[Zevon]

Head is going to try and finish it within 3 overs

Knows we all have to go to bed. There’s nothing the man can’t do, now he’s setting out to get us half an hour’s extra sleep

Where is Soggy2112 ?

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Rohit hasn't tried anything and he's all out of ideas. No field changes, no part timer.

Last game as Indian captain I’d imagine

 

[Coolangatta]

Gonna finish early cause of Head

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

Head has been huge but must be disciplined enough to ensure he gets us home, don’t leave it for someone else !

Yep, needs to bring it home. He's in, don't rush it and make it someone else's problem.

 

[kickazz]

Can't have the commentary on, what is the dew situation?

Even if it is there, I'll take that luck but our bowling and fielding in particular really set us up.

 

[The Passenger]

We're solid outsiders, but unless we * up a tap-in victory I'm just gonna enjoy the ride.

Well this is a tap-in victory from here.

Even I'll meltdown if we lose from here.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Suicide single for the century but he got there! Magnificent innings Head

Turned half a run into a single…

 

[Santana]

Knows we all have to go to bed. There’s nothing the man can’t do, now he’s setting out to get us half an hour’s extra sleep

Head to become PM for today and call a national holiday too

 

[Sleutheren]

I'm going to be ratshit at work tomorrow.

 

[Whiskers]

The catch along with the ton is brilliant. Now please stay until the end, job isn’t done.
Only bad thing was the run to get to 100 but what a match by him.

 

[Magma]

quick put on a light show

From Indian Cricket Reddit:

"Before i swear off reddit or any other social media for the next few months...

I would like to put something off my chest

Dear Kohli, shove that 50th century up your butt

Dear shami, shove those 50 world cup wickets where sun doesn't shine

And Mr. Selfless captain Rohit, please quit playing cricket your self blowing fat ass"

We're going to need an Indian cricket reddit thread if Australia see this through and win this final.

 

[Corrupt_]

So where is the public holiday? Is the media allowed to report on alternative sports like cricket or does only the matildas matter?

 

[kickazz]

******* hell there are more Aussie bands than just ACDC.

Yeah roll out some TISM

 

[Lyttelton Ranger]

Jadeja surprisingly docile, even in these conditions

 

[010203]

Has passed Gilchrist's innings imo

And Punter from 2003 dare I say it.

 

[Southerntakeover]

Mark Taylor hitting the panic button in the studio. Uh, mate...

 

[Zevon]

Jadeja out for single figures and then going wicketless with the ball. After tormenting Australia time after time you love to see it.

 

[1990crow]

Has there been an upswell of support across the nation?
Stupid comment.

 

[MarcusP2]

Omg a highlight package of Indian excuses!!

 

[Magma]

lol the excuses coming hard and fast on comms. maybe he should learn to play 'his shot' a bit better than a 10 year old with no arms.

 

[Richard Pryor]

"This is not me trying to take credit away from Australia".

 

[Moonwatcher]

Sharma would have batted so the toss didn't affect the match.
