Hanscome coming back to the field. Attack is great when it comes off, but you put your side under pressure when it doesn't.

The bloke is not suited to these conditions. Can see us getting maybe a 20-30 run lead here and having Lyon and Renshaw's hard work being for nothing

Levers to the rescue!!!!

I want a 50 from him, not because it will keep him in team until 2056 but because if he scores that we'll be well placed.

Australia need to overcome the deficit before they can start to accelerate the run-rate, preferably before half-way through the final session. They can't afford to lose another wicket before getting to 189.

Need to get to at least 300 to put pressure on India, 350 would be more ideal. Don't want to be chasing too much on the final innings on this pitch, especially as it starts to deteriorate.

With the loss of Handscombe's wicket, we'll be lucky to get to 300. Don't have much confidence in M Marsh. Need Wade and Starc to chip in with some handy runs

2 wickets lost for the sake of being "aggressive." Handscomb's just before tea.. Sometimes you just gotta read the conditions and match state...

We lost 2 wickets trying to up it too quickly. The way Renshaw batted prior to him getting out and sMarsh is going is the way to play on this strip.
