Australia v India

NTA

An hour to go would have left India a target well under 300 with a full day + 10 overs. Easy get

That shows the limits of snicko

Snicko isn't perfect

But it is racist 😜

Snicko isn't perfect, looked like ball deflected. Shows perhaps that Snicko shouldn't be used??

It was used perfectly there. It's part of the process not the be all and end all. Doesn't mean you should get rid of it

Baz regularly made me shit my pants! He usually got it right.

Yep, whet I meant is when they use snicko to decide whether a batsman is out LBW. I not keen on all tech maybe, but it shows it still not perfect etc.

Now here is a trap that we've fallen into before: Thinking we could just use our paceman to get tail enders out.

Needs to be managed carefully, although Cricinfo says the ball is starting to swing reverse

@NTA Lyon back on. Good move.

Also need to make sure Starc and Cummins have gas in the tank when they get the new ball.

Sundar can probably handle Lyon. Need to get him at the bowlers

Not at all the way the new ball has been moving and Aus has some great exponents who could use it twice if necessary.

On top of that 290 only chased once I believe on same ground

Lastly Ind are series defenders, Aus need to win it

Great camera work to see the edge

Who gets man of the match if Aus wins? Cummins?

Gotta be Bumrah

It definitely ISN'T Marsh

Chris B.

Pretty doubtful that Washington, Bumrah and Siraj are going to survive a dozen overs with the new ball.

Man - it is fuckwitted of Pant to be caught in the deep when they're playing for the draw.

Mark Waugh was highly critical of his first innings shot - he'll be scathing of this one. I agree with Mark.

Can't see the game due to fucking rain fade!

KiwiMurph

Excellent test match

That was a tough ball to get for any batsmen let alone a number 11. It just did not bounce
