Also, as much as Kohli is an arrogant brat, was not good that Smith looked for help re DRS. Imagine how much outrage there would be from Aussies if the situation was reversed.

Don't you just lovee a MONDAY EXPERT.......bet he scooped the pools in the betting..............
How ironic the Indian team crying victim and accusing the Australian team of cheating, when for the last 12 months both Indian team management, curators and Captain Kole have been conspiring to deliver up such bias cricket wickets............
Sorry, I actually didn't know it was not allowed to look at the change room for some advices during the match. How about on a tennis court, I always thought the players look up to the coach box to see if he/she should challenge a line call. And so are all the balls sports !Quote:

tbh warner is getting shredded by ashwin 1v1, he just needs to get that hoodoo out of his mind. he was playing off side when balls spun into him and was playing legside when balls were spinning away from him.Quote:

I think somehow Warner needs to find a way to destroy Ashwin like what Watson did to Graeme Swan in Perth and pushed him out to early retirement ! Like 26 runs in that over !!
hmmm as a senior player warner definitely needs to step up, could well be a career defining moment.Quote:

Anyway, a thoroughly entertaining game and that man Jonathan Thurston did it again... Absolute freak.
Yeah, I was kicking myself for not putting something on the draw after 80 min - Sportsbet offered $17! Lots of punters did apparently.Quote:

Broncos v Cowboys and the Barcelona comeback were the highlights of the week for me.
I wish I had money on Barca to quality for the quarter finals, or better still put a live bet on them to qualify late in the second half.
Welcome back Maxwell to the test team and what a partnership with Steve Smith who had a Ton already!
Love to see Maxwell go on and make a maiden test century today and build towards a 400+ lead !
And I want Kohli to come back to the field playing today so that when they bat we can get him out cheap again !
Go Aussie !!
And welcome back Billy Slater !!
Maxwell got his first Test Century !
Well done , now go on and get a double with your captain !
how about that from maxwell, unlucky that smith couldnt get 200 but fuck what an innings from maxwell. the definition of redemption. maxwell redemption!!!
Too bad our bowlers couldn't make any impacts on the Indian top orders, only 1 wicket overnight and already leaked 100+ runs ! The match could be heading to a draw!Quote:

Full credit to Aussies at what they e achieved so far. A real pasting to the home side in test 1, and they were unfortunate to get such a dodgy wicket in test 2 where they had to bat last.
This pitch looks like a road. It's going to be one of those games.
You can't look up at the dressing room cause they all see it on the tv screen and can help guide the batsman if it 'looked out' or not.Quote:

You can look at dressing rooms, sometimes really not intentional. Nowadays, there's too many all sex changing room with full size mirrors and Curtain cover. Sometimes tge Curtin doesn't cover the edge and while queuing in line it's very clear. It's a bit annoying when you don't want to look but just right in your face.Quote:

Wow ! The Indians put on 600 runs (and did it without Kohli !) and now lead by 150+ and 2 overnight wickets !
Can Captain Smith bat out day 5 and save the draw ?
I think if he can, it's probably a better innings for him than the first test we won, sometimes a draw from the certainty of defeat is more of a defining moment for the Captain and his team !
Play trifecta and Quin only way to make $$Quote:

Batted all day to salvage a draw. A very important one today, we can now win or draw the next match to retain the trophy !
But certainly showed some badly needed fights and patience there and most importantly: did not collapse!
Smith and warner paving the way for a solid first innings. what a fantastic first session by the two lads.
