5 wickets left, lead by 241.

I feel confident of at least a draw if we get a lead of 350 minimum. Haddin/Johnson/Harris will have to dig deep to get us there. If we captiulate and end up with a lead of <300, Australia will have to bowl very well and contain the Indian batsmen just to be assured of a draw.

That's the exact opposite of what I said. They don't play 1st class cricket on astro turf that's why his point was clearly about 1st class cricket. Geography only matters on real pitches where they're actually different. He isn't a blue bagger in the meaningful sense.

Do you think every ground in Sydney is astro turf pitches or something ?

Ive supported Kholi a lot, but f**cking standing right near the stumps waiting for incoming batsman to get to the crease to sledge him???


If it was the other way around Kholi would be crying to the umpire

Haddin and Marsh just need to be focusing on getting the regular 1s and 2s, rotating the strike, not trying to get bogged down and allow the bowlers to exert pressure on them. This is a crucial period of the match for us.

I dont have a problem with Kholi saying something to Haddin but the time wasting is really annoying. He is holding up the game.

Cmon mate, your swallowing 9's propaganda.

As if this isn't done everywhere, especially by Australia.

Australia is going to win this, in my opinion, the pitch is starting to play.

Ishant is bowling like Dennis Lillee out there

Best chance for us to go to 3-0 up is to be bowled out tonight, india chase 280 odd to win. And we have 10-15 overs at them tonight

Im confident we get 1 or 2 wickets tonight. Then all we need is 1 or 2 tomorrow morning and they shut up shop. This is all relative based on holding onto our catches.

Maybe people will stop trying to dry Hump Kholi...

Especially after the Adelaide test match where he go the hundred in the second innings and threw his wicket and the match away....

Didn't hear ch9s comments, just saw the replay of him waiting at the crease as Haddin turned up to take guard

Might be happening everywhere, hope the aussie haters don't get to upset when we get do it is all :)
