Surely we won't bat for a draw? 1-0 is no different to 2-0, you have to go for it. 380 in a day is very tough but it's not impossible. It's not even 4 an over.

Especially when we bat all the way through pretty much, need to wrap this up now and get a quick 30 or 40 tonight, would help immensely.

Yeah, look at the lower order. All can go really hard. Watson, Haddin and White can all put the ball away.

They have to try and chase this score.

Stopped watching the game on TV out of disgust, but is Khan' catch by Haddin as good as cricinfo is making it out to be?

79.2 Krejza to Khan, OUT, Krejza's "crazy" debut continues.Zaheer went for the sweep, gloved it behind, haddin got his left hand out and tapped the ball to the off side, swung around, took a step and flung himself to take the catch. Super effort. And the drama continues.

Should have caught it easily enough, but then fumbled so had to be dramatic.

I reckon Ponting shouldn't have worried about the over rate, I mean if he bowled Watson and Krejza straight after tea, they could've been cleaned up early. Even though Ponting would cop a suspension, isn't it worth it for a potential test win like this?

What about a chance to declare by Dhoni and give Australia a few overs to face before stumps, it is something they wouldn't want. I would be tempted.
