Unbeaten 89 by Pant helps India to a 3-wicket win over Australia in 4th Test, India win series 2-1

[Nikhil_cric]

I hardly think so......this is not the same Aussies....

Yeah sure.

 

[therealAB]

Headingley all over again

 

[Nadeemp]

I know Cummins has better stats than McGrath. But he ain’t no McGrath.

 

[dildilpak]

Best series ever... Totally David vs Goliath! Good luck to Indians, we are rooting for you

 

[Colorblind Genius]

Yes, its their fortress. That's why paine sledged ashwin that the next match is at gabba.

And Ashwin replied, come to play in India and that will be the end of your career.

 

[Snowflake]

Great series win coming up....could have been 3 nil TO INDIA....LOL...Aussies u only better play IPL

How? They held on to a draw by the barest of margins in the last game

 

[Nadeemp]

This will go to the wire. What a series. Big up to India

 

[therealAB]

Pray for Adelaide 2014-15

 

[Mercurial]

Would have been great for the aussies.

Did you watch the 1st test?

No, I didn't, but his First Class stats are better than Agarwal.

 

[TNAmarkFromIndia]

Pant should play as a pure batsman in tests if he can't improve his Wicketkeeping. In ODIs and T20s he can probably continue to be WK/bat

Won't be a bad idea. Just looking at the way Paine kept the fielders in the deep when Pant came in when it's Australia that needs the win more than India. No other batsman in our middle order has that effect on the opposition.

 

[therealAB]

Lyon has to stand up. The most likely to get Pant's wicket

 

[Khan12]

How? They held on to a draw by the barest of margins in the last game

Which they could have won if vahiri was fit.

 

[andy0204]

Aussies bowlers don't know how to bowled out the big teams while chasing, something which we saw in last test and Headingley.

 

[therealAB]

No, I didn't, but his First Class stats are better than Agarwal.

Well then you can't comment. Looked totally inept

 

[Devadwal]

Australia slowing down game

 

[Justcrazy]

Australia likely to resort to negative bowling soon here

 

[therealAB]

gg

 

[Mercurial]

Well then you can't comment. Looked totally inept

1 Test match doesn't tell you a complete story.

 

[Hitman]

Boundary for Pant.

 

[Nadeemp]

Aussies wasting time

 

[MP2011]

4 more.

 

[therealAB]

Australia slowing down game

Doesn't make any difference, still need 15 overs

 

[jnaveen1980]

Real nail biter

 

[Junaids]

This wil be biggest Indian series win ever

Bigger than that even - it is arguably up with Pakistan in the West Indies in 87-88, except obviously these Aussies are a weaker opponent.

 

[therealAB]

1 Test match doesn't tell you a complete story.

If I played test cricket, you could tell in one test that I wasn't up to it
Same with Shaw

Got talent but needs a technical makeover

 

[Mercurial]

Pant should control his inner Afridi. This can be chased down with proper cricketing shots.

 

[Justcrazy]

Four

Pant gets that away , sensational player

 

[therealAB]

Bigger than that even - it is arguably up with Pakistan in the West Indies in 87-88, except obviously these Aussies are a weaker opponent.

And India might actually win, unlike Pakistan

 

[MP2011]

63 off 84.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Indian batsmen need to keep calm here and they will pick these runs off

 

[Nadeemp]

Statistics are like mini-skirts .. they give you good ideas but hide the most important parts."

 

[TNAmarkFromIndia]

This partnership: 37 runs, 5.4 ov (RR: 6.34)

 

[Devadwal]

Doesn't make any difference, still need 15 overs

Last hour

 

[angrypathan]

Bigger than that even - it is arguably up with Pakistan in the West Indies in 87-88, except obviously these Aussies are a weaker opponent.

This Aussie side may be weaker, but this Indian side is literally playing with less than half of their first choice XI. A win here would be the one of the greatest test series performances ever

 

[Justcrazy]

Pant should control his inner Afridi. This can be chased down proper cricketing shots.

Pant should be left alone , let him play the way he wants , he will still win 3 - 4 games in every 10 innings

 

[Justcrazy]

This Aussie side may be weaker, but this Indian side is literally playing with less than half of their first choice XI. A win here would be the one of the greatest test series performances ever

Not one of , but the greatest ever win

 

[angrypathan]

Lol that was such a forced appeal by Paine. What a dumb review

 

[Devadwal]

I think gone

 

[therealAB]

Nowhere near it for me

 

[Shafi]

Babar Azam should observe Pant to learn : 1. How to stay longer in wicket 2. how to play responsible innings and 3. How to play faster when needed 4 How to score big

 

[Colorblind Genius]

“Everybody is watching this game thru the prism of their own insecurities”

What in the world is wrong with Harsha Bogle!

 

[Devadwal]

Aussies look desperate. Watch those pockets

 

[Nadeemp]

Ooooh mo

 

[MP2011]

Not out.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Bigger than that even - it is arguably up with Pakistan in the West Indies in 87-88, except obviously these Aussies are a weaker opponent.

yep. let's just conveniently forget that the match Pakistan won had no Viv or Marshall and were playing a rookie bowling attack

 

[therealAB]

Babar Azam should observe Pant to learn : 1. How to stay longer in wicket 2. how to play responsible innings and 3. How to play faster when needed 4 How to score big

What. Just different players.
Babar is a player to build a team around
For Pakistan, who is much weaker a consistent player like Babar is a must

 

[angrypathan]

Gone Thanks Mayank

 

[Devadwal]

You idiot

 

[Justcrazy]

Australia desperate now, big appeal, review but no substance

 

[jiduguravindra]

“Everybody is watching this game thru the prism of their own insecurities”

What in the world is wrong with Harsha Bogle!

He is talking utter nonsense from past one week even worse than shane warne.

 

[therealAB]

Cummins is a legend
4-38. Singlehandedly kept Aussies in the game

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Aussies look desperate. Watch those pockets

Host broadcaster won't look much at host team

 

[MP2011]

Mayank gone.

 

[Junaids]

Really good chase by India. Except now they only need singles, not boundaries.

Remember, they lost at Sydney from a similar position in 2007-08. The Monkeygate scandal distracted people from what a cowardly capitulation that was.

This team has no Tendulkar or Dravid or Dhoni or Laxman or Kumble.

But they are far stronger mentally. And the team is more than the sum of the parts.

 

[Snowflake]

Which they could have won if vahiri was fit.

What if Paine had held on to catches? No ifs and buts in cricket.

 

[Belawal2014]

Aussie cheats.

 

[dildilpak]

Mayank you idiot!

 

[Nadeemp]

Cummins!!!!!

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Damn. What a match.

 

[Mercurial]

This is poor from Agarwal.

 

[MP2011]

Pathetic from Mayank. Have been his biggest supporter but this is poor from him.

 

[andy0204]

Cummins should be the man of the series regardless of the results,he gave everything he had,This guy is a treasure.

 

[Nadeemp]

Terrible shot

 

[Last Monetarist]

India will shut up shop now and settle for the draw. Won't take any risks.

 

[angrypathan]

Cummins is a legend
4-38. Singlehandedly kept Aussies in the game

True successor to Steyn to become the best fast bowler of his generation. Hope he does well in India on his next tour

 

[Devadwal]

Game over

 

[Mercurial]

Should send in Thakur for pinch hitting and preserve Sundar.

 

[Justcrazy]

Cummins gets Agarwal !

Australia needs a hattrick here

 

[therealAB]

If they picked Kuldeep like some suggested I would be confident but Washington is class

 

[Hyperion66]

Man Agarwal is horribly out of form and confidence.

 

[Junaids]

Why are they playing big shots?

Ones and twos would get India home.

 

[therealAB]

Very solid there

 

[Ab Fan]

Its Rishabh Pant vs Pat Cummins that will decide the game IMO.

 

[Third Man]

What a terrible shot that was!

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

India will shut up shop now and settle for the draw. Won't take any risks.

India deserve to win this match.

 

[therealAB]

Why are they playing big shots?

Ones and twos would get India home.

Not 5 an over. Field isn't spread enough vs Cummins to milk at that rate

 

[wrongun]

True successor to Steyn to become the best fast bowler of his generation. Hope he does well in India on his next tour

My father says it's like watching Lillee all over again. So similar in style, size, skills, speed & spirit.

 

[MP2011]

5 RPO needed.

 

[angrypathan]

It's probably now time to bring in Starc to rough up Sundar

 

[Justcrazy]

Aussies need their bowlers to hit the timber here , a couple of more wickets here will spice up the things
