Also Marnus on 2 off 42 balls, Boycott would be proud.

Groundsman should absolutely be getting a tap on the shoulder about this.

 

Or is just that both India and Oz bowling attacks are awesome.

Only been watching Aus innings but pitch doesn't seem to be doing anything crazy

Then it may well be outstanding bowling which both sides are capable of.

[RowlattsFox]

Only just looked at the score. Crazy pitch? Excellent bowling? Or is it another example of batsmen not being able to bat properly anymore, and adapt to situations and pitches quickly. Add in the lack of red ball practice the players have.

Marnus playing one of the all time staunch innings here, love it

Hahahah RIP

This series was always going to about which set of bowlers can remain fit and be consistent

[Corky]

Australia should be docked 12 points for this pitch.

[leicsmac]

And now apparently it's a batters paradise.

 

Odd game.

[StanSP]

Now it's a good test match

What are the chances of Kohli retiring from tests after this series if this form continues?

If this form continues he should stay in...

You do love to see Australia getting pumped

His record in Australia is decent isn't it, obviously good if he helps to win this series, but whether it just pushes the issue down the road

I think it does for a lot of the senior players that have been around for over a decade.

It would be nicer if it were someone like NZ doing the pumping, but yes.

[StanSP]

Great decision to declare at that time. Always amusing when the night-watchman gets out too. 

[Corky]

Let's hope it is us doing it next year.

[Bert]

Can’t believe I actually want India to win a series  

[leicsmac]

It does show that Oz are mortal at home, and England should be taking notes.

[Super_horns]

Outstanding by India .

 

Totally outplaying the Aussies in their own back yard .
 

Jordan Cook out of the NZ series .

 

Ollie Pope to take the gloves it seems .

[Lionator]

These Aussie pitches are making me think Woakes could do a job after all next winter.

 

If Jaiswal can cash in this series, and Bumrah keeps fit, then the Aussies are going to find it hard to win the series imo. 

[goody2028]

Putting in a nightswatchmen to lose your number 3 anyway is absolutely hilarious, the fact it’s the aussies is even better. 

 

 

Jaiswal an insane talent, also. 

[StanSP]

Nice early wicket to kick off proceedings in what will hopefully be an absolute embarrassment for the Aussies. 

 

Although it is a reminder of when we scored a mammoth 36 runs in an innings then went on to win the series... 

[leicsmac]

That's a pretty conclusive win.

[Super_horns]

What a turn around for India so soon after the NZ series .
