Ffs.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

It would be good to get Ugly and his mate out before stumps.

 

[8Ball]

How many catches has Warner dropped this series..

 

[some11]

Right. 188 for the trophy.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

All over. 188 runs to win.

I'd open with Levers, get it over with.

 

[undertaker]

What's going on here?

This 10th wicket partnership has batted nearly 10 overs already.

Indicates that the pitch is not a minefield.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

188 it is.

Fingers crossed.

 

[undertaker]

FINALLY!

Hopefully the Aussies will have a good hard look at themselves in the lunch break as to how they allowed that partnership to continue for as long as it did.

Probably should have got another 10-15 runs there India. But that said, Ishant is a bunny...so it was was it was.

Run chase is now exciting.

 

[Bazal]

Well one thing is certain regardless of the result. This has been an awesome Test match

 

[Meapro Ham]

This run chase could be anything. Who knows what'll happen. We probably need a bit of luck. If India take all their chances they probably win.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Hazelgood shows that he's the number one fast bowling dude in the game. 6/66 is tremendous, the guy is really, really tremendous.

Yadav could be tricky on this pitch he's bowled well in the 67 tests have played in their home season.

 

[undertaker]

Lyon wicketless in the 2nd innings.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

FINALLY!

Why? It's not like they added 50 runs, if anything those two had the opportunity to score more runs but just fart arsed around for ten overs.

Every run counts.

Australia learnt that the hard way when in the 2005 Edgbaston test Simon Jones survived a plumb LBW from Brett Lee (Billy Bowden was umpire).


England scored 2 more runs. Final result? Australia lost by 2 runs.

Thanks for the history lesson.

Every run counts works both ways. India could have picked up 15 - 20 extra runs which may pay against them in the end.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

My gut tells me Australia will be all out for 98.

Jaded 6-7 with, Ashwin 3-4 wickets.

Open bowling with spinners.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

This gonna be stressful for the emotional Haynetrain,expect anyone who gets dismissed to be called a useless plodder and anyone who potentially scores the winning runs to be deemed the best since Wally Hammond

 

[Meapro Ham]

Yes. A gut wrencher coming up. I've just broken my self imposed booze ban. No way I can get through this without alcohol
