zen Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 4th day will be a big day. The day is expected to start 30 mins early so it will be a relatively long first session and the pitch will likely offer relatively more help to bowlers than on Day 3. The new ball is 19 overs away. We we have to seek to bat for like 50-60 overs. Which would give us around 130-180 runs more. So the range would be 280-350 sandeep 1 Link to comment
mishra Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 ^ And who will score those 180 runs Link to comment
Lala Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 without warner and smith, this aussie team is just like ranji side for me. this game is already done and dusted for aussies Link to comment
HouMac Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Won't feel totally secure with anything below 300, to be honest. And even then I wouldn't say the game is totally in the bag. Pitch is obviously not easy to bat on, but I also don't think it's as hard as these 2 ordinary batting lineups have made it look. Link to comment
zen Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 On the other hand, if we get bundked out in one session, no need to say that the bowlers job will be cut out Focus on playing for 50-60 overs tomorrow, which will likely ensure that we have a competitive total on board Link to comment

Chepu Rahane Rohit Pant, i somehow am not sure Count ashwin, maybe some slog from shami. We need a madcap 15 20 in such scenarios.. Link to comment
Vijy Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 A target of 300 is necessary to feel relatively safe, but it's some way off. Link to comment

Yes, pitch is not comfortable at all. If we force aussie to get second new ball @80 over then i am optimistic. Link to comment
GolGappe Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Anything south of 275 would be very difficult to chase. India is one decent partnership, 50+, away from putting this game beyond Australia's reach. Link to comment

Austin 3:!6 Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 No wicket lost in 1st hour. So target 400 run lead by tea and declare perhaps? Link to comment
anish2tweet Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Lead is around 165 with 7 wickets in hand. Ball turning for lyon big time from foot marks created by seamers. 2 days of play day to go but ofcourse rain need to be considered. What sort of score India would like to set for Aussies from where: A) They cant lose the game.B) Enough time to take 10 Aust wickets. Pls Note, Australia bats deep and literally has no tail.

mishra Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I think our last few bats lost the plot. They started thinking of awin instead of job at hand. I.e bat as long as you can Link to comment
