Australia lead by 298 runs with 6 wickets remaining
 
Ashwin not turning it. Poor bowling.

When he turns it, Rahane late reaction and missed Smith.

My God.
 
4th life for Smith :))

Things picking up where they left off yesterday, think Aus will win this today.
 
Rahane is garbage.
Can't. At when the ball spins and now dropping easy catches.
 
The catching from India has been disgusting to say the least! Absolutely filthy.
I hope whoever is responsible for their catching drills give them a right dressing down.
 
Why does Ashwin struggle on rank turners?

Smith is so lucky to be still batting.
 
Jaddu looks like taking wickets every over. Ashwin seems to be happy to complete his over without getting hit for a boundary.

Very disappointed with Ashwin's performance.

Let's hope he gets into rhythm. Last over was good with good line and length.
 
Now smith not given lbw :facepalm:
Might as well just declare that he has scored a century!
 
That was plumb. Pad first. :))

Smith bhai, what a test he is having. 6 times should have been out.
 
Sif i am getting a feel like this is eng 2012 in India when ashwin is not going to be effective and he will lose his line amd length and get punished big time
 
Nah dude...that was a different level of crappiness.

Whole new level.

This is a lack of rhythm issue. Also not imparting enough turn.
 
If Kohli gets 5-6 lives in the 4th innings, he'll win India the game.
 
I reckon we bring on Yadav from one end and keep jadeja on loop from the other
 
Let me repeat this again:

Smith was dropped off a simple catch BEFORE tea yesterday.

Score would have read 42-3 then.

Now here we are.
 
Flight on this pitch is useless.

You need to spin the ball at pace. Kind of like what Monty did in 2012.

Ashwin and Jayant are fighting the ball. Easily played.
 
Please drop that useless guy rahane from home tests forever. He is a disgrace against spin
 
Wicket might have settled a bit, still I think Aussies have enough already.

Now Indian's know how the Pakistani's must have felt when Sachin was dropped 6+ times in the 2011 WC SF.
 
Will anyone actually rate this Smith innings?

I rate innings less and less by the number of chances given.

He's on his 6th life by my count...
 
I am a bit disappointed with Kohli's Captaincy here. This is 3rd morning & there is no chance of rain - don't agree with his field setting.

He seems to be the same kind of Captain, who looks great when in dominating position.
 
If india can't dismiss aus in a rank turning pitch then i am afraid india has no chance in flat pitches as their batting will murder ashwin there
 
Umesh and Jayant bowling together :)))

I don't see them getting any wickets.

Only bowler who is threatening is Jaddu.

Kohli bhai, please have Jaddu bowl sooner before the lead becomes totally out of reach.

Might have to play the chinaman Yadav next test.

He's like Smith in that respect.

Too emotional and clueless when things aren't going their way.
 
Smith was given too many easy singles down the wicket.

It makes no sense. Ball spins into him, it will be very easy for him to take those singles.

Also India never should have collapsed for 105 on this wicket. Should have atleast got 250-300.

If Australia play well, India will win the series 3-0, don't worry
 
Smith will end-up in that almost fixed AT AUS XI. Not sure whom I'll drop, but this is my 12 now

Trumper
Hervey
Bradman
Greg
Ponting
Miller
+Gilly
*Benaud
Warne
Lillee
Mcgrath
..............
Border

Not sure whom I'll drop from this XI, but at this rate Smith will cost someone - probably Hervey, as I rate Greg better than Ponting, while I can't drop Bradman.

Sif u see this guy Jayant is not even spinning on a rank turner. He doesnt use his body at all

Jayant is unable to handle bounce pitches.

He was equally poor in Mumbai but on Mohali and Vizag he was good (atleast good enough for 3rd spinner).
 
suddenly there are two yadavs in indian team? whos the second one, the one i knew was a fast bowler
 
Lead 357, almost certain Australia will finish with a lead of 400 or more.
 
lol this is hilarious :)))

Must be infuriating for the Indians.
 
Umesh should not bowl. Aus are happy playing pace.

This loss is on Ashwin 's lack of penetration and Rahane being useless.

Ishant selection looks like a joke. Play Karin Nair or even Raina and make them bowl off spin. They will contribute more to the team than Ishant in the entire series.
 
Question : If, hypothetically we take that there won't be any rain & every 1st choice player is available for both sides - what will be the result of next Ashes (5 Tests) between this average Aussies & highly dynamic & modern Poms?

ODI, I won't consider here, because I do believe AUS A will win 4-1 or 3-2.
 
India were unlucky, there was a clear noise and nothing it could be other than bat.
 
We didn't have anywhere as much as this go our way in 3 Tests in India :facepalm:
 
What a terrible terrible match for us this is,nothing going our way!
 
If a spinner bowl no ball i guess he should be dropped for atleast next match just to teach him the lesson, and in hindsight if warner was not bowled of a no ball things could have been a lot different.
 
Very unlucky for the Indians, couple of decisions that should have been out not being given
