***Official Australia in India***

[Goughy]

I seem to agree with most here. I think India will win easily.

 

[Precambrian]

Chappeli and mohinder amarnath saying its advantage india

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

India overwhelming favourites.

Unless people here are joking about Australia winning the game from here, i personally find the thought of Australia chasing down 382 runs on a final day of the game pretty laughable.

If anything if the Aussies go for these runs India might very easily win this test...

 

[inbox24]

yeah...I can sense an anti-climax, and Australia get bundled for 150, thanks to a quick 60 by Lee or something like that

sure hope that doesn't happen. Instead Hayden should get a big double ton, with the Indian spinners ripping out the Aussie middle order until Krejza walks in and blocks out a century to win the game on the last ball.

Epic drama, you know you want it.

 

[bagapath]

Australia only once scored above 370 in fourth innings to win a match, way back in 1948. They had a certain Braddles at no. 3 to take the team to the target of 404.

They have scored over 370 on three occasions. once they lost; twice they drew.

 

[IndGunner]

Krezja conceding the most runs on debut ever. 358 next highest 282. 3rd most wickets on debut ever with 12.

2nd most runs conceded in a match ever, behind 374. Crazzzzzzy.

Most runs conceeded in india as well i think

 

[Alysum]

don't even think about the aussies chasing a huge target on a 5th day in India...especially if they keep bowling wide off

 

[duffer]

Ponting to ton up, Australia to win with 2 wickets and 15 minutes to spare.

Watch an Indian slowdown if they even remotely look like getting there.

 

[Johnners]

Mike Coward suggestion the only other possible "twist" to that hour is that it was a decision made by not only Ponting, but the coach, on tour selectors etc.

Seems highly unlikely though, and even if it were true, doesn't make it any less disgraceful.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Haydossss. Make a quick 60-odd tonight.

 

[IndGunner]

I fear Hayden. maybe defensive fields

 

[Precambrian]

at the field settings.

 

[IndGunner]

don't even think about the aussies chasing a huge target on a 5th day in India...especially if they keep bowling wide off

I'd do it just to spite ponting. If the Aussies get a sniff. DO it

 

[Precambrian]

Katich slashes hard.

 

[Hoggy31]

Get there tonight.

 

[duffer]

Wow, rubbish over there.

 

[pup11]

More overs like these please!!

 

[irfan]

13 runs of the first over

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

 

[Precambrian]

Zaheer screws up the opening over. 13 off it!! Extremely valuable! Ala WC 2003 Final.
