Well to be faire an average of 22 is not that bad when looked at in light of the low totals by both sides in this series so far.

PWM’s been on the phone to John so he already knows Marsh is making 39 in the second dig.

Passable. I would’ve expected a bit more contribution down the order, and hoped for a few more runs for the loss of four wickets.

We’ll have to take him regardless of how he looks. We’re a bit thin for quality batters.

I am well pleased with 4 for (very nearly) 300, and Smith’s idiosyncrasies do not perturb me.

“It is already Australia’s highest fifth-wicket Test partnership in India and comfortably the highest stand in the ongoing four-Test series. Smith’s class, Maxwell’s composure, India’s misfields and Virat Kohli’s shoulder injury have handed Australia the perfect platform to push for a victory that will ensure they retain the Border-Gavaskar trophy.”

Aye, it’s a good start. Still, it’s a funny old game.

You’ve done me a favour. For years I’ve wondered where the NQ word “scunt” came from, and now I see (in the OED) that is a past form of skin.

Scab duty was what we called the emu parade type punishment given for playing up in class or out in the playground. It often consisted of picking up 100 peices of rubbish and getting the teacher who was closely watching you to count in tens of how much you picked up. A lot of the time we used to get one big piece of rubbish and rip it into smaller pieces to make it look like we picked up more. Though if we were found out doing this we were ‘scunted’.

This will be an interesting look into Smith’s captaincy. Do Australia push for the win in the hope of securing the series now, risking going a match down, or do they eke out a draw and force India to go for a result in the final Test?

At the current run rate that’ll only take about 75 overs.

Yeah very probably. If they take a couple of wickets right now or early after tea, then it will be back on. It’s not a done deal.

Most likely.

But an Aussie collapse over a few overs could lead to an Indian win.
