fineleg Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 India has a bad habit of not closing out when it matters- remember the really weak England team and we were leading 1-0 but let them win at Bombay. Even in this match the way things have gone we have repeatedly faile dto shut the door. Pakis were on the floor when Kamran Akmal was able to draw the test. and Aussies won after our miracle victory at Calcutta. I think Aussies will pull up a miracle win because we failed to score 40-50 more runs that wud have shut the door on them This is what is the real concern here. There is a win possibility for Aus, we need to shut it in First Session of play day-5! Link to comment
fineleg Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 Statistically yes. But historically (in India) and practically. HUGE NO. See 8-1 field till lunch tommorow. Ensure the series win and then go for the test win. Don;t care about the battle' date=' but aim to win the war.[/quote'] Hopefully what you suggest above works out. I do think Aus have the firepower to launch into an attack against our bowling. If Hayden stays beyond lunch, then its tricky. Get that little big weed out early Link to comment
