What's new

India end Day 1 of the 2nd Test on 36/1 after bowling out Australia for 195

[MENTION=132916]Junaids[/MENTION], boss I hope you are watching what a quality spinner can do on first morning of a Test match in SENA.
 
Why no Siraj yet? Hope they give the new bowl to Siraj next time onwards. Umesh basically sprays on leg and swing it to middle leg and gets whacked at econ of 4.
 
Sorry jaddu bhai - Pant

Lol whats this sorry ** by these players. Rahane saying sorry to Kohli, Pant saying it to Jaddu :inti
 
Wah wah. During an era riddled with racism and segregation they beat teams that weren't even allowed to participate due the colour of their skin.

Well done man. Well done. Good ya Aussies.

Anything before 80s don't mean squat.

Cricket has a 150 year old history not 40 year.

I don't give a damn. How about that. Pre 80s don't matter to me. Different era. Different rules. Different everything. Hell pre 90s was totally different too.

You talk about current era. That's what matters.

I don't care about pre historic stats during racist segregation era.
 
India's bowling lineup without two main bowlers is better than any other bowling lineup in the world bar aus.

Let's not go that far yea lol. They are good but India's front line bowlers are much much better.

Bumrah
Shami
Ishan
Bhuvi
Ashwin


Now that's a top tier attack. I still haven't seen India play all 5. It's such a shame.

Our batting in Sena is poor though.
 
Ashwin really bowling nicely this tour. Great improvement from him. Kudos.

Bumrah put in a quality 1st & 2nd spell.

Yadav is a bit of a brainless bowler really. He needs to be bowling 5kph quicker to get away with it out here.

I haven't seen much of Siraj before- he'll need to support well. Looks handy from his first couple of overs. How does he get his wickets usually?
 
Yeap SIRAJ sucks atm. Perfect time for Aus to build a partnership and take it away from India
 
Game now slowly slipping away from the Indians. Jadeja's bowling did not click and India effectively now only have 2 bowlers. Wouldn't surprise me if one of these 2 at the crease goes onto get a big 100. All out for 480 and Indians will end the end at 120-5 starring at innings defeat

Jadeja has just bowled 4 overs.
Secondly, no one was expecting him to take wickets in the first innings.He will be handy in the third innings.
 
In last few years, Australian Test wicket became quite batting friendly but I think now it’s back to the old days of Aussie tracks. Also, I see what Aussies have done here - they have produced “result” wickets so that no game ends in draw and if all four Tests end in direct W/L, it’s almost certain to end 4-0

270 will be an achievement for Australia. Expecting this to be sub 300 scores test match
 
India have grip on the game here , a couple of more wickets here , India can keep them down to 220 .
 
India can't relax, Aussie real batting actually start now. Their top 4 put 130 bottom 6 can easily put 170, and 300 is max India can allow Australia, otherwise say goodbye to this test and series.
 
Umesh has been a let down. Shami or Ishant at the other end and Aus would have been 120/7 by now.

Think a mere 250 is more than enough for Aussies to take a healthy 1st innings lead and bat India out of the game in the second.

Exactly. I don’t expect India to chase anything over 200 on this pitch against Lyon while batting 4th.
 
Rahanes field placements have gotten the wickets of smith and labuschagne. Almost as good as Williamson in field placements.

Maybe rahane should have been test captain after all. Just needs to score some runs first.
 
I have zero expectations from this game, but really good to see Ashwin and Bumrah doing well.
 
Paine run out but not given out. Bat on the line. Looks like Aussie 3rd umpire came to play for australia
 
Game looks like even, but I think Aussies are well ahead as they are batting first. Nevertheless, a brilliant bowling effort so far.
 
India right on top in the first innings again really. Even 1 wicket before the new ball is a very strong position for them. Whereas Oz will need a huge effort just to get back in the game by still being 5 down when 80 overs arrives.
 
India playing really welll. Well done.

Most competitive touring side in Australia after South Africa
