No ones commentating, I'm just sitting here waiting for someone to start speaking lol

If you really want the link its cricketweb is on Mixlr. Mixlr is a simple way to share live audio ...

I could probably try. But I'm watching masterchef on the split screen and doubt anyone else gives a flying **** about that.

1st Test: Australia v India at Adelaide, Dec 9-13, 2014 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo

That's the exception rather than the rule, but it takes a hell of an effort to score 4 an over for three sessions.

Exactly...and add to that a 5th day pitch (even if it has stayed together).

 

[GIMH]

You have to be joking right? Nothing under 400 with just 80 overs remaining in the day?

Eh I'm not saying we should set 400. People were saying declare overnight and ****. Nobody does that at Lords with 300 on the board.

Bottom line, current score isn't dangling a carrot its chase-able. We absolutely should not make ourselves favourites to lose just to entertain. A good result is the primary objective.

...just tell me when Warne is off

That Adelaide pitch broke up a lot more than any Lords pitch ever has.

Scoring rate has been 4/over most of the match

I'm not so sure what you mean by posting that link?

Anyway, that declaration looked to become rather awkward until Vijay got out.

What's the highest successful 4th innings chase here?

Why throw away a match you have battled so hard to save since the opening hour of it?

This is a flat track, no point gifting you an easy target.

It's an example of a case where you can set a 3 session 4rpo declaration and win because the batting side don't shut up shop.

What's the highest successful 4th innings chase here?

344-1

 

[Riggins]

Sheesh Broad is a weak ****.

 

[Howe_zat]

What's the highest successful 4th innings chase here?

344/1 in 66 overs.

 

[Flem274*]

on what planet is 333 an easy fourth innings chase? this isn't eden park guys

 

[dermo]

i assume southee was just giving broad his commiserations as no new zealand cricketer has ever sledged or given anyone a send off

 

[Cabinet96]

I'd probably want to give them over 5 an over. Should be able to do it in 4 or 5 overs.

Agreed.
