Hit outside the line, rough to be giving that.

These are the type of situations which will determine whether Rahane will be a great of the game or merely a very good batsman who can play great innings. We already know he can score the 97/230 and 111/250 knocks in tough situations v. good attacks but you also need to kick on from 55* when the team is at 286/4 and do your best to set up a big total first up.

What do people think about the potential of Smith's leg spin? IIRC, when he was first selected the buzz on CW was that he had a couple of great FC bowling performances which indicated very definite potential in the department and is FC average was misleading. Obviously I agree his priorities have shifted.

He didn't play his natural game at Brisbane.. should've looked to score instead of defend and Ind would've prob pulled it off.

Ganguly's was '***ier' and also set the tone for India to bat well for the rest of the series but Vijay's is better in terms of actual technical/situational merit IMO.

Channel 9 showed it, and the pitch map showed it hitting him slightly outside the line. Lucky for India you weren't the ump

I reckon it's getting lesser as his batting career goes on. He's rightly going to be the big guy in the middle order when Clarke goes so any bowling he does is a bonus, but because he'll neglect it his potential will decrease over time.

Lol @ Gavaskar calling Ashwin a nightwatchman.

Never rated his bowling tbh.

He definitely should have played earlier but I sorta like how this timing allowed him to mini-Bradman Indian FC cricket for a couple of years and gave him the hardest possible induction into test cricket, 4 away series against quality pace outside the sub-continent and how he has coped beautifully. Hope he does cash in against **** bowling attacks at home too though.

I feel like Indians underrate Ashwin the batsman.
