Border Gavaskar Trophy 24/25 - India in Australia.

[Fenil]

Surprised Australia didn't declare. Maybe they are looking to confirm their berth in WTC final against South Africa but it also means that they are giving less importance to BGT which they have lost twice at home. I wonder they would have had same approach if it was Ashes and not BGT...

Rohit gone.

Is it his last time ? I better hope it is

 

[Bigby Wolf]

And there goes one of the players I backed to come good today - KLR.

Perhaps I was unrealistically positive about India's in that post.

India 2 down, 8 to go.

Last 10 overs: India 9/2.

Bizarre tactics from India. Not because they are playing for a draw but in the manner they are doing it. Scoring 1 an over neither helps the scoreboard nor the chances for a draw as eventually there will be an unplayable ball that would take a wicket. Surely 3 an over is doable and if we have wickets in hand in the last 30 odd over with 130-140 to get, we can try to press the paddle. At least make the other team think that we are equally competent and not here for a meek surrender.

Tbf, they havent really been given any chances to score tho

Told ya will chase one 4th-5th stump delivery.

If Rohit and Kohli dont retire after this test, India are doomed. Legends playing to be villains right now . Know your tweaking time and that is over. Double handedly holding the entire team behind.

India are doomed

Perhaps not yet - Sydney is going to be about as wet as Brisbane was, the weather people say.

But yeah, Sydney should definitely be Rohit's farewell, and probably also Virat's

I would rather see us lose in 3 days then see Virat and Rohit in this lineup. We dropped Pujara and Rahane for the same reason, let the selectors act fair and not hypocrite.

Jurel, Padikal, Abhimanyu, plenty of talent who ll do better then both of them.

Gill must play next test match

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

Squeezed the life out of Bumrah to give yourself a chance to win the test match with WTC on the line and the one senior batter can't get to double digits and the other will get out in the same manner he's been getting out in the last 3 years. Where's the accountability? Shameful.

If Pant gets going anything is possible here
