***Official*** Australia in India 2012/13

Yea, that's a good LBW. I think Cowan thought he was being given out caught?

 

[Son Of Coco]

Spewing he didn't get more of a bowl tbh.

hugging the bowl aws

He'd be just about ready to explode at the crease. I wouldn't be surprised if he ****s all over the Indians this innings.

Pretty sure that everyone other than Ashwin was appealing for the catch

 

[Mr_Ronan]

Geez he had a very big stride in though...the ball still had a long way to travel. Given the number of LBW let offs India got yesterday you'd hope we'd at least get the benefit of the doubt occasionally

Watch the replay. I thought that first, but on slowmo you can see everyone behind the wicket going up well before the ball was caught.

Nah Dhoni was appealing for lbw

Good decision

 

[Cevno]

I actually don't mind this batting effort from Cowan and Warner - the way Cowan is doing his best to get LBW out of the equation and Warner being intelligent enough to take low-risk options most of the time. Jammy, but effective at the moment.

Given the nature of the pitch, the bowlers and (more importantly) their relative skill against spin, they're doing quite well.

Nice timing.

**** me dead Hughes

Wow, that is really unplayable.

 

[uvelocity]

aussies are ****ed here on debut

 

[Spikey]

hahaha what the ****

 

[social]

That's ridiculous

Jadeja puts absolutely nothing on the ball and it would've gone through at head height

 

[Dan]

Nice timing.

Better if I never post in match threads again. Worst luck imaginable.

 

[silentstriker]

It seems like a totally different pitch to this morning...

 

[Mr_Ronan]

That was unplayable. This pitch is a disgrace...how are batsmen meant to play on this???

Rewind 40 overs ago.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Line 'em up...

 

[benchmark00]

Something about the pitch solely getting a wicket on day four which doesn't sit well with me, but to be fair Australia should have batted better/bowled better.

0-4/0-4 will be forgotten because winning in their own conditions is more important though

The way Dhoni and Kumar were playing?
