India's tour of Australia - January 2016

Just when things were looking brilliant, this happens. Loving this attitude though. Got nothing to lose, just go out and express yourselves. Dhawan looks solid too. I have a good feeling of this match despite conceding 348.
 
If anyone is looking for pointers on what kind of a wicket this is, then they only need to look at the Umpires. This is the only game I recall where an Umpire has spent the bulk of the day wearing a helmet and the other umpire has retired hurt.
 
Please, no one tell anything about performance. Else you will jinx it !!
 
These are some really poor cricket wickets in this series. Look at the ease with which runs have come. Had this been in India or the UAE, we would be harping about the poor quality of the tracks. The wickets during the World Cup at least had something for the bowlers but these tracks have added to the woes of an already poor bowling attack on both sides. Looking at this ODI, I feel that chasing in this series has been a huge advantage. India have gone harder during the chase because they exactly knew what to get and there is no reason to believe they would`nt have done that at other venues.

I have been a real basher of flat subcontinent ODI tracks but at least those tracks deteriorate and get slower as the ball gets old. These tracks offer no challenge at all.
 
Looking pretty easy for india from here. Should win easily.

As for the wickets don't have problem with these type of wickets for odi's and t20's.

Why have bowlers then?
 
MSD almost looked like he wanted to get out and put kohli in on a trial to finish! Except the apprentice is back in the pavilion!

Honestly there is a bit of truth in playing for runs though especially the way dhawan didn't care after getting a century!


rahane something like split webbing while fielding
 
I would understand if this was some exceptional bowling burst like wahab riaz did in WC but to half volleys :facepalm and half a$$ed batting after all that work!

WE do know how to snatch defeat form the Jaws of victory!


Hope at least Sirji keeps his head on the shoulders!


Might have as well sent in rahanae first instead of the circus display!
