***Official*** Australia in India 2017

[Prince EWS]

There was a weird cringe few weeks where Jono tried to meme someone misspelling Ashwin's name as "Ashwon" and began posting it everywhere.

That was the worst. Decidedly uncute.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Welp. Needed a few more runs tbh. Should've been targetting an innings win.

 

[Shri]

Saha wag.

 

[Spark]

teja this is why you never let shane warne post from your account

 

[indiaholic]

Hmmm.. Now bat carefully?

 

[Teja.]

14/2 since Pujara's wicket. 2 wickets needed in 14 runs. The chase is well on for intent based cricket.

 

[vcs]

Jaddu and Umesh to bop a few

 

[harsh.ag]

This is so lame

 

[silentstriker]

Meh. Not a huge deal if Australia bat for a few overs tonight - might actually work in Indias favor.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Another 50 in around 10 overs would be perfect.

Well India are well ahead so anything could work out. Nevertheless I think getting a big lead and aiming to win by an innings was more likely to result in a win. If/when the set batsmen got out you could still have the tail try and slog a few.

 

[Shri]

Would lol so hard if Jadeja gets like 3 wickets today.

 

[Contra]

Australia were definitely gonna be asked to bat regardless, just that with these wickets it might be sooner than intended. Should play out another 10 overs for as many runs and then have a go at the tired openers.

 

[silentstriker]

Pujara with 400 dot balls out of 525 played. A proper Test innings.

Well more runs are always better but I think having the Aussies bat tonight may in the end result in more wickets and they'd get out sooner than if they started batting tomorrow sometime mid morning or whatever.

Second time an Aussie fielder has tried to superman-punch a catch FFS

Batting tonight would ****ing suck. And boy oh boy did O'Keefe look seriously ginger getting up after that drop eh.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

The fact that there's likely to be a bit of swing with the new ball will help India a lot. Chance of an early breakthrough before the spinners take over.

 

[Top_Cat]

India are 100 ahead, Kohli must surely be at least tossing up a declaration.

He has bowled roughly six million overs tbf.
