We are losing this test match

[The Outsider]

Yep...that would be ideal. Have a real go and then put the aussies in under some heat. Then serve them curry. Maybe even' date=' Harbhajan can redeem himself by taking 8/84 again?[/quote']

India will be very happy with a draw, this is very obvious for all to see. If only Australia had played for win...They were $hit scared led by Ponting..what a uncharacteristic knock...well lets give him BOD, but Symmo was in form of his life..even he was sedate...we all know which team was playing for win and draw..

yes.. india and I don't blame them :)

I think the Indians will go for it after a consolidation period. Mark my words...if they make it to the drinks break of the first session without loss....game on! One down at that time and it may be consolidation till lunch and then another launch. If more were to fall, then it would be shut up shop and batten down the hatches.

[beetle]

actually we should score in 200 runs in 35 odd overs and declare....lets have final go at aussies..

With two bowlers injured...I doubt it ......

[cochise]

Kumble and RP will be given special ayurvedic healing tonight and special masaala tea for added spice for post-tea session. Seriously though...because it is not going to be of extended duration, they can still give it a go with the resources at hand...Sharma, Pathan, Harbhajan, Sehwag and perhaps Tendulkar...especially if it is turning a lot and keeping up and down. And Kumble may not be as bad as we think...I have not heard anything much to suggest that he is out of action for tomorrow.

Guys this artical is intersting. content-aus.cricinfo.com/ausvind/content/current/story/333658.html Kumble should make a gamble with first 50 over of the day, let ausees chase again. Coz India can't win this series anyway.

[suraj]

Nothing to lose so lets go for a win- set a chase with couple of quickfire knocks (Yuvi will be missed here)

It is not in the Indian spirit to play for a win and risk a loss. To the Indian team, a draw is as good as a win in that it will save them from their public at home. No.. India will be very happy with a draw, this is very obvious for all to see.

I totally agree with you AussieDude ( and not many I have agreed with this completely here )...at the same time, I feel terribly saddened by this..I do feel we have a younger generation capable of risking everything for glory, like T20...so see the ODI series and Dhoni's men

[rkamisetty]

Well, I see australia win ONLY if umpires help them with just couple of crucial wickets (dravid for example). Otherwise, our batsmen are in reasonable form to enforce a draw.

[Guest HariSampath]

why......the thing is all that Aussies need is 1 out of every 60 balls to get a wkt in first 2 sessions and we will be scrd ? that impossible ?
