Last wicket off the last ball before lunch. SOK not giving a fuck - just wants to get into the Indian batting lineup again.
Not going to find it quite as easy this time.
Will be interesting to see if Smith goes with the same bowling strategy as he did 1st Innings - keep a paceman fresh and on rotation.

Great hundred by Smith there. Could be his best.
Lead is 400 now, anything more now is gravy. Still won't rule the Indians out...
Well, they'll need the highest ever winning score in the 4th innings and, I think, the sixth highest 4th innings score of all time.
On a dynamite pitch they barely made 100 on the first time round.
I don't think this is the spirit of Chappelli and Lillee!

Doubtless a notable power surge being recorded across Australia as the new generation of Aussies put their underwear in a deep cycle laundry wash.
It'll all be nice and clean for tomorrow's victory parade.
Chappelli will just be able to wear his inside out as usual.

For God's sake, don't mention power surges around Nick - we'll get another 2000 words on the Tesla Powerwall!

I hope we post something reasonable and fucking flog them, using spin.
^^^ my wishes don't come true very often, but this one has.
And let me tell you: it is a close run race between what's happening in Pune and my desire to get the wife and her best mate in the sack together.

Well eff me!
That is an absolute hiding of India v Ireland proportions, in India, if ever such a test were to happen.
Fair fucking dues you horrible aussies.
NTA and Barbarian and others, bask in this because it is (Bruce McAveney, what is it?) Special
Well done, out "India'ed" India in India
Not deflecting from the win, rather enhancing it, I thought highly of Kohli's paraphrased speech on cricinfo:
"It's been a good run. Good to see the support. We got outplayed in this game. We got to take it on the chin, accept that they outplayed us. It was our worst batting display in the last two years. We need to see what we did wrong. They exploited it better than us. They put us under pressure throughout and deserved to win this game. We've had two really bad sessions and to pull it back against a quality side is very difficult. No excuses. Sometimes, you have to take your hat off and tell the opposition well done."
Reflects well on both Australia and Kohli
Now to see the contest between these two leaders of men - an intriguing subtext of the series is the duel between Steve and Virat - how does Steve keep his men up, yet grounded, and how does Virat react in the midst of a National disaster to get his boys doing what they should

Sucked in you Indian fluffybunnies.
