If we roll the final 7 wickets for less than 75 runs then sure we have a chance

But thats pretty unlikely
Kohli's gone and the rest bar Pujara are rubbish. I can certainly see it happening. Reckon Australia could've had India in much more trouble today with a bit more luck. If some of those bat pads from Lyon stop dropping in no man's land, they could end the innings quick.

Rohit is going to be vital, as ridiculous as that sounds.

Vijay also had a bit of luck early on. He didn't score many but if he had gone in Haze's first spell India would have been in a lot more pressure.

India are well ahead right now. Anyone who doesn't think so is forgetting that at Australia restricted India to 250 they made 235 on days 2 and 3 in reply. It's ridiculous to suggest that they would be able to chase 200+ on days 4 and 5 against the world's second best off spinner.

Admittedly Ashwin is only the second best off spinner in this test, but he's still a quality player.

I mean those Indian fans are also forgetting that Australia lost 1-0 away to a Pakistan side that just got wiped 2-0 by a side that basically doesn't play test cricket.

Our batting lineup consists of:

Makeshift opener who doesn't open for their state because they tried and were terrible at it.
Debutant who our coach described as mediocre.
Decent bat who's brother just got arrested and looks like facing 10 years in jail.
Guy who hasn't reached double figures in 9 months/ innings.
Guy who has a more exploitable batting stance than a porn star
A guy who has feet made of concrete; and
A guy who hasn't hit a century at any level for a decade.

It's the worst batting side Australia has fielded since the last time half the team were banned for touring South Africa.

Fantastic. And now he is close to having a masterclass match winning performance at Adelaide too.

So if Rohit comes in and makes a quick 60, we're forced to carry him for one more Test at least? You never wish a player to fail and I certainly don't tomorrow but god that's a **** situation to have on your hands.
