Yeah - the commentators were saying that, as well. I didn't see the first innings, but apparently Lyons had the ball spitting like a cobra. He was still getting the odd one to bounce pretty alarmingly last night, but it wasn't impossible to bat. Commentators expecting it to get lower and more variable bounce as today wears on, so the sooner Oz get out on it the better, irrespective of the number of runs they need.
And the cracks are now playing merry hell with proceedings. Saha has decided to go the kitchen sink on some bad bowling. Lead is 171

Hazlewood is so fucking good. He's McGrath but better

Still can't get the fuckers out tho...
Re. Your post on Ashwin - your pessimism knows no bounds.
On this one - that's a good sign. Actually, Saha and Ishant are looking relatively comfortable after a foolish flurry of wickets.
Michael Clarke doesn't think the Indians have enough runs - I don't think they do either. If the Aussies start well and keep their nerve they'll get these comfortably.

Its hard to be optimistic when you can't see the wicket.
Funnily enough, seeing the wicket isn't that much of a help.
Started out this morning looking quite bat-able - then suddenly Starc and Hazelwood blew away five Indians and I thought "minefield" - and then it suddenly looked pretty benign again. Saha turned down 10-15 runs, which is costly in itself - due to some shit shots from the lower middle order getting themselves out.
If the Aussies grind away with a bit of caution they'll get these - four down! Mitch Marsh to hit the winning runs!

10/0, organise the victory parade now.
