***Official*** Australia in India 2017

[Spark]

That really was garbage by Ishant a few minutes back though. Deserves a rocket.

 

[Daemon]

Jadeja's getting mad turn today

 

[morgieb]

Damn.

Least that one turned, I don't think this wicket is as flat as other people say it is.

 

[adub]

Well done Maxi

 

[Compton]

Urgh. Was hoping he'd get himself out advancing down the pitch and trying a switch hit.

 

[indiaholic]

The **** is Wade trying?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Damn.

Least that one turned, I don't think this wicket is as flat as other people say it is.

Been ripping for Jadeja since ball one today. She's a different pitch.

 

[Ausage]

Wade needs to prove he should have been batting above Maxwell here.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

That stat about Smith being the first Australian captain to score two hundreds in India has been getting a lot of play, so I was curious about the most runs for a visiting Australian captain in India in a series, in case it was under threat. Turns out Kim Hughes scored 594 runs in a series with only one century, which was exactly 100, and tons of 50s. So nowhere near.

Smith is second now though.

Wade still hasn't proven he should even be batting above SOK yet

Yeah it's infuriating to watch. I don't mind genuine mistakes as much as just laziness/lack of effort.

76 test veteran folks.

Jadeja today: 4-4-0-1

He's the real spinner, Ashwin is the backup

 

[indiaholic]

Clarke recognizes Jadeja as the true captain. Yusss!

 

[Daemon]

How amazing would it be now for Wade to get out to some random improvised shot that Maxwell plays in ODIs

Hughes was a mad player of spin. Such a good player to watch too.

Made a handy contribution in one of the digs this series didn't he? I can't remember which one though.

 

[Spark]

Wow, surely the fielders should ask for that to be checked?

 

[Tangles]

If this is a Jadeja pitch it's a Sok pitch. Glad India will be batting last.

 

[burr]

I think Smith has got himself a bit bogged down this morning. Important to keep pressure on through runs, not just occupation.

 

[indiaholic]

Will be furious if that carried
