ffs Kohli isn't "one of" the best chasers in the world he's the chasing GOAT and it's not even close..

Bloody hell Warnie. "Marsh should've flicked it up for a 2nd chance". Lol

This isn't Odis....

Also, Dhoni.

This is a test match. Graeme Smith = GOAT

 

[Hurricane]

Agreed, I recall NZ trying to do the same against McGrath when they had that drawn series.

I felt that England should have executed that strategy in the Ashes debacle.

He still would have carved up but not by quite as much.

 

[dermo]

**** that would've been a screamer

usually i would laugh at the same point being made three times in a minute but here i feel it's necessary

 

[Jono]

That'll be 4 thanks.

TPC copping it in the nut right now.

Also, Dhoni.

Dhoni is probably #2 but when it comes to chasing there's no one close.. This is as close to an ODI as it can get atm.

 

[Hurricane]

200 up -

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Goddamn that cut was awesome.

 

[viriya]

Graeme Smith = GOAT

Good point. But he's usually not there at the end.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Oh yeah, maybe wait until Johnson bowls out his 10 then go for it.

 

[Contra]

Smith's overs can be game breaking either way, a wicket would be lovely. but if they can take runs off him and then play out Johnson would be ideal.

 

[Spark]

Dhoni is probably #2 but when it comes to chasing there's no one close.. This is as much as close to an ODI as it can get atm.

except it's not remotely close to an ODI because there are no fielding restrictions nor over restrictions.

so can we stop this particular brand of pointlessness

Most benign fifth day pitch I can remember - India big chance

this isn't remotely as flat as the deck two years back

I think its pretty snobbish to think that Kohli's proven ability to chase in an ODI is irrelevant to what the scenario will be for the last session. Its not directly analogous but his proven temperament and ability to run well between the wickets etc. is relevant. It is still cricket ffs.

Yes, but does that make him the GOAT test chaser?
