Re: India Vs Australia,Third Test @ Melbourne
If india wants to win , why declaration wait? why debating when Aussies will declare
never leave your fate to others...take control, set very very aggressive field, get those 3 wickets as early as you can and get to bat. dhoni has set field to save singles and boundaries not to take wickets. he is waiting for smith to declare. WRONG approach

I agree. Dhoni probably doesn't have confidence in his batsmen .
I don't have confidence in the umpires.
Re: India Vs Australia,Third Test @ Melbourne
Umesh Yadav and Swamy bowled well today. The run out was one positive for the day for India. In that over, Marsh looked as tentative as Eknath Solkar did in the nervous nineties on his way to his only hundred.
Re: India Vs Australia,Third Test @ Melbourne
Yeah.. close to 400, but not over 400. I don't think any team has chased down 400 in the 4th inning to win a match. But I see what Jack Sparrow means. If the total is too big, the Indians might just decide to play for a draw.
India did. Gundappa Vishwanath leading the way. Against the mighty West Indies. Way back I believe in 1976. Against Holding et al. In the West Indies.

India in trouble....vijay given out wrong LBW.........................terrible terrible decision!
another slap on indians for not using DRS...they could have reversed this one easily. this was NOT OUT by miles.

But PD the point is why do ALL bad decisions go against India. Granted india should use drs. But that is no excuse for this one sided.bad decisions throughout this series.
Rahane also given out lbw in 1st inning

that i dont know uncle.... there are few that went your way as well..when indian batters were out but were given not out but overall yes you guys got many bad decisions throughout the series. maybe ICC wants india to accept DRS

Of course a few went our way. Mostly lbws. But those few went Aussie way also. In 1st test if I recall there were no LBWS given. I call those 50 50 decisions that went our way. Just as they did Aussie way
But in terms of blatantly bad decisions, this is getting old.
Nice shot kohli

bad luck....but this is not intentional. these are neutral umpires
Re: India Vs Australia,Third Test @ Melbourne

I understand that. Can't be just bad luck and coincidence, IMO.
Also when players from both sides KNOW that poor decisions will go one way ALL the time and close decisions will mostly go one way, the team that gets the good decision will play more confidently. And reverse for the other team. That is an intangible that must surely be in play.
Re: India Vs Australia,Third Test @ Melbourne
Southie turned into AP of Cricketnama :D
Re: India Vs Australia,Third Test @ Melbourne
With this number of dropped catches by aussies batsmen, the indian batsmen should score double centry by the end.
As much as I hate Kohli, I must say he's turning into one of the best.
As Ian chappel said yesterday that right now India is producing batsmen with the best techniques

I stand corrected. They chased 406 in the last innings and won. South Africa went 414 against Australia and won. Still a difficult task for Indians.

I hate all disrespectful, abusive batsmen.. bowlers are exception

I know Istiri means wife... one thing I learnt from umar sharif
Re: India Vs Australia,Third Test @ Melbourne
Kohli gave a lollypop catch..
