ha-ha you f**king little spastic.. i'm not sure I can be happy for two Victorians if little Wadey manages to close his eyes and somehow get some runs..

I don't like that sweep shot Wade tries to do way outside of off-stump. Too high risk and chance of getting an edge or mistiming it to a fielder

Well played Show, it's now the tough little nuggets time to shine.

You know what they say about polishing nuggets....

On the flipside, the ball he got out to ripped quite a bit. Signs that the pitch is already starting to go.

Very important to make what we can while it's good but I still think by this time tomorrow (or maybe the second session) this will be a totally different wicket

Which is why Australia need to try to bat for at least another 40-50 overs minimum and score runs whilst batting conditions are still good

Yep, if we can, absolutely. Another hundred runs would be absolute gold.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Lol, fielding boys.

 

[Bazal]

Outstanding in the field

 

[undertaker]

shocking mix-up in the field and conceding a boundary. You wouldn't be happy as the fielding captain to see that.

 

[undertaker]

If the wicketkeeper thought he caught it, why didn't the captain use DRS?

He didn't catch it. The shit camera angles are deceptive.

3rd world country.

Crucial the tail gets some runs around Smithy. Need over 450 here.

Brilliant hundred from Maxwell, can't complain about him getting out too much, but geez India were starting to look ragged...

Without Kohli in the field, India look very docile and placid, and lack that aggression they had in the first 2 tests. Whilst Australia have got the upper hand in this current situation, they must go on with it and put India to the sword. They can't afford to have another batting collapse like they did in both innings at Bangalore.

Rahane has had no idea what to do with field placements and bowling changes, and is almost hoping Australia throws their wickets away. Also, several blunders occurring with their fielders, such as that terrible mix-up just before drinks break and also the botched run-out attempt with Sharma not backing up behind the stumps.

3rd world country.

Yeah, nah.

 

[Basil Brush]

Yeah, nah.

Yeah nah indeed.

You see the correct replay???

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Nothing wrong with the coverage.

 

[Basil Brush]

Nothing wrong with the coverage.

Except everyone said he was caught, probably including yourself.

Shit cameras and shit commentators.

No need for a replay as the keeper said it fell short. They then showed a front on slo mo replay which confirmed it.

The camera coverage is as good as anything around the world.

You're looking for faults that aren't there.

 

[undertaker]

beauuuuuuuuuuuuutiful cover drive from Wade.

 

[8Ball]

Australia not aggressive enough again according to commentators lol

 

[2 weeks]

Wade >>>>>>>> Saha
