Jansen became only the 2nd player to record a 7fa inside 7 overs bowled.

With those scores, green pitch?

Doesn't look like it.
Pitch doing about as much as ticketing stewards for the match.

 

[Jatz]

That's got to improve the average a bit.

 

[Magma]

jansen got like 3 of his wickets directly after a no ball too.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Love this story every time I hear it.

Great turnaround from the Aussies to tie the series.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Happily one of the attendees. Going to be a massive day.

Australia have India on the ropes if they can enforce the follow on. Only problem being tomorrow’s weather is not looking good.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

This place is dead when the Aussies are tracking well.

Akash Deep, wow. That was an incredible escape from India there. Somehow they’ve still got a pulse in this match. When in all likelihood without the rain Australia probably would’ve won already.

Great result for India. Go in to Melbourne and Sydney knowing one win keeps the trophy. Any more washouts work for them as well.

Might be a blessing Australia didn’t get a chance to enforce the follow on though. More rain coming tomorrow and Cummins and Starc might’ve been working themselves in to the ground for no result.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Boxing day will be fun.

 

[Jatz]

Sydney will be rain impacted, it always is.

 

[glenferry23]

Lightning delay, don’t see that too often.

Brisbane the rain soaked shithole.
Probably need to go back to being the first test in the schedule.

 

[glenferry23]

Wild scenes here. What a collapse.

[Jatz]

Shameful batting.

I'd be dropping Khawaja for Konstas for the next test. Give him some exposure before the Ashes next year.

 

[glenferry23]

Trying to outdo each other with ridiculous shots to get out. Amazing stuff here.

Aside from Khawaja who was undone by the magnificent Bumrah. This is a hell of an implosion.

 

[99 Problems]

Have they got the math wrong? More rain coming but this is very chaseable if it doesn’t, especially down a bowler.

Yeah, not happening lol. The match is going to be a draw.

 

[Magma]

Yeah, not happening lol. The match is going to be a draw.

if they make it to 300 ahead or there is rain again it will. it's just disheartening that once again we collapse and we're not really under that much pressure
