Lyon turned the ball and Jadeja nicked it. Shows Ashwin would have been quite handy here especially with Australia having so many lefties..

 

Kohli got a Peach.

 

Gill and Pujara didn't know where there off stumps is. Novice mistake.

 

Rohit has been out of form since sometime. Don't know when we will get proper dependable openers.

 

Jaddu was great until misjudged a Lyon ball. Still did his job.

 

Rahane was playing like old Rahane. Each ball on merit. Lucky escape with that no ball.

 

Only if we had Pant and Ashwin playing my hopes for a good score would be intact.

 

Let's see if Bharat and Thakur can support Rahane to avoid follow on atleast.

 

Disappointing day with ball yesterday and with Bat today.

Hopefully he does something in second innings 

 

If there is a second innings. Kohli is so predictable now. He as become another Ganguly.

Relax boys pitch seems to be supporting the batsmen, Only new ball is causing some trouble. Need to keep them under 475-500 & bat well to reach a similar score.

Pitch is not supporting the Indian Batsmen :P

Kohli should still not be fending at a ball like that. Just drop your wrists, you are one of the best batsman in the world.

 

Gill got an unplayable ball. It moved in so much when previous balls pitched at the same spot were going comfortably away from the spot.

 

Just need to keep batting today, atleast till tea. Pitch is still good to bat on, and I don't expect that to change even on days 4 and 5. 

 

Australia won't give follow on. They will want to bat 1½-2 sessions, score 250+ more runs and declare with almost 2 days left.

Umpires way too keen to give out when Australia call for a lbw. Raised the finger thrice and two were umpire's calls and one was an inside edge.

 

Didn't raise the finger at all when we were bowling, and we had a few good shouts and one plumb in front.

Umpire is wrong, pitch is not good for us, we got a peach welcome to 90’s

 

we are a f**ked up batting side from a long long time now, Kohli is not even averaging 30 from so long now, Rohit Sharma has no business to be in this team, rahane got runs but lucky few times. sh*t batting show.

 

wtever we have won is just cos of bowlers and lower order batting

Umpiring is too biased. He didn't even think for a second before raising finger and when India was bowling he was adamant it's not out even after huge appeals. Thankfully Cummins messed up with no balls.

This is what happens when you don't give deserving players who keep performing in domestic chances. Easwaran should be tried at opening. Sarfraz should get a chance at no.5. Both could have played in BGT trophy but selectors are sh*t and bcci only cares about IPL money.

This is huge management fk up. 

The pitch is showing uneven bounce. 5th day, ball will definitely turn.

 

We dint have the balls to win toss and bat first on this pitch.
Ashwin should have played, but that is still okay if we batted first.

This is how we are playing from quite sometime. Top order fks up. 
Pant & lower order will bail us out. Now without Pant we are not getting bailed out. 

 

Bowling plans are all screwed up. Head is so bad against short balls, but we dint bowl short to him.
