*Official* Australia in India 2023

[Pothas]

Those Umesh wickets were so fun.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Just looking the the dismissal times today it's pretty clear getting to the 5 minute mark of your innings is deadly.

 

[Bahnz]

186/4 to 197 all out. Yeesh. Aus need to bring their A game with the ball because I wouldn’t have any confidence in them chasing anything north of 100 in the 4th dig.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Surely these hacks are chastised enough to make 300 second go around

 

[Test fan]

Man Australia tail give India slim chance for comeback.

 

[Test fan]

Match turning point is that no ball otherwise Australia might bundle out around 120

 

[OverratedSanity]

India's top order needs to channel some of that bangalore 2017 energy

 

[Shri]

only walking wickets in the aus top 6 i can see are head and carey. this will be an innings defeat

^

 

[Burgey]

Really need to bowl patiently and not go looking for a wicket every ball. Making India work for every run will be enough on this, the pitch will do it for you if you hit consistently good areas.

 

[Test fan]

Australia did some favour india by seeing off first hour and half .

 

[Anil]

If Aus score 250, India are out of the game tbh. Honestly anything more than 180 from Aus would probably mean an easy Indian defeat.

agree...88 is a really big lead on this pitch and the difference-maker in a low scoring game like this...i can see us folding rapidly in the 2nd dig...

 

[Shri]

if loddu i mean jaddu had not bowled that no ball to marnus we would have been even in the test without being so far behind

 

[duffer]

Surely these hacks are chastised enough to make 300 second go around

Like we're not playing any specialist batters though

 

[Daemon]

Excellent start. 12 rpo, we should be well ahead by lunch.

 

[Burgey]

Plenty of swing for Starc

they have a really thick skin dude...along with the low cricketing skills...

 

[Test fan]

2017 Bangalore test Australia lead were 87 .now is 88

 

[Raz0r6ack]

Not a lot of teams win after losing 6/11.

 

[Burgey]

Not a lot of teams win after making 109

 

[Spark]

Not a lot of teams win after losing 6/11.

Wasn't Brisbane more or less exactly like this?
