Australia v India

[ACT Crusader]

@KiwiMurph said in Australia v India:

I think Australia have effectively taken one result out of the equation - they have about 100 more runs than the highest successful chase at the GABBA.

I love how the commentators keep talking up India. Australia are so in the box seat it’s not funny.

Good bowling Siraj. A few of the more established Indian pace men might be looking over their shoulders, nervously.

[KiwiMurph]

India have to be pleased with their second string bowling lineup all things considered - lost the toss and bowled Australia out twice.

@KiwiMurph said in Australia v India:

@Chris-B isn't that assuming full overs get bowled which almost never happens?

Dunno - but, India will easily have time to get these regardless if it doesn't rain and they're good enough. They went at 3 in the first innings.

328 to get is it?

[Kiap]

I'd reckon 25+90 ... 115 overs left (excl. rain)

2.84 rpo is about the minimum rate, ... if they can last.

They’re saying 25 overs left today and then all tomorrow. Sure there are overs to get them but I think the Aussie bowlers will cause India to have a mountain of dot balls

@ACT-Crusader Yeah!

In all seriousness, hardly anyone ever makes these.

But, there will be trembling if the Indians are 80/0 tonight!

[KiwiMurph]

They aren't going to get many overs in before the next rain.

@booboo missed your post as it was the bottom of the page.

I don't think that band out west will come close enough

I dunno. Check out the latest.

would be stoked if Gill could get a big score here. He looks a player.

Feels like a jinx, but I'll go there anyway.

It’s not a jinx if two or more say it, so I hope he scores a big one too.

@ACT-Crusader ... and the rain's on.

If it's short, suits India - a wet ball won't do much

[KiwiMurph]

@nzzp it doesn't look short. That's the end of the day's play I'd say.

Looks dark out there along with the rain.

[KiwiPie]

This is perfectly set up unless rain ruins it. A very tough but not impossible chase with plenty of overs. It has been a great series and given the injury problems of India, they have done very well to still be in with a chance of taking the series.

[Donsteppa]

Pity about the rain delay. Warnie would have declared after lunch and had India chase 150 while he turned it out of the rough next to the square leg umpire.

[delicatessen]

Early doors, but India haven't gone into their shells. Could get good if these two stay in for a while.

[NTA]

This is a good over from Cummins.
