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

India just has to draw this test and next one they will retain the BGT. I don't think INdia has any chance to get to WTC final. SL has better chance than INdia
That's why I said Australia wants to win this match because Sydney is a flat track India can draw or win their easily. Australia already has won wtc final so Cummins wants to win bgt to break that streak. He is hungry for this trophy. For india if it was not for wtc they would have came all gun blazing here.

Australia can still get to final after drawing two tests.
 
This is a surface Boland batted like a top order batsman against old ball. So seeing off ball is way way more important than scoring runs.
 
Indians have seen off the new ball. Watch Rohit and Jaiswal go berserk now. Australians will eventually opt for defensive fields and negative lines.
 
It’s funny Ravi Shastri was pointing out the lack of feet movement from Rohit.

During his playing days, Ravi Shastri was famous for having planted feet. He was as expert at nicking it to keepers.
As per sidhu he has only 2 shots .one is chapathi shot (leg side flick and rolling his entire bat) and another on off side.he used to wait for those balls and eat rest in odis.

He tried and lost his wicket. People here actually think it's easy to chase Target against Australia just because India did it once doesn't mean they will do it everytime.
 
Dang it. Rohit if he has any ounce of self respect should announce his retirement from the Test format after this test and allow Kohli to lead in the final test.
 
Selfless Rohit's knock comes to an end.he was playing leg side and got caught offside.shows how slow his reflexes are.Almost a tailender dismissal in 90s.
 
Rohit is a pure flat track bully.

Never improved on his technique.

If the ball moves he’s a walking wicket.
 
India winning is impossible now.

I said yesterday this was already unlikely because the lead was too much.

This pitch has enough demons for India to collapse.
 
Australia need 8 wickets.

India will need to bat out of their skins just to get a draw.

This is not a pancake wicket by any means.
 
Well, Rohit as usual failed. Please retire at the end of the Test.

Rahul and Pressure does not go well. When India needs, Rahul fails.

No hopes for Kohli either.
 
KL Rahul averages 34.

That’s surprising and poor stats for a top side tbh, considering he’s played over 50 matches.

Probably should be axed - he must be getting backing from Kohli or Rohit.
 
Defending and prodding on this wicket is a big no no and will mean certain defeat for India.

They need to play shots to get the Aussie bowlers off their lines and lengths.
 
Pitch has definitely quickened up. Cummins and Bolland are not getting that extra lift from short of a length. Not easy to play the cross bat shots now.

Don't judge anything by how Kohli and Rohit bat lol THey look listless on most pitches these days
 
Of course we will lose this by 200 runs. But the fact still remains that majority of our top and middle order is trash.
KL Rahul wicket was most important for india to drawing this test. Rohit is useless so not much matters

Now we have no chance
 
India going at 1 run an over.

What a dumb strategy.

They threw in the towel at the start of the day.
 
KL Rahul averages 34.

Really unbelievable stat for a batsman of a team like India. What a nepotism! I thought he is getting chance because he is the caretaker of Indian PM Modi's ex girlfriend.
 
Cummins did blunder yesterday to not bowl 8-10 over at the end of day.

That may cost australia big time.

Time Will tell
 
Pant gets a lot of credit for the 2021 Brisbane win but the real hero of that win was Gill for the blazing start he gave which made it possible for India to chase the total.
 
Draw is 5% chance and Aus win is 95%.

The loss of Rahul ensured that India will not even think of chasing this target.
