[Devadwal]

Wow Reddy. Back to back four

Another four . hattric of four now

 

[mb3407]

Reddy!

 

[followed]

I don't understand why they keep selecting Mitchell starc who has done nothing in test cricket for last 3-4 years.

He is finished at this level.Australia should Kick him out.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Jaiswal truly deserves the spotlight, but it's Kohli who will inevitably take center stage.

 

[Ab Fan]

Reddy and Washington…

We have all rounders for future

 

[mb3407]

Now Kohli too!

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Reddy looks ready for test cricket.

 

[followed]

Virat should get his hundred and then they should declare.

 

[Devadwal]

India’s spiritual father Travis Head can chase anything. Don’t get too comfortable.

Australia and Pakistan father's aka King Kohli is showing batting masterclass.
Are you enjoying it?

 

[Devadwal]

Reddy looks ready for test cricket.

by king

 

[mb3407]

India should not declare. Pitch is too flat.

 

[Ab Fan]

Reddy looks ready for test cricket.

Reddy bhai will win us a test series in Kiwi land

 

[RidiculousMan]

Will India be declaring today?

 

[Devadwal]

Bumrah is padded up. No sign of any declaration and rightly so .grind them into the dust .

Ind very boring robotic team with snakey fans..wouldn’t waste time watching them.

Watch how good CT25 will be without both of them.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bumrah seems interested to have a shot at the Aussie openers today itself.

Kohli needs to hurry up here. He doesn’t have a lot of time to get to the 100

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bumrah is padded up. No sign of any declaration and rightly so .grind them into the dust .

He took it off

 

[BouncerGuy]

Kohli nearing a century. Hang on

 

[Bhaijaan]

Virat 92*

Inching closer

 

[Nikhil_cric]

They’re understanding the dynamics of the 5 test series. It’s a long battle and you have to break the spirit of your opponent. You never know if we get such a golden opportunity in the next test. Make them suffer as much as possible now that we are on top.

This. Long series. It's about who breaks first mentally and physically. Not just about winning this 1 Test.

 

[Devadwal]

He took it off

Maybe waiting for Kohli century than . I hope they will not declare today . enough time left in this test

 

[Varun]

The only issue with batting tomorrow and cooking the bowlers is that there is a week until the next test. They can rest and recover.

 

[RahulBose]

For Pakistani fans who are used to watching a team that decides each day that they feel like playing to their potential or not

And deciding mostly that... Nah no mood today

Indian team would look robotic

It's called work ethics that you're mistaking for robotics

 

[Devadwal]

Ind very boring robotic team with snakey fans..wouldn’t waste time watching them.

Off topic but there will no champion trophy without india and king Kohli . Dum h to karke dikhao.
Now stick to this match and watch the king batting silently.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

The only issue with batting tomorrow and cooking the bowlers is that there is a week until the next test. They can rest and recover.

Still. This is the best we can do

 

[Devadwal]

@Nikhil_cric marnus is back to his slow spin bowling. They are already tired.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

@Nikhil_cric marnus is back to his slow spin bowling. They are already tired.

Yes. They are. But I'd just like to see them bat until lunch tomorrow. Maybe declare after 600/650 lead.

 

[Devadwal]

by Reddy

 

[RahulBose]

To Kangaroo

Bana ke dikhao ab...

 

[Devadwal]

Australia will never forget this epic phainta.

 

[Devadwal]

Kohli please don't Play any risky shot . enough time left

 

[Vikram1989]

This. Long series. It's about who breaks first mentally and physically. Not just about winning this 1 Test.

In 2008 bgt at mohali(second test),msd set a target around 550 to create the same effect.ishant wrecked the havoc .

 

[Devadwal]

What was that?

 

[gani999]

Yes. They are. But I'd just like to see them bat until lunch tomorrow. Maybe declare after 600/650 lead.

They will most likely declare after Virat gets his 100 and Reddy his 50.

 

[Varun]

What is the hurry with the declaration.

Just do it tomorrow.

All social media pressure these days.

 

[sindhiboy]

Wonder why Kohli moved to the UK. Australia is clearly his home.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

What is the hurry with the declaration.

Just do it tomorrow.

All social media pressure these days.

Yeah. Bat until lunch tomorrow and then declare. I don't understand this hurry at all.

 

[Varun]

Wonder why Kohli moved to the UK. Australia is clearly his home.

Anushka runs his life these days.

 

[Devadwal]

Yeah. Bat until lunch tomorrow and then declare. I don't understand this hurry at all.

Or just bat for two over tomorrow to mentality torture them.

 

[Devadwal]

King is back .

Excellent century .

Take the haters

 

[mb3407]

Happy to be proven wrong by Kohli! Hope this continues this series.

 

[gani999]

100 for the king. Thought I would never see him score big again. So good to see him among the runs.

 

[Ab Fan]

lol what is this Kohli doing on field?

 

[kingusama92]

Good innings from Kohli

Smart declaration too, there is no way this total is being chased. Might be able to nick a wicket before the session is done this way.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Mammoth score for Australia to chase

Day 3: Innings Break - India lead by 533 runs
AUS 104
IND 150 & 487/6 d (134.3) CRR: 3.62

 

[Devadwal]

India declared. Damn i wanted king to smashed theses Aussies

 

[gani999]

Rather cruel of Bumrah not to wait for Reddy to get his 50 on debut. They could have declared at the end of play today.

 

[Devadwal]

Bumrah is behind this early declaration . I'm not agree at all .

 

[volcyz]

Babar Azam's "This too shall pass" proven right again

KING KOHLIIIIIIIIIIII

 

[volcyz]

Bumrah is behind this early declaration . I'm not agree at all .

Super good declaration

Australia is mentally disintegrated!

 

[Rajdeep]

There was a time when Kohli used to abuse in rage after getting a hundred. Now is he softly smiling and giving flying kiss.

This shows how soft he has become as a cricketer

 

[Kaptan]

The OG king is back.

 

[Ab Fan]

King is back .

Excellent century .

Take the haters

More than one flying kiss shouldn’t be allowed on field.

 

[followed]

This pitch is not that bad as australia has made it by bowling awfully.

 

[volcyz]

King Kohli reaching his new peak soon like Lara near the end of his career

 

[Bhaijaan]

Congratulations Virat Kohli. Long live the King

Wow if that happens, we would all be grateful.
Let the Gods be kind to this man, he’s been a great servant of Bharatiya cricket.

 

[followed]

Good to see Virat scoring a century. He should play for 3-4 years more.

 

[gani999]

Bumrah is behind this early declaration . I'm not agree at all .

Agreed. They should have at least batted out till the end of play. Very sad that they denied the debutant his 50. He was only 12 runs away. It would have meant so much for him.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Where was this spin before.

[SpiritOf1903]

I don't think Aus will recover from this. Could be an Indian brownwash

 

[Bhaijaan]

Visiting batters with most Test hundreds in Australia
9 - Jack Hobbs
7 - Wally Hammond
7 - Virat Kohli
6 - Herbert Sutcliffe
6 - Sachin Tendulkar
This is Kohli’s 10th hundred across formats in Australia, the most by a visiting batter.

 

[Rajdeep]

This pitch is not that bad as australia has made it by bowling awfully.

Only Australia bowl poorly and Indians didnt bat well?

I have never seen you giving credit to Bhartiya players. Why?

 

[BouncerGuy]

Some records for India

Highest improvement from 1st inns to 2nd for India in away Tests
346 - 164 & 510 - vs ENG, Headingley, 1967
337 - 150 & 487/6d vs AUS, Perth (Optus), 2024
323 - 136 & 459 - vs SA, Centurion, 2010
294 - 175 & 469/7 - vs WI, Port of Spain, 1983
280 - 241 & 521/6d - vs WI, St. John’s, 2006

 

[Devadwal]

I can't express my happiness when king scored a hundred.

All the haters are hiding now.

 

[Josh]

If you saw Australia bowling the negative lines they were towards the end, they didn't want to bat today by denying Kohli a century today or till the last remaining few overs

Lol when did I say that india didn't bat well?

India obviously batted beautifully but bowlers like starc should not be playing test cricket he is done at this level and he has been awful for past 3-4 years.

In addition to that pat Cummins was very very average in this test very unlike him.

India has found the formula to beat australia in australia and they are the best touring team in australia.

 

[Red-Indian]

BOOM!

 

[Rajdeep]

McSweeney gone....Boom

 

[followed]

Lol see this. Australia bowled very badly. India will get them under 200 or maybe 250

 

[Devadwal]

Haha overhyped player by wannabe fans is gone.

@Devadwal
I was told mcsweeney would brutally destroy india?

Where is the chirping now?

And also its one thing to score vs Mukku kumar. Another thing vs harshit and bumrah

Starc pre sandpaper gate was lethal. However, since then he's been a mix bag.

 

[kron]

Haha overhyped player by wannabe fans is gone.

But I was told by a guy here he will brutally trash india?

 

[Savak]

Australia needs to press the panic button and do something different with their bowling attack. Starc, Hazelwood, Cummins, Lyon have failed against India in Australia in test matches for the last 6 years in three different test series, If Australia lost one Ashes series at home, there would be wholesale changes.

You cannot keep going back to the same bowlers and expect completely different results. Get some fresh new unscarred bowlers and see what they can do

Cummins has been short of his best for nearly 2 years now. It's not just this Test.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Chasing 533 and you lost 1st wicket on the 4th ball,,,LOL

Why couldn't bumrah be born in Pakistan yaar
