***Official*** Australia in India 2017

[GotSpin]

So good that ishant still plays

 

[Zinzan]

Some hook shot that & some knock. Superb. 270 is on.

 

[Midwinter]

That innings didnt tell us anything we didn't already know about Australia's batting line up.

The attempts to add batting with MMarsh and Wade didnt work.

We'll see what happens in the second innings.

 

[honestbharani]

If India dont have to bat today, it might still work out well for us.

 

[mr_mister]

that's Starcs 9th test fifty. He really is a good bat

 

[Shri]

Partnership: 46

Starc - 45

Never take things for granted..

Too strong for this small ground.

Still India will get a decent lead but maybe in the next innings Aus will attack a lot more after watching Starc, which could go either way.. back-fire or get Aus a lot of runs

 

[mr_mister]

i like how the constant stream of spinners allows for 90+ overs to be bowled for the day

 

[indiaholic]

If Ashwin is carrying an injury, then it must be so tough to bowl 33 overs in a day.

 

[Gnske]

Nice to see a relattively weaker tail after the England series

Nice

 

[Midwinter]

Hazlewood learning from his partnership with Stoinis, let his partner score the runs

 

[centurymaker]

Starc has shown that pitch is still pretty decent. Far from a minefield or anything.

 

[Zinzan]

Fascinating day, Australia's start, India's middle & Australia's end.

 

[Starfighter]

Now that things have calmed down may I bring some reminders from earlier...

Australia running away with it now. Shudder to think what Smith will inflict on us.

Definitely getting concerned now. Very good batting from these two. And Smith and Smarsh still to come.

At the moment, it looks a bit of a road. And the pitch whiners have gone quiet.

Good start by Australia. Yes, they have done all things right. I won't be surprised if Australia win this match.

...yeah right.

 

[Shri]

Nice

9-11 have contributed 1 run. Its all been Starc.

 

[cnerd123]

Really expensive day for Jadeja by his standards

 

[91Jmay]

Difficult pitch? Vital 10th wicket runs, Starc fulfilling his promise with the bat. Could make a run for Test MVP type player if he keeps it up with his bowling improvements.

Starc's 99 also came in India against India. Mohali, 2013.
