I agree. The problem is Aussies are playing spinner just for the sake of playing, that is not right, you should play your strength.... lyon does look threatening at all.

True! But we need to keep this in mind that even :warne has a terrible record against India, India are the best team against spin, spinners like Lyon won't even be considered as a net bowler for a team like India. You are right though, Australia should have selected Harris over Lyon
 
Australia saves 30 to 50 while fielding and india does the opposite
 
Heh Patto owning these FTB. Where are all these gun batsmen? I see one gun batsmen not five.

Lyon leaking runs but Harris wasnt worth the risk, if we won the toss and batted at the SCG you need a spinner in the fourth innings. At the moment Lyon isnt really needed.
 
50 partnership...

Actually not a bad session for India..

102 runs in 27 overs for 2 wickets
 
Ashwin looks like a better batsman than Virat, more confident. I heard from someone that he used to open the innings during school days, he should bat ahead of Kohli.

Hoping to update it again in a few days :)

Seriously whats with these indian batsmen? Call for drinks four minutes before tea? Pulling away, complain about the sightscreen. We have crowds here, deal with it lol.
 
Even the Bangladesh can beat India... with this mind set.... well now India's days are few to rule the ODIs because of 2 new balls rule... India will get out less then 250 every time.... home or abroad...
 
178 for 8

Aussies would be pleased to get India all out for 200 here on first day, they know if they can bat well here, next II Days would be good for batting ... and they can get a lead of say 125 - 150. It will be tough for India. Though Aussies have to Bat last, they would not be looking to chase anything over 150 .....
 
Dhoni should look to play positively after Tea, look to get as many runs as possible here.

Oh so that's why crowd was booing all the time, i was wondering what was going on! Thanks for the clarification, yeah Hilfy looked quite mad and had a few words to say to Teenda when he was complaining about the sightscreen.
