***Official*** India in Australia 2014-5

I only claimed that he was the GOAT chaser.. not the GOAT test chaser since it's really not something people talk about.. Graeme Smith bats well in 4th innings chases but he's an opener who's usually not there at the end soaking pressure so it's different..

was there till the end in 3 of the 4 fourth innings hundreds. the one in he got out, SA were chasing 400+

 

[OverratedSanity]

Looked close.

 

[morgieb]

Urgh that looks out.

 

[Spark]

nah that is absurd.

 

[Antihippy]

Really?

 

[Spark]

seriously what deck does erasmus think he's umpiring on? perth?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yeah that's plumb. The **** are you doing Virat. Bad shot.

And now Vijay. Not liking the approach after tea. Just ay normally ffs.

 

[slippy888]

erasmus what is he doing

 

[dognutz]

lyon has bowled way too straight today

so straight that he should have had first lbw just then

 

[Antihippy]

Maybe the laws should be amended that spinners can't get lbws.

 

[dfrinku]

****, I think even hawk eye was being generous there. Didn't look like it was going all that high side on.

yeah i thought it was middle of middle stuff live

I agree the draw chance seems too low, it should figure out the overs left properly but the rain on the 2nd day might've messed it up a bit tbf.

Yes just checked - it was assuming more overs left because of the 2nd day rain.. fixed it - new odds:

Draw 100%
Ind 0%
Aus 0%

 

[slippy888]

erasmus forget the lbw law

 

[dognutz]

Yeah, they're pretty poor. One of the things that annoys me is a side can do what SA did last year and not show up because they didn't "complete" the chase. Should be a list of highest 4th innings scores IMO.

agreed. What about all the times a team scores say 300-350 to win and only loses 2-3 wickets doing so. It doesn't get a mention because it's not record breaking but they may well have gone on to 500 - just didn't need to

Aus 0%

Lol, slightly different now

 

[Teja.]

Got wrecked friday night and the alarm failed. What a score to wake up to.

If Kohli wins this for India, I'll have a Kohli idol in my house to worship. Will be seriously historic.

 

[Antihippy]

I really hope no one use this as a case for Lyon can't bowl 4th because **** me how unlucky can a bloke get?

 

[Zinzan]

Lovely stroke that !

 

[dfrinku]

Does the square leg umpire have any input into an LBW decision?
