BLEE!!!!!!! Gets his man for a second time in an over.

The no-ball thing is unbelievable though.

9 to go. Jaffer has performed poorly in this test as I thought seeing him in the tour game. Didn't think he would be able to make the adjustment so fast.

A factor but that one he flashed at and could have left alone anywhere in the world.

Usually, it is not an excellent delivery which gets your test wicket but a combination of factors like the pressure the bowling team has put, how you have adjusted and so many other factors. For instance, he played on the back foot on this delivery. Would he have done the same had he made the adjustments required in Australia, I doubt.

Nothing sort of shot from Jaffer; especially daft after he'd just had a life too.

Congrats to Gilly on the record tho. Fair effort.

Has anyone else been impressed with Gilly's keeping?

I think he's doing a great job, well done to him for now having the Australia record.

Dravid looking solid but Laxman looks a bit unsure what the ball will do after bouncing.
Lee bowled well today.. and Indian batsman are really finding it difficult to find the pace and immaculate line and length...

Expecting Laxman's wicket before lunch

what the hell is Dravid doing? is he trying to draw the match or something.. i believe the only way a team can defeat aus when they play aggrassive cricket.. Dravid and india is doing the opposite of that..Lee, Clark, Johnson and even Hogg are dominating india by bowling one median after another..

He is just passing his time at the wicket. He doesnt want runs and more so he does nnt want to take risks..

I think Atherton in SA may have an opinion on that:ph34r:

Plenty of time left in the game. No hurry. Johnson, Hogg and Symonds are far from proven test threats - why take too many risks early in your innings against a fresh Lee/Clark?
