Smith goes...

Well, cometh the hour cometh the man...

Mitch Marsh - this is your Stephen Donald moment!

[Chris B.]

Ha, sucked in India...Mitch drags out the last review with an umpires call lbw.

Fantastic judgement!

[Chris B.]

Oh - silly Mitch. Gets himself facing on 13 when Oz need 87 to win.

Even when it's your day you can't do that!

Little bit of trouble now.

Quick someone check on Nick @NTA

[NTA]

Well, we're pretty much fucked now.

Thought anything over 150 would be a stretch in the 4th innings, and I think that's been proven correct.

[Chris B.]

Yeah, well I wouldn't recommend being toooo optimistic, because you might now be disappointed.

Not sure it's the pitch for Starc's big-hitting game but, on the plus side, if he connects with a few they'll quickly get closer.

[NTA]

Closer but no cigar

[NTA]

gooooooooooooooooooooooooooone

Wonder if India will get the same tearful editorials about on-field behaviour as we did for ours back in the day...

Aus currently 7's for the win ... i'd be having me some of that if I had a betfair account

EDIT: literally 0.5 seconds after I post that, they changed to 15's ... now I'm not so sure, although Handscome is still there ... so the fat lady hasnt sung yet.

I reckon Ashwin might come back in here with a MOTM performance to win it for India with the ball

Good call!

On the other hand, Mitch Marsh is fucking hopeless. He's got to go!

[Bovidae]

That was a quick end. All to play for in the next 2 tests. You know Kohli will eventually cash in.

[Chris B.]

@MajorRage You'd now be a poorer but wiser man.

@NTA I've had an enjoyable evening and Jack Quigley has added to it!

[NTA]

It is a great shot.

DRAIN THE SWAMPS! AND THE MARSHES!

Batting average of 21.7 after 35 innings - he's making Guppy look like a master.

[Catogrande]

It's been reported over here that Smith looked for assistance from the dressing room in taking a review and that he'd admitted he shouldn't have done it. Any truth in this and if so was it as bad as it seems?

I saw that last night and my first reaction was that he'd be an automatic pick... for Zimbabwe...
