Batting India out of the game here.

Just bowl well and we should be nicely placed to go 2-1 up to sydney.

And then all we need it to do here in Sydney is just piss down next week like it always does the week of the test match.

I keep saying every year the only week it generally rains badly in Sydney in Summer is always when the SCG test is on. Other then that we are generally pretty clear when it comes to Rain for the most part.
 
Sydney to Hobart will probably mandate helmets next year.
I've been smacked in the head sailing tiny pacers with much lighter booms and it hurts, let alone on a 50-60 ft yacht.
You can duck below the boom all you want but downwind in heavy seas it swings like an axe and all it takes is a badly timed wave to knock your head into its path. Terrible
 
Nice run out by the Aussies to get rid of Jaiswal. Jaiswal is a real talent for sure but often becomes a bit too cocky for his own good.

This test is shaping up as a great contest between two very good sides.
Nowhere near as cocky as young Konstas.

There's some peripheral stuff with the Indian team that would raise questions if it was the Australian team or any other touring team. Like this morning with Virat looking like he was giving a major team talk before play and dressed in a different top to the rest of the players. Rohit sometimes doesn't really seem like he's the captain. I don't know if he has always been a bit tubby but it adds to the demeanor that he lets other things happen eg: Virat walking over and bumping Konstas yesterday. And there's Ashwin suddenly retiring. Who retires on an overseas tour halfway through a series.
 
Kholi is really hurting his legacy.

A lot of Indians have turned in him and he has definitely lost his gloss to most Aussie fans.

I think he is really pissed as he comes to the end of his career and Siraj is definitely not a good sounding board to have around.

Whatever is bothering him he coming off as really petty.

King Kholi has become vi Rat King 👑
 
It seemed like Virat should have backed up his partner. I think if he did he would have made it or blocked Cummins being able to throw directly.

Actually think it would’ve been a run out at the bowlers end if Kohli had run through. Only thing would’ve been if the throw was accurate.

The ball was straight at Cummins and there was never a run there. Reminds me of Klusener and Donald choking in the 1999 World Cup semi. Was a terrible call of yes.

Having said that, everything Kohli did was wrong as well other than decide there wasn’t a run there.
