Real McCoy Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 3 minutes ago, express bowling said: The interesting part is ... most of the wickets of the top 7 batsmen fell when they tried to defend. Wade is the only exception. Smith, Harris and Paine were dismissed off snorters. If I want to be critical, only Smith's dismissal was unplayable. harris is not good on the short ball and paine too is susceptible to hook shot which may be on or off like Rohit. it was good bowling though. Labu's dismissal was a nice delivery on the channel but could have left on length but I'm not sure. They also created some edges of Warner that went to 3rd slip region which was empty not to mention that drop chance of Smith off Sundar in long off and the return catch off Green. but these are good deliveries and zen is not appreciating them for what they are.

Can Statsguru with some filters give us the answer? Link to comment

We bowled Aus in the first innings under 400 and if not for the dropped catches, under 250 too. Also our senior batters played irresponsibly and that cost us getting a substantial lead which could have been a match winning one. raki05 1 Link to comment

In every game, there would be moments for both teams. If I take the lowest and highest stock price of the day, I would always make max $, however in real time, there are various factors that do into deciding the entry and exit points If Aus would have scored 400, would you have said that we did well to bowl out Aus under 500?

I would not. The usual first innings score here was around 350. So we basically were not that far from it. That's why I see this is a monumental effort from a rookie bowling lineup Link to comment

I am not too sure as the approach mentally will be different when you are looking to play a long inning or score quickly ... when trying to score quickly, you are making an adjustments for good balls Link to comment

They were 111/7 and the last 3 scored 80 runs and they were playing under lights with the pink ball. So its either their tail wags or our bowling despite who is playing is clueless to mop their tail. We had Bumrah, Shami, Yadav and Ashwin in that matchup. This one has Siraj as the leader Dude I know you won't give up and put more and more questions and stats to defend your opinion like its a gabba fortress. I want no part of it. Thanks and good night.

With this line up yes getting Aussie allout for under 400 Would still have been a monumental effort, the fact that we got them out for under 400 once and under 300 with a bowling line up of a guy in his 3rd test,2 debutants, 2 guys playing their 2nd test one of them only bowled 10 balls in one of those. It shows bowlers having a plan, bowling to a plan, never giving up under pressure and constantly delivering. You can nitpick a million things but it doesn’t change the fact that it was incredible bowling and grit displayed. What you think or analyze is pointless. Link to comment

You carry on Aus' tail is good while its top 6 needs consistency from Warner (did not play in the first 2 tests), Smith (hit his stride from test 3) & Labu Link to comment

Scores are in relation to pitches, current form, etc. and not based on how what you imagined before the game or on rating Ind's other bowlers in the squad Link to comment

Rightarmfast Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) If one has watched the match, not one of the Aussie wicket was lost because of trying to score fast. An argument could be made about Paine's wicket, however it was the individual brilliance of Shardul that got the wicket. The natural response of an Aussie batsman would be to hit a ball like that. Obviously, the only batsmen who tried to score quickly were the tail enders, but then if one believes they are the front line batsmen, thats a different issue. Aussies had come with a timid mindset, there was no way they could throw their wicket in search of runs. As much as pitch conditions and a batsmans' form guides the final score, it eventually comes down to your bowlers how they perform and how much are they willing to bend their back. India did just that. It was all the effort of the Indian bowlers, not one Aussie threw his wicket away. Credit where its due!
