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

[kron]

Nitish Reddy domestic batting average is 20.

thats where data doesnt tell the full story. you need to anaylze the game qualitatively.

you need to look at batting technique in specific conditions.

we dont do that at all. sena teams do.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Nitish Reddy domestic batting average is 20.

Indian domestic Kumar’s are better than Starc, Cummins and Boland?

 

[kron]

i dont care if they get to 400 or whatever. i want them to grind these bowlers out. grind them to dust.
make them tired
make they suffer. cry for help. cry to their mommies

worry about hitting after. bat for time. bat another 30 40 overs and then go beserk.

 

[Devadwal]

Cummins is trying very Hard. Not good sign for us

 

[kron]

Indian domestic Kumar’s are better than Starc, Cummins and Boland?

can we bring back jurel and just have paddikal open??

 

[kron]

most impressive batsmen this year for me are 3

will young - impressive as hell
nitish reddy - pushpa the mass
and lastly konstas

+Kamran Ghulam but konstas has Only batted once so not qualified .

 

[BouncerGuy]

what an inning by reddy so far.. Saving India from massive trail... still 180 left though

 

[Justcrazy]

All Indian all rounders have contributed with the bat here

 

[kron]

aus best bpwler is not cummins or hazlewood
its boland

period

 

[Devadwal]

Reddy what was needs to Play reverse sweep?

 

[Ahmed216]

he is so overrated.

Slightly overrated

 

[Devadwal]

what an inning by reddy so far.. Saving India from massive trail... still 180 left though

Australia has already won this test when they scored 474. Period

Only formalities are left.

 

[kron]

Slightly overrated

he is basically a wagner level bowler or a southee

 

[kron]

Australia has already won this test when they scored 474. Period

pitch is ultra flat

 

[Devadwal]

Slightly overrated

This is overreaction.

 

[sweep_shot]

Looks like game is heading toward another draw.

 

[kron]

Looks like game is heading toward another draw.

not yet.

 

[kron]

11 overs survived. 19 more to go and then they can smash.

 

[Varun]

Pleasantly surprised at the score.

And with rain on the horizon I'll be laughing at Australia if we manage to keep it 1-1.

 

[Champ_Pal]

300 on the board.

Well done Reddy and Sundar

 

[Croma]

Ooooooh India have fought back... Lower orderis doing well

 

[Devadwal]

Looks like game is heading toward another draw.

Lol australia is huge favourite. Have some patience .

Australia is 175 runs ahead and still 2.5 day's are left.

Australia will score another quick 250 runs and give the target to india around 430 with 130+ overs left.

 

[Champ_Pal]

can we bring back jurel and just have paddikal open??

Jurel should play in place of Rohit. Gritty and plays with aggression coupled with tight defense.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pleasantly surprised at the score.

And with rain on the horizon I'll be laughing at Australia if we manage to keep it 1-1.

Highly unlikely. Aus are clear favs to win this even if India goes in to add another 50 runs.

 

[Devadwal]

Pleasantly surprised at the score.

And with rain on the horizon I'll be laughing at Australia if we manage to keep it 1-1.

Unfortunately No rain forecast for this test except current 1-2 hour but conditions are overcast only .

 

[Savak]

Starc declines towards the end of a lengthy series. Australia might need to consider resting him for the final test.

 

[Croma]

Australia still lead by 170 runs, so they are still in a dominant position in this test.

 

[kron]

india should get rid of kohli and rohit soon
kl next to go
siraj

then we can win again

 

[kron]

n

Starc declines towards the end of a lengthy series. Australia might need to consider resting him for the final test.

no keep playing that overrated dude. he is only selected for his looks tbh

 

[Devadwal]

Starc declines towards the end of a lengthy series. Australia might need to consider resting him for the final test.

They likely to bring Webster and Richardson in place of Marsh and strac for the SCG test.

 

[Devadwal]

Cummins - Smith 7th wicket partnership had killed the match for india .

 

[kron]

harry brook and atkinson would love these pitches to bat on

 

[Croma]

That was swiped for 4 by SUndar...

 

[Devadwal]

harry brook and atkinson would love these pitches to bat on

England batters have Mental block against australia in australia .

But let's see what they will do in next year ashes.

 

[Croma]

Lead has reduced to 159. 94 run partnership so far. Doing really well these 2.

 

[kron]

starc injured now just keeps getting better and better for india
thanks starc.
sorry

 

[Devadwal]

Starc is fighter. Bowling again after some back pain.

 

[kron]

cummins bowls lot of bouncers but pace has reduced. bumrah increased his pace early on but had no support. however bumrah rarely bowled bouncers. why??

 

[Devadwal]

starc injured now just keeps getting better and better for india
thanks starc.
sorry

Just some discomfort but likely to bowl again .

Not injured

 

[kron]

Starc is fighter. Bowling again after some back pain.

starc averages 80 in this match

 

[Devadwal]

starc averages 80 in this match

He can take remaining three wickets in just one over .

 

[kron]

115 to 125 jesus mitch marsh lmao

 

[Croma]

Was that a catch opportunity? Did Starc.... miss

 

[Devadwal]

Ahhhh just short.

 

[kron]

He can take remaining three wickets in just one over .

maybe with sandpaper
he is just handsome thats it

 

[Devadwal]

Was that a catch opportunity? Did Starc.... miss

No .it was just short

 

[kron]

ma

Was that a catch opportunity? Did Starc.... mis

marsh bowls so slow that you get confused and mis time it. cause you are not used to this sort of slowness

reddy should do the same. infact reddy actually bowls 120 to 130

 

[Devadwal]

Nothing to worry for Australia.

They still have massive lead of 150.

 

[Human786]

fantastic by these 2 ... DRAW ahead !

 

[kron]

No .it was just short

if jaiswal dint get out then india would have crossed 450 plus easy

 

[Devadwal]

fantastic by these 2 ... DRAW ahead !

Oh bhai 2.5 days are still left and they are 150 runs ahead.

 

[kron]

respect for the bowler, starc

even after injury he comes back and bowls 141. wow

 

[BouncerGuy]

What a partnership between Sundar and Reddy. 100+ is such situation is never easy,.

 

[Devadwal]

respect for the bowler, starc

even after injury he comes back and bowls 141. wow

He is a fighter. Bowling pacey bouncers after some back pain.

 

[kron]

He is a fighter. Bowling pacey bouncers after some back pain.

yea very impressive.

 

[kron]

What a partnership between Sundar and Reddy. 100+ is such situation is never easy,.

pitch is uber flat.
if our pannauti trifecta just made some effort, it owuld have been different story by now

 

[Croma]

Konstas is a very happy and lively chap... encouraging spectator to cheer for his team...

 

[Devadwal]

What a partnership between Sundar and Reddy. 100+ is such situation is never easy,.

They are just delaying the inevitable loss .

Too much time left and no rain to save india here.

 

[Rajdeep]

Is this Konstas guy mad or what? And camera is keep on showing his clownish behaviour.

 

[Croma]

Huh... a drizzle from nowhere

 

[kron]

sundar should play odi as lone spinner as well. great talent. lot of people praising nitsh who is brilliant but sundar too is mighty impressive.

 

[Devadwal]

Is this Konstas guy mad or what? And camera is keep on showing his clownish behaviour.

Australian are hyping a kid . nothing surprised

 

[kron]

just young bloke things
he is 19.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Indian Pairs with 100+ Partnership for 8th Wicket in Australia

Sachin/Harbhajan at Sydney (2008)
Kumble/Harbhajan at Adelaide (2008)
Nitish/Washington at Melbourne (2024)

 

[Rajdeep]

Why did umpire call early tea? Just bcoz Aussie bowlers are tired? Pathetic.

 

[Devadwal]

Huh... a drizzle from nowhere

I said earlier in this thread that only some rain forecast is today late afternoon .

After that no chance of any rain.

 

[Rajdeep]

just young bloke things
he is 19.

Have you seen U19 cricketers behave like this? He is deliberately doing it for camera. I am sure Cummins will have a word if this continues.

 

[Champ_Pal]

If India can bat for another 20 overs, it will be golden for them. Aus bowlers look tired and broken a bit. Make them stand more. Their bowlers are old. Will serve India well in the final Test.

India can seriously start dreaming of a draw if they can continue this for another hour or hour and half.

 

[Devadwal]

Why did umpire call early tea? Just bcoz Aussie bowlers are tired? Pathetic.

Now australia bowlers will come fresh while batters momentum likely to break after this short intervel.

Cleaver play by Australian .

 

[BouncerGuy]

There is some rain coming in to save India

 

[Croma]

326-7; 105 run partnership/

This break will help Australia regroup and come up with better plans. Indian batters will have regain their concentration..

fun period after the break.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Have you seen U19 cricketers behave like this? He is deliberately doing it for camera. I am sure Cummins will have a word if this continues.

Sammy just realized his new found fame. He is enjoying it. I am sure he will mellow down soon. A couple of failures will slow down his celebrations.

 

[Croma]

There is some rain coming in to save India

I think this break will help Australia more.

 

[Devadwal]

Not for final test but can benifits for India in 2nd innings.

Australia will replace Marsh and Starc with Webster and Richardson for the SCG test.

 

[asarkar]

Cummins - Smith 7th wicket partnership had killed the match for india .

It was Rohit’s selfish and dumb captaincy that killed the game for India. With right team selection and right strategies, Australia should not have scored more than 380.

 

[Savak]

Final test is at the SCG. India can easily make it 2-1 and beat Australia in Australia three times in a row.

 

[Vikram1989]

Is this Konstas guy mad or what? And camera is keep on showing his clownish behaviour.

He seems to be a attention seekers.picked all the bad qualities of kohli.guy should care about his terrible technique than antics. He was shown practising reverse flicks against Yorkers.He should try to bat sensibly. He can't survive on any bowling pitch or with out tonnes of luck

 

[kron]

Sammy just realized his new found fame. He is enjoying it. I am sure he will mellow down soon. A couple of failures will slow down his celebrations.

I feel like a bumrah special is incoming.
A lesson to be learnt for Sam.

But he is a great talent.

You don't just ramp shot bumrah unless you are a quality player.

 

[Champ_Pal]

if jaiswal dint get out then india would have crossed 450 plus easy

Feel for Jaiswal. He was set for a hundred. With the way pitch played today, he could've scored a big daddy hundred.
