Desi Cartman Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 No Follow-on ??? Oops forgot to mention .. Kumble will get injured once again and would not impose the follow on to take some rest before bowling in the 2nd innings. :gossip: Link to comment

Fontaine Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Day 4 Predictions!!!! Firstly, we were terribly unluckly today. There were more than a dozen times the spinners beat the batsmen and the fast bowlers got the ball to move around and reverse swing and continuously got the better the Aussies and beat the bat and got good LBW shouts. When we did the see the ball edged it either fell short or went beside the slip fielder(s), not to mention a couple of close run out chances. That's test cricket I suppose. You can bowl beautifully and dictate terms to the batsmen but unless you get those breakthroughs it matters for nothing. So with that in mind what are you day 4 predictions? Will Australia continue to be lucky and avoid the follow on? Link to comment
Cricketics Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Australia 340 -5 at stumps on day 3 Krappich - 182* Hussey - 72* DAWG..... u know what i'm sayin daw..... Link to comment
cochise Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I think Oz will avoid the follow on and get to about 500 before being all out. After that, it will be interesting how India drive the game. 5th day pitch will be a challenge and I hope we have Kotla Kumble back and fighting fit for that. However, if we are lucky (and more attacking with the field placings) and skittle them before lunch...then things could get really interesting... Link to comment
Cricketics Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Australia 510 - a/o Clarke 114 Lee - 54 India in reply are 139-3 We have a lead of 242 at stumps on Day 4 Link to comment
ludhianvi Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 To avoid the follow on, they require about 75 odd runs right? So if that's the case, it should be relatively easy to avoid the follow on . Day 4: Aus : 488 all out Ind: 140/3 [edit] lol tics, tera copy nahi kiya tha :tounge_smile: Link to comment
coffee_rules Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 330/5 Better than almost everybody!!!:eyedance: Link to comment

umpire Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I think, we have to get them out by lunch tomorrow and bat for 2 sessions and hammer them on 5th day Kotla pitch Link to comment
jukkha Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Will the pitch become more difficult to bat on day 4? If so I think Australia will score around 433 all out. India will be 180 for 3 at close. Link to comment
vsd2006 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 It all depends on whether Dumble comes back onto the field. Assuming that he doesnt then we have a good chance of bowling them out under 450 in a session and a half and then taking about 160 run lead, we come out to bat for 30 overs or so, we could score around 160 or so and put them into bat for 5-7 overs at the end of the day and then we could have a match on the 5th day. If we can set them a target of about 325 or so to chase on the 5th day with Kumble out then we have a good chance to win on this kotla wicket. Now if Kumble comes back on to the field tomorrow, which might happen, then my prediction is that we wont be able to bowl out the aussies till Tea because Kumble will try to overbowl himself and as we all know, there is a good chance that he may not get any wickets. If that happens then India will be working with the aussies to draw the game. Link to comment
