Australia's Summer of Fun

[Grazz]

Maybe India will change their minds now on DRS now. It should be in every game around the world how India gets to say no we don't want it just baffles me. :)

India is too large a stakeholder in world cricket, and unfortunately, they know it.

The world cricketing body is week as you know what.  ;)

Edit: weak as

[Bill Manspeaker]

Nice innings Warner, but silly shot considering the mediocre bowler who spins it towards cow corner for you, why reverse sweep against the spin.... :\

Time for Steve and Mitchy fireworks, get hitting not as easy to score runs out there as people commenting above think. Hopefully they can score another 100

yeah that's it, think scoring runs isn't that easy out there. Davey is in stellar form, and I think even he was finding it hard towards the end there

[Mailman the 2nd]

Considering that its been more than 100 years since a total of 250 has been chased down at Adelaide it really doesn't matter how fast Australia bat, rather when they declare

[Jay]

Why are we batting so slowly? ???

Because the lead is currently 286 and the plan must be just to bat out the day and declare overnight with whatever the score is at stumps.

Clearly they're confident with bowling India out tomorrow.

Would have liked to have been a bit more aggressive. This is still a good batting wicket.

No captain would risk it though as they are saying now.

And considering India's long tail, they probably are fine as they are.



Now Smith can play a reverse thingo (that wasn't a sweep) against K. Sharma.

I guess so. Didn't look effective but got him 4 haha

Yeah Clarke evidently isn't going to declare right now, just pointing out

[nrich102]

Marshy  :D

[Jay]

Should declare now!!

[nrich102]

Marsh  :(

Very good innings though, just needed to smash some runs and he did that well.

[Nige]

Not sure it would be a wise decision to declare now, just pile on the runs until stumps.
