Nothing unusual in SRT falling to a debutant, what is unusual is that this is the first wicket in this test to fall in a morning session. Wonder where one can find arcane records like that!

Clearly SRT doesn't send out a positive vibe to the rest of the batsmen for his good innings, hence mediocre batsmen :ph34r:

This could potentially be the best thing for India, result wise.

If Tendulkar stayed in, they would have probably gone for a big lead before stepping up the run rate (because they were playing very slowly considering the cirumstances). By that time, Oz would probably have been able to bat out a draw.

This way, however, India have a good chance to bowl Oz out for a small total, and a comfortable amount of time to easily chase it down.

Chasing down anything is going to be really tough though.
I dont know about that. This wicket seems to be holding up better than the previous test. And they managed to chase down 200-odd runs there (albeit only just). I think anything around 200 again should be pretty easy for the Indians. The harder part though will be bowling Oz out for that amount or less.

How do you know they're trying to win?

Every run India gets now is one less they need in the 4th dig.

Sachin going out was not good for India, whether they're after a result or draw.

George to Dhoni, no run, 98.1 kph, More Brillarious fun. It was the slower bouncer.. the ball climbed up ever so slowly outside the off stump, Dhoni decides to leave it initially before the awesomely slowness of the delivery made him greedy. He suddenly decided to lash out with a cut shot but couldn't connect. Georgy smiles. Dhoni smiles and Watto laughs,
Someone slip the comms guy some Zoloft or what?
