No matter now. India batting tonight ?

Can't use technology if it's wrong. I reckon ball tracker is regularly way off but I really like snicko and hotspot.

The third ump couldn't overturn that, which is fair enough but it grates a bit to miss out on the wicket due to a bad umpiring decision.

India having the home ground advantage has helped today........

How many times does get Head get a start and blow it ? so frustrating when the talent is there

This is a family friendly forum, please focus on the cricket.

What'll we take ? 230+ ?

There's some pretty ordinary techniques getting a bat for Australia these days.

Well who else should be picked?

Pucovski when ready and Warner but the cupboard is pretty bare.

Khawaja has a great local record but doesn't deliver elsewhere plus not the future.

On top of that, as I said earlier, no one wants to push the game along by grafting out some tough runs. The bowling is good but not unplayable. Just like both sides in Adelaide, these guys are just biding time until they get out.

Pat Cummins has looked tighter than a couple of them.

If you're getting bogged down in your crease then you must counter attack, otherwise it's just a matter of time.

The bowling isn't that good. Most of our players get themselves out

 

[ChoppyGun]

As much as we have failed today I can't see India getting any more without Kohli and our bowling is much better than our batting.

 

[Snake_Baker]

34 degrees tomorrow. This pitch will get better.

Someone is sweeping the spinner! Finally!

**** the future. Khawaja and Marsh should be in the squad and probably playing. ‘The future’ will be picked when they’re ready, ie Cam Green making a hundred in the tour game. Those two guys are significantly better batsmen than Burns/Wade/Head.

Wade is a number 6 bat.

Ok then, settle down. I'm happy for Khawaja to play.

 

[remfan101]

Warner
Khawaja
Labuschagne
Smith
Marsh/Wade
Green
Paine
Cummins
Lyon
Starc
Hazelwood

...is a much better team.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Lyon & Cummins are showing the others how to bat.

 

[Snake_Baker]

They will need a minimum of 2 wickets tonight.

 

[ChoppyGun]

People have short memories.

India made their lowest score ever last test.

200 without their best player will be a task

 

[Sillygit]

Mitchell ****ing Starc

 

[Heaps of fun]

Mitchell ******* Starc

Incredible over.

 

[Marstermind]

India have lost their last 18 wickets for 92.
