Yea if they whittle this down to double digits i'll be worried.

Game is far from over. Both these guys can bat. Pitch is still fairly decent and India suck at bowling to tailenders.
Yep. Never count the Aussies out (and never underestimate our inability to knock over the tail either).
Silly. Wait till within 40 then start worrying.

If we were 4 down with this many to get it'd still be 50/50. But with no real batting in the sheds, and with shots like that this innings hasn't got long to go.

Pat Cummins - HS of 50 (currently 14)
Mitch Starc - HS of 99 (currently 16)
Nathan Lyon - HS of 47
Josh Hazelwood - HS of 39

These four could still do this if they bat well. Ridiculous to write them off. Add in India's inability to bowl out lower orders in the past, and the fact that they're a touring side in Australia...

While I'll always support Australia to win I almost don't want them to just to shut you up with your ridiculous Gambhiring.

The next best HK batsman since Mark Chapman

If Chappy can get a gig for NZ, Rath absolutely would.
I'm sure he'd be just as much of a roaring success as Chapman was. But why is he even being mentioned? I looked up his cricinfo profile and he's never played a game in NZ.

yeah, it's a pity they're only chasing 320, I would've loved to have seen the world record broken today.

rumours around the Associates circles that he's planning on heading down there and giving it a crack. He's only 20-21, could easily spend 3-4 years there and find himself playing for the Nat side.

Nothing confirmed tho, mind. Not sure why the OP brought that up in the first place lol

*****, you are a very good poster but you are ruining your reputation here by the over the top gambhiring. Australia still need more than 100 to get and with just bowlers to do it. We can start worrying if Starc and Cummins get to within 50 of the target, but till then India are just 1 wicket away from wrapping it up.

****ing Ashwin better step us and bowl us to victory here. Day 5, four tailenders, and he's already got 40 overs under his belt this innings to warm up.
