I told my sons if they did their homework they could watch.

My son actually said as they took the new ball, 'Dad...I think they might get a wicket'. I'm jingle jangles now.

Oh you blokes of little faith....this was always on the cards with an early breakthrough. Ashwin and below have done absolutely nothing this tour. Hopefully that trend continues for two more quick ones

It's been great bowling, but it will take an immense effort to get these runs - the variable bounce on this pitch is crazy.

Warner is the key in this chase, if he cracks a handy start the 180 odd will very suddenly become 120

Get him right away and it will become a war of attrition and India will be seeking any momentum they can

50/50 game. Improved Aussie batting show this tour makes me lean ever so slightly towards Australia

If we get them out by lunch, chasing 200 at worst...with 5 sessions, we have to get 40 runs a session.

20 runs an hour.

I know it's simplistic, but sometimes the slow 'n' steady method works wonders.

Anyway...we'll see.

Momentum has us way in front IMO. We need to deny India momentum both with this last wicket and our top order. It's gonna be a tough thing to keep hold of

A bit hard to really say I guess...given the nature of this pitch. One big spell puts India way in front.

Yep. Not on board with people saying Warner should look to dominate. The key is grinding them out of the game from here. Deny them wickets, rotate the strike. Runs will come
