fineleg Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 75 runs lead is HUGE in the context of the game. Given the brilliant form of Nathan Lyon and given how Indian batsmen are not like the yesteryear guys (Azhar, Laxy, Ganguly...) who kill spinners, these days our batsmen are tentative. - And India batting 4th Inn, Aus are in massive setup to win Adelaide with Harris, MJ, Siddle and Lyon. With spinner in play and 4th Inn - 75 run lead ~= 150 run lead
coffee_rules Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 Not. We will have to bat full day on Day 5. M will not declare anything less than 350-360 on Day 5. So Aus will have to score 280 in 75 overs today. Likely they will bat on D5 with some early wkts now..so they will have to slow down. 100+ run is huge 73 runs is manageable.
fineleg Posted December 12, 2014 Author Posted December 12, 2014 Not Watch...60-70 overs Aus will score 300 (plus 75) and set 350/375 target and 5th day pacers and Lyon will be HUGE. That 75 will help with earlier declaration.
BeautifulGame Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 We just need a Faf like performance to save the day Hopefully Pujara Vijay or Rahane can step up
coffee_rules Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 Blame Virat, Nohit for this misery for throwing their wickets..when we could have eaten into the lead...

rkt.india Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 ARSOL's problem has always been indecisiveness.
SLICKR392 Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 ****ing Rohit man!!! Should have stuck there till lunch. Not all that bad considering the team score 500+ and giving away a lead less than 100 is good enough.
