What's new

India end Day 4 on 98/2, needing 309 runs to win the 3rd Test against Australia

Disgusting pathetic crowd aussies are absolute pigs this is so sad his father just passed away too
 
Not looking good this...some more racist abuse to players in boundary. Game has stopped for now.
 
He will hit Bumrah too instead of making fun of Siraj be more concerned that he’s getting abused constantly how do u expect him to bowl well

I'm making fun of Green who has gone missing in the previous games. Now that Aus have a massive cushion and Siraj's pace is down, he's playing showoffy shots :rabada2
 
That's quite poor. The game should go on. You are not going to stop the match to investigate what's happening. The investigation will be done after by the police.

Pretty sure Indian are diliberately loosing time.

Nah bro whatever it is this is just and pathetic India should boycott this **** this is pathetic
 
I am not watching the game, just read the racism against my fellow brothers. It's not cool Aussies, show them no mercy Pujara and score 20 of 300 balls and make them sweat :misbah
 
Is there really a need to stop the game for 5+ minutes because some random guys said something you don't like? Ridiculous.

I disagree. If we do that, they will moan that we are running scared. We can't control them. We should just aim to play the best we can.

Btw, it's not just Siraj. The complaint yesterday included Bumrah.

Poor Bumrah getting thrashed from a rookie huh
 
:)) got him. This baby will be dancing around Indian bowlers when the heat is on in the next match and will be doing the Melbourne shuffle if he makes it to India.

Lets c.....but if he somehow bowls better in future.....I would say we may see new cross border rivalry of Jamienson-Green after previous cross border rivalry of Kapil-Imran.........
I thought Paine is tall....but this Green made him looked shorter
 
Siraj needs to up his pace if he is to have ptolonged success in test cricket.
Should be bowling quicker at his age.

Man have some Shame that isn’t the point what happened with siraj and bumrah is what I was discussing and here ur celebrating a pointless wicket after a 21 year old thrashed you

He is definitely riding on some smoke.....or.....

He can have seen him bowl in high 140s...in IPL..

but then that's 4 overs against 20 overs in tests
 
In modern tests u can't be defensive totally.....Aus suffered in MCG showing no intent.....and then Ind suffered here in first innings consuming maidens after maidens......
 
Siraj been a terrific find for India. Bowls long spell on that nagging length. He will be even more dangerous with SG and Dukes. Our fast bowling resources :

Ishant
Shami
Bumrah
Bhuvi
Umesh
Siraj
Saini

You have completely lost it to celebrate this wicket the way you are doing it.

His captain gave him the ball yesterday just before the new ball. Doesn't inspire much confidence.

If he actually plays well in meaningful situations, why wouldn't anyone credit him and praise him? That includes me.
 
Earlier Aussie crowds ans their bowlers would eat this team alive with or without kohli bumrah
 
What a coward captain; they hav plenty of runs why not declare?

Nothing cowardly about it.
It's not about runs, it's more about the number of overs they need to bowl India out.

Still 130+ overs left.
I think, Paine backs his team to dismiss India under 120 overs so till then he will continue to tire out the Indian bowlers.

He can improve his bowling in fact he can bowl better and can be similarly menacing like that of Jamienson....both are very tall......and height is an advantage in livelier pitches....so he can be better....showed his resilience and then the power game today
 
Have some shame .game is not bigger than self-respect for me ,but i get your point

I don't defend racism, but people need to understand that there will always be bad in the world, you need to be able to have skin thick enough to where most of the benign stuff like this should not affect you. What happened to 'sticks and stones may break my bones but words shall never hurt me"?

Siraj surprised me with his performance ....it's was very amazing ...that not expected from him......hope he will learn and improve further......today was just a normal day for ny overseas bowler in Australia.....it was quite common in 2000s....though

He will learn after few overseas tour.....couple of australia tour is enough to learn it....

Said it earlier past Aussie crowds and their bowlers would eat up this team with or without Kohli Bumrah

I said the same when Archer complained over a year ago about a similar thing. If you can't even take some words from a random guy in the crowd, I'm afraid you won't be able to perform much under pressure, and on tough tours.

Yes ......bang on....just imagine tall McGrath sledging u ......Ponting throwing his body to stop ur drives.....Warne giving u a wild smile.... It's not easy at international level and esp on foreign tours
 
Rohit + Gill playing like we have a 200 run lead :)) That's the spirit my boys.

But several inside, outside edges already. These two should have a 250 run partnership for any chance that the Aussie bowlers lose their minds and our middle order can then survive.

Pant can later come in and smash the winning runs.

:bhajji
 
Tough but I want em to chase it.

Asad Shafiq blue balling us with a nearly win hundred yet again last tour chasing 400+, I want at least one Asian team to do it.

Avenge us brothers. #AsianBloc
 
Man we really needed Kohli for this type of situation ( Racial abuse)

Can’t believe people were crapping on Kohli saying he should be more mature...

Sure you can say that, but sometimes you just need to pop the finger and focus back on the match.
 
This is a normal kind of situation Aussie crowds are known for this only.......

This is not an Australia only problem now is it.
An Australian photographer captured several images of monkey taunting from the crowd, providing for the first time evidence of Symonds's earlier claims. A racist thread has weaved its way through the latter stages of this series, and any further attempts by the BCCI to bury heads in the sand will presumably be met with scorn by the International Cricket Council.

Several Indian media outlets have gone to great lengths this week to explain that monkey chants in Indian cricket, unlike in European football, are not intended to be racially derogative. However, the fact that sections of the Mumbai crowd engaged in monkey taunts on Wednesday - after the Australians outlined their belief that the chants in Vadodara were racially motivated - suggests such reports are erroneous.
 
Rohit will be fine so long as the runs are flowing. The moment they find a way to stifle him like they did in the 1st innings, he will play a break-out shot. Can't fight it out like Kohli. But that's why he's at the top. Like the beastly Sehwag :viv
 
Leave the racism discussions out of this thread

We have a separate thread for that.

Expect Rohit to throw away this start again. He's looking so composed at the crease that it's a danger sign.
 
These two are doing well. And a great boundary by Rohit

I think he’ll survive today but get out early tomm after having to set himself again
 
1/3 odds offered on an Aussie victory here - pretty decent knowing that it is almost an inevitability they would polish off this Kohli less, 9 batsman (jadeja won't bat) team before tea tomorrow
 
Rohit Sharma is a pleasure to watch when he’s playing his shots
 
This thread is unnaturally quiet barring sporting Pakistanis.

Where are my Indian brothers. You here only for the victory lap? :rabada2

Meanwhile Rohit :aag
 
Think AUS declared 50 runs early.

Maybe the pitch is breaking? If Lyon isn’t turning square then this seems a very stupid and somehwat arrogant decision.
 
Paine made the decision to declare under the impression that Jadeja won't be batting. 400 plus is more than enough runs, they'll have to bowl quite badly to lose from here.
 
Gill reviewed immediately. Might be not out
 
Looks like India is going to take a shot at glory.
This effort and intention is commendable. Unlike Misbahesque style where the mindset would be to block block block block block till you lose.
