no but the second new ball was approaching


On a relatively slow batting pitch and that too in the 2nd session of the 3rd day, is not relatively a big issue and can bring more runs  .... Both Pujara and Pant looked comfortable. Only wkt lost to a good ball was Pujara’s (and he could have avoided playing it)

Pujara

Mayank open

Gill

Rohit

Pant 

Rahane

Thakur? Or Jesus. I don't know?

Ashwin

Saini

Siraj

Bumrah

 

That should be our lineup for the next test in that order.

Even pant could have avoided the ball he got out to.

yeah, so pujara's idea of playing 500 balls to make a century before cummins bowls a good ball isn't really feasible here. There is a reason he never played this slow in his career

When has Pujara taken 500 balls to score a 100? He also bats differently with the tail for e.g. 132 not out in Eng, 123 run out  (9th wkt) v Aus at Adelaide

India lost the match yesterday itself when Rahane and Pujara scored just 18 runs in final hour. After a brilliant opening stand, Australia was looking to slow the tempo down and these 2 played in their hands. There is absolutely no reason to bat so slowly on this flat pitch after an opening stand of 70 runs.

Any comparison between Pujara and Dravid is a joke. Dravid rotated the strike well and played the role of a stroke maker when needed. Pujara killed the momentum yesterday even and today derailed the inning. Aussies know that when he’s around run scoring will never cross 3 rpo even if the other end is blazing away.

Even if Aussies get 60-70 runs least, all they will need is another 150-170 in 2nd inning. 

 

Aussies are likely to get 80-100 runs lead and score 250+ in 2nd inning. 340-350 would be impossible to chase. 

 

Draw is out of equation now. 

 

Can't see this batting chasing anything above 170.

What did you expect?

Pujara will now come and chase one wide one in second innings only to get out. Cummins has his number, he simply cannot handle Cummins. But I don't think you can blame Pujara, Cummins is that good.

Pujara is a better player in indian conditions then RD and overseas its opposite.

 5/11 of the team cant bat to save their lives... this is the batting standard of our tailenders.

First let the batsmen learn to bat, then we can worry about the tail :laugh:

Bowlers have been doing a great job considering all the injuries. Batsmen can neither bat, nor hold on to catches.
