

[Jimmy#17]

Lyon and Cummins to open in the next test?

 

[Dayan Warna]

Well this team has some fight in it.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

We will get to about 280 and lose both wickets in like 3 balls

if we're lucky

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

We should open our batting in Perth with out bowlers.

We always open the batting without bowlers though

This guy follows cricket

 

[RW]

India could be starting to tire after bowling 107 overs (the longest innings of the match), the run rate has crept up to 2.36.

 

[Westend]

MOM currently batting ...............hope so

 

[mouncey2franklin]

We should open our batting in Perth with out bowlers.

On a bouncy Perth wicket they will still get to face the first new ball.

I’d be getting along if I lived in Adelaide. Crowd might build a bit if still 8 down at tea.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Cummins has been ultra impressive

 

[frankrizzo]

Yeah its frustrating he does have a good technique for a number 11

He just tries to smash everything outside offstump, sometimes he gets a few fours but often he just gets the early edge.

He might smash 16 or edge third ball but he won't last long.

Might be a few taking a “late lunch”

1. Australian conditions suit India better than SA and England
2. Adelaide was chosen as the 1st test location because it suits India best
3. Test is a day match to suit India, rather than the day/night test Australia wanted
4. Australia is without our best 2 bats

This is India's best chance to get that away series win to legitimise their No.1 claim.

 

[Jimmy#17]

Cummins has been ultra impressive

Looked good in the first innings until he left a straight one.

 

[gtrxuone]

This is turning out to be a good start for Channel 7 and Foxtel.Such a tight first test.

 

[frankrizzo]

Cummins has been ultra impressive

He would be a great number 8 to back up a strong middle order, can just bat for 20 overs and let the set batsman do his job.
