That’s another 10+ks on what Starc is bowling now and a whole different world so doesn’t matter if he only swung it one way

That Starc over felt like a pivotal one. Australia have been very disciplined post-Tea but India have held firm and Oz mentally wilted that over.

Whatever it takes!!!
An interesting thing to consider is Bumrah's decsision to bat first here. I think a lot of us agree Australia batted poorly yesterday and had they seen through the day 3 or 4 down, they could well have taken toll of the relatively benign and very good batting conditions today.

Given that fact, I really wonder if it was, in fact, a good decision to bowl first.

With hindsight, you could argue Aus bowled India out too quickly. If they’d bowled them out for 250 in 90 overs they may well have been in a stronger position.

But this pitch will break up, signs of uneven bounce already. India win this easy.

A fifty for Rahul as well as Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma might have to stay home in India, no place for him in this team, he would be carrying the drinks.

Lol, what the hell is up with Rahul's profile photo. Looks like he's 15 minutes into a **** that won't quit.

First time I’ve heard him, who thought Warner was a good fit for commentary???

I'm going to go against the grain and say that I think he's been better than I expected.

He's rough as **** to listen to (and I imagine would be even rougher for non-Australians), but he does seem a little bit more knowledgeable than I suspected and has sometimes said interesting things.

I do feel like he'll get worse though as he moves away from the game.
