Australia (474 & 234) hands India (369 & 155) an 184-run defeat in the 4th Test to take a 2-1 lead in the 5-match series

[imshally81]

Easy runs for Australia ...

 

[HARKS]

Rohit bhai come on ,spread the field

 

[Romali_rotti]

Nice Jaiswal.drops.the 3rd catch.

 

[Croma]

lol.. Cummins and Labu turning it around

 

[Devadwal]

Jaiswal dropped another catch

 

[kingusama92]

Jaiswal is having a tough day.

 

[imshally81]

Highest chase at MCG is 231 and lead is already 240 now

 

[BouncerGuy]

This partnership is hurting india too much. If the lead crosses 300, game could be gone for India...

 

[Romali_rotti]

India will be chasing around 285 for the win...

 

[kingusama92]

10 more runs and the game will begin sliding Australia's way.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Jaiswal is having a nightmare. PUt down 3 sitters

 

[HARKS]

Game lost already, we never going to chase anything above 200+ with 2 walking wickets
This series is basically between Bumrah vs Australia, he keeping india in the hunt by himself even though he plays under one of the worst Captaincy and team

 

[Mrjungshook]

Rohit can you please stop shouting Mr vadapav.
You drop these kinda catches regularly.
Bole toh Bhai itna kich kich nahi karne ka kyaaaa.
Start scoring and don't shout at youngster.

 

[jnaveen1980]

That would have been a crazy catch if he took it.

That is a regulation catch for a specialist silly mid off. You have to stay down. He was standing upright. Wrong position to start with.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Please keep Jaiswal around all catchable locations and hope he keeps dropping it. Now that I think about it, this will ensure Nohit and Queen Kholi gets dropped after Aus wins this match

exactly

thats why vada pav and lolhi were so furious lol

 

[Romali_rotti]

Bumrah what a bowler..

Lol I mean a huge LOL at the folks comparing this generational bowler to an avg bowler like Waqar ....

 

[kron]

Bumrah what a bowler..

Lol I mean a huge LOL at the folks comparing this generational bowler to an avg bowler like Waqar ....

insult lmao
only wasim can be compared. from asia

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is a new ball pitch. AFter ball is 30 to 40 overs old nothing is happening

 

[Devadwal]

This test is repeat of 2011 MCG test.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Ind vs Aus and Pak vs SA test both of have been thoroughly enjoyable. Test cricket is best cricket

 

[BouncerGuy]

Day 4: Tea Break - Australia lead by 240 runs

IND 369
AUS 474 & 135/6 (49) CRR: 2.76

 

[Varun]

Ehh I wouldn't say the Indian team have that draw mindset. Kela is the only true classical bat, rest are modern or a mix of traditional and modern styles.

The choices here are to draw or lose. If they don't have the draw mindset in a crucial encounter in a 5-test series they might as well go home and wait for the IPL.

 

[kron]

if india wins then great. we can retain bgt. we still have scg as well.
if we lose then also we win provided rohit and kohli under peform as usual. then we can niggle them out. permanently

siraj needs to go too.

 

[Varun]

This test is repeat of 2011 MCG test.

I was so angry after that game.

 

[Croma]

India need Bumrah to bowl and get wickets

 

[kron]

India need Bumrah to bowl and get wickets

how much will he do. he has done enough. these bozos need to carry on. unlucky jaissu dropped 2 easy catvches. man this guy has so much luck lmao

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think those dropped chances deflated India.

 

[Ahmed216]

Aussies trying to up the scoring rate a bit

 

[kron]

pitch looks flat still. survive 30 overs and its easier to bat.

 

[kron]

bumrah trundling at 128 to 134 now yet still looks more dangerous than 140 to 144 starc

 

[kron]

what a day its going to be over the next 2 days. india to chase under 280 and win by tomorrow.

and pakistan to run through south africa today and win

 

[kron]

i think aus may lose the series on purpose and then win vs lanka. so that they can beat kohli and rohit in the wtc final again. as they know kohli and rohit will fail under pressure as always.

4 d chess

 

[Croma]

i think aus may lose the series on purpose and then win vs lanka. so that they can beat pannuati kohli and rohit in the wtc final again. as they know kohli and rohit will fail under pressure as always.

4 d chess

Many careers will be in danger if they do this

 

[jnaveen1980]

Jaiswal may have cost the test for India

 

[kron]

this is the 3rd time i have heard indian batsmen say they dont face jasprit in the nets cause its scary

jaddu now. if you dont face him in the nets, how the eff will you improve batting?
no wonder our batting sucks. they try to duck bumrah

 

[kron]

Many careers will be in danger if they do this

yea for sure

 

[Croma]

Jaiswal may have cost the test for India

silly run out and then 3 drops

 

[kron]

rohit is going to run bumrah into the ground arent they?
@Devadwal
@Vikram1989

 

[Croma]

Labu should get an award from Cric Australia for this inning

 

[kron]

silly run out and then 3 drops

its ok bhai. what can we do. young guy. he played well.
it happens. we need to back him.

rohit and kohli played so bad. blame should go to them first.

 

[kron]

h

Labu should get an award from Cric Australia for this inning

first lbw should have got him. he escaped ump call
then catch drop lol
and then another drop

 

[jnaveen1980]

Labu has to be the luckiest batsman in the world lol 100 times beaten. dropped 2 or 3 times. Leg before escape with umpire's call

 

[kingusama92]

Bumrah is toying with the batsmen. What a performance so far.

 

[kron]

can virat kohli and rohit sharma vada pav step up today and score ??

@Vikram1989

for once in ther life under pressure

 

[kron]

guys we need to thank jaissu actually. he may end kohli and rohits careers today or by tomorrow haha

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bumrah had to say this to Labu "You are the luckiest batsman alive " lol

 

[Varun]

silly run out and then 3 drops

He is - 20 at the moment.

 

[Varun]

can virat kohli and rohit sharma vada pav step up today and score ??

@Vikram1989

for once in ther life under pressure

Impossible.

Rohit is waiting for AmbanIPL and Virat is waiting to go to the UK.

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is - 20 at the moment.

Understood. But India had a golden chance that will turn on its head because of those drops

 

[kron]

Understood. But India had a golden chance that will turn on its head because of those drops

also labu lbw and drop yes.

 

[Mrjungshook]

Bumrah had to say this to Labu "You are the luckiest batsman alive " lol

I wish Virat had that luck.

 

[Devadwal]

I was so angry after that game.

Australia were reduced to 24-4 but after that hussey and punter added 100+ runs partnership .

 

[kron]

jaddu shouldnt bowl so quickly to get the over completed. our quicks will have even less rest smh

 

[Devadwal]

Jadeja is useless with the ball .

 

[Varun]

Have you noticed over the years, whenever a batsman from the opposite team is struggling we make sure we give them a series full of highlight reels (Smith, Labuschagne in this case, Ponting, Cook in the past). But in the same series our out of form players continue to look Shell shocked and fail endlessly (Kohli here, others in the past).

Here we are gifting Labuschagne a crucial 3rd innings 100 he'll be remembered for when folks look back on his career.

 

[BDfanforever]

What is more impressive: Bumrah's bowling or Cummins batting?

 

[Varun]

Here we are gifting Labuschagne a crucial 3rd innings 100 he'll be remembered for when folks look back on his career.

Haha thank me later!

 

[Devadwal]

Marnus gone.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Damn Labus Luck runs out

 

[kingusama92]

India still has a chance here. Big wicket.

 

[mango_bite77]

@Rajdeep Happy now with umpire?

 

[Ahmed216]

Hack Labuschagne departs. Awful technique he's got.

Australia ahead though

 

[Devadwal]

India still has a chance here. Big wicket.

No match is already gone when lead cross 220.

 

[mango_bite77]

What is more impressive: Bumrah's bowling or Cummins batting?

Labu's smartly not allowing Cummins to face Bumrah

 

[Devadwal]

@Rajdeep Happy now with umpire?

Labuschagne has been trapped in front but he takes the review. Looks quite adjacent to the naked eye. ( cricbuzz)

 

[kron]

siraj getting some wickets now. lol that is an issue.
sira is good in terms of skills but he lacks brains to be a great bowler.

 

[mango_bite77]

Labuschagne has been trapped in front but he takes the review. Looks quite adjacent to the naked eye. ( cricbuzz)

Looked plumbed, I didn't expect this much bounce.

 

[kingusama92]

No match is already gone when lead cross 220.

I think India's depth can do it if they plan every part of the innings. Once it goes into 280-300 range then I'm leaning towards Australia.

 

[BDfanforever]

Brother Siraj gets Marnus.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Match is gone but I really hope our batters can make a fist of it and make sure Cummins is forced to bowl many overs.

 

[Ahmed216]

Why Indian bowlers are doing this celebration after wickets? Gesturing towards the crowd

 

[Devadwal]

Strac to take on Jadeja

 

[BouncerGuy]

Siraj has done what Bumrah was trying to do. Jaiswal will be relieved now

 

[Devadwal]

Why Indian bowlers are doing this celebration after wickets? Gesturing towards the crowd

Then you're missed lots of things at the Start of this test .

 

[Devadwal]

Jadeja please use some variations.

 

[kron]

Why Indian bowlers are doing this celebration after wickets? Gesturing towards the crowd

what ? you mean gesturing? i think its cause of what konstas did
seems like they got irked by a 19 year old lmao

 

[psyoptica]

match looks in balance but the wicket won’t be easy to bat in the second innings at all. From Australia’s perspective, they would need to get rid of Jaiswal as early as possible and have an effective plan to deal with Indian tailenders if it ever cones to that. The pressure will be on Australia for sure to rescue this match. They don’t have a Bumrah to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

 

[Mrjungshook]

siraj getting some wickets now. lol that is an issue.
sira is good in terms of skills but he lacks brains to be a great bowler.

He has that typical Miya Bhai aggression which he should try to control, he will definitely be better when you are too aggressive it mess up with your head and your plans. Look at right now siraj is so excited that he will eventually give you 1 2 boundary balls in every over.
With Bumrah it's different he is calm and composed he doesn't get too excited he goes back to his work.
