Somehow knew Smith would be left stranded by the tail - marvellous captain's innings, again.

I'm not watching so I am hoping the tail's difficulty reflects a pitch getting trickier.
 
What a way for Smith to answer everything that went on in the second test, there is no bigger statement than 170 odd not out, guy is a freak

And i do believe in karma and looks like Kholi got his this test like someone said.

Maxwell also fantastic to get a century in India, could be the making of his test career.

3 days left and lndian batsmen will strive for their usual individual glory. Take 'em another day to make 300 + ( if they don't lose wickets ) and the draw is a fait-accompli.
Or they bat for two days, get 300 in front and knock us over on the last day for 150-odd.

751 ? Big ask. Never know though. What l love about them is they never think team first in these situations. Mindset is always " how can l improve my average for the record books ? "

Couple of early wickets and ? Kholi at death's door with his shoulder strain will see them crumble.
 
I think this pitch will deteriorate on day four and five.

If we can knock them off for around 300-350 a score of 250 plus on day five would be a hard ask. I would never call a Test that hasn't as yet seen the half way point. We are balls deep into this one.

India have got a hell of a home record for a reason Hojuman. They play some excellent cricket. You guys were all over them the last test and they came back and bit you so don't think they'll be easy beats

True. Kholi their lightning rod though. Wonder if he can bat for any length of time. Can see Lyon, O'Keeffe, Maxwell even Smith sending down a few overs. Hazelwood metronome like. Take 2 wickets l think and doubt creeps in.
 
Patto & Tremain running riot at the Gabba.

Looks like 2nd, 3rd & 4th on the Shield table could all lose this weekend in the battle of who falls into the Shield final.
