Cummings not ready yet?
Hilfy tore through South Australia the other day. Cummins needs to put together some domestic form before he risks his body again, and Patto is ahead of him should he come right soon.

Hilf is only 31. I was against giving him a go in 2012 again, but he proved that he can still do it.

I am calling it. India will win this Test. We should of batted on for 30 more runs this morning. The wicket is easy too bat on against the fast bowlers. They probably should of got another 50 last night except for the terribly slow batting from Rodgers and especially Watson!!
I'm more worried about any potential phsycological effects if we lose today. I've rarely see teams win from the position India were at the start of today. We could lose the whole series just by losing this one game. Thankfully its a worthless series and not the world cup.

Why the fk did they take siddle off after 2 good overs, smith could bring the run rate down signicantly.
I guess they're hoping batsman get into an attacking mindset then make a stupid decision. Smith does bowl some good balls

Lyon bowled really well but couldn't get the job done unfortunately. Still feel he doesn't have a variation ball to make him really dangerous. A couple of balls that straightened down the line might have gotten him an LBW or bowled, instead of dot balls. That's the difference between being a good bowler and a bowler that helps win matches.
