The end of the Khawaja vigil, 5 sessions for 180, the next 3 days will show how decent an innings that was.

Surprised it needed DRS, looked very out in real time.

Not too disappointed with that wicket if it's an indication that there's going to be a little more turn tomorrow

Tbf I think the height and turn made the umpire not give it.

Maybe, but if you're hit on the back foot standing square in front of your stumps, there's not a lot of guesswork involved for the umpire. Just seemed like one you'd see more often given than not.

Fantastic knock from Khawaja - superb concentration to bat for that long and put the Aussies in a good position

Not entirely sure what Aus were trying to achieve in that session, they've gone precisely nowhere other than using up time they probably can't afford on this pitch.

Do you consider yourself a keen watcher of the game?

Have people seriously never watched a game on a flat pitch in India before? Aus could bat until lunch tomorrow and still have a good shot at victory, Days 4 and 5 on pitches like these are nothing like Days 1 and 2

It's also not the best Indian lineup to exploit it either. Their batting isn't the same as the one that consistently scored 500+ at home, nor is there a Pant-type that go 100(100) either.

There is just as much chance on a pitch like this that 400 in the first innings is responded to by 600 in the second. I'm watching this at the mo and seeing nothing in it still for the spinners.

In which case why are we even talking about how much time Australia would need to take 20 wickets...?
