yeah its a shame that every indian player from that generation didn't try to emulate kumble more tbh
When else was rahane dropped in the first innings of the last test and who by?
I can only remember the one off travis head at the end of day 2 after he had already tonned up.
One also went through 3rd slip but there was only one slip in so wasnt really a chance?

Dropped on 74 and 104 (nicked through vacant 1st slip on 57)
91.3 Starc to Rahane, no run
Oh, dear! Another dropped chance. Travis Head puts down the chance diving forward from gully. Snorter of a short ball that pings Rahane on the glove as he looks away, it lobs enough for the fielder to run in and get to the ball, but Head grassed it as his elbows touched the turf. How costly will that prove to be?
80.3 Starc to Rahane, 1 run
Dropped at second slip by Steven Smith! This one burst through his hands. Rahane jams his bat down to squeeze a full delivery through point, the ball flew off the thick edge. How costly will that prove to be? The ball wobbled a great deal as it came quickly towards Smith
Thank you ??

It seems likely NZ will beat Pak in their current test, which makes the final two tests of the Aus-India series critical for the WTC final.
Here are the minimum results needed for Aus or India to get into the WTC final above NZ
I'm thinking both sides really need to win 2-1 to make their next series an easier pass to the final.

Aus vs Ind (4) | Aus v SA (3) | Ind vs Eng (4) |
3-1 | 1-2 | 4-0 |
2-1 | 1-0 or 2-1 | 4-0 |
2-2 | 2-1 | 3-1 |
1-2 | 2-0 | 2-0 or 3-1 |
1-3 | 3-0 | 2-2 |

India can afford to go 1-2 or 1-3 and just need a whitewash on Eng.

The game was virtually gone for Aus by then though. He looked way less fidgety and prone to a lapse on the whole; hardly got beaten by the seamers or Lyon, compact in defense, assertive strokeplay. Most composed I've seen him. Even in his overseas heyday, there was something of the maniacal about the early part of his innings. None of that here.

It was a fine innings.
Australia could have lopped at least 100 runs off the Indian total if they'd held their catches but that's not to discredit that knock at all. Tbh any innings that sets a team up for an overseas win is a top knock. But particularly against that attack.

For someone who isn't particularly great against spin, he's generally played Lyon quite decently.

Maybe he blogged about how much he hated Man U and wanted to see them lose every match by 5 goals.

India to not travel to Brisbane if there's hard quarantine: BCCI to CA
"It is too taxing for the boys, asking them to travel to Brisbane and be in the jail for another five days"
www.espncricinfo.com
So it's official. The BCCI do not want to send the team to Brisbane if they have to go into quarantine.

Whatever it takes!!!
I think I said my piece in the match thread. We have known this will be the situation for a while now and it is absolutely stupid of the BCCI to raise this issue at this late juncture. I am hearing issues with 3 day lockdown etc in Brisbane, so it is quite possible that the test is moved out anyways due to other circumstances but it is really horrible here from BCCI. If the situation in Brisbane is better, CA should not entertain this last minute nosnense from BCCI.
Either make the complaint as soon as everyone realized what the rules were gonna be or suck it up and play.
Still think it is probably just an appeasement of the team's concerns and once CA responds that the conditions will be same as Sydney, they will accept. At least, I hope they do.

I think the Queensland Government is being stubborn here too, btw. The only guys who have acted sensibly have been CA and its so unfair that they are the ones with everything to lose here. Hopefully saner heads in the BCCI and the team prevail.
EDIT: changed the word to stubborn from stupid. Calling it stupid was too harsh.
