    *Official* Australia in India 2023

    Australia need 300 in this first innings to be "well ahead". They need to get to at least 250 minimum because India bat 9 deep. Even if Australia is set 60 or 70 to win it could be a defendable total.

    Who would've fought Kuhnemann would outbowl Jadeja? Kuhnemann, 9 overs, 5/16 Jadeja 9 overs, 1/38

    *Official* Australia in India 2023

    Small sample size at home. Pant's played 8 Tests in India out of 33 in 4 years.

    *Official* Australia in India 2023

    You honestly think he's scoring a double ton against Murali on a pitch like this? Don't get me wrong Sehwag would still average ~40 on these pitches. He just wouldn't be the same colossus he was in the 2000s.

    Is succeeding and consistently dominating the same thing?

    *Official* Australia in India 2023

    It's crazy that some posters think Sehwag would be consistently dominating (averaging mid 50s and striking at 82) on these pitches the same way he did during the 2000s.

    Relax. India's two best batsmen have yet to bat.

    Mathew Hayden vs Virender Sehwag

    Yeah and that's one innings. You have that plus his 155 vs. Australia. After that there's plenty of evidence of Sehwag failing in the second innings against lesser bowlers then Murali and Warne when the pitch is tougher for batting. Brian Lara hit 277 in Sydney (plus 182 and 226 in Adelaide)...

    Mathew Hayden vs Virender Sehwag

    Sehwag averaged 54 in easier home conditions. He also averaged only 30 in the second innings when it was a bit tougher to bat like it is in the first innings in modern Indian conditions with DRS. Sharma is more technically apt for tougher pitches then Sehwag is. Sehwag definitely way better on...

    Mathew Hayden vs Virender Sehwag

    If both were playing in today's era Hayden would still average 50 because Australian wickets are still mostly flat. Labuchagne's last few years have been similar to Hayden 2001-04. Both put up huge numbers at home. Sehwag probably wouldn't be opening. The lack of opportunity to make huge...

    Will James Anderson break Murali's 800 wicket record?

    Casual fans could easily see it as a point in their favour considering how close of a comparison it is between Warne and Muralidaran. How they overtook each other during their careers for leading wicket taker. Most cricket fans aren't die-hard statsguru analysts. The other comparisons aren't as...

    Will James Anderson break Murali's 800 wicket record?

    You wouldn't be gutted if Murali lost the record? It wouldn't only deprive Sri Lanka of their one major leading statistical achievement in Test cricket but it could also take some long term sting out of the "Murali >Warne" viewpoint in retrospect.

    Will James Anderson break Murali's 800 wicket record?

    Currently 116 wickets away. Wickets around world cricket the most bowler/pace friendly they've been in decades. A lot of current batsmen perhaps a little less technically and mentally apt for Test cricket because of the innovation of Twenty20 cricket. Tom Brady played until he was in his mid...
