Carnage from Pandya and Jaddu.. almost 100 runs in the last 7 overs. I felt like i was watching another IPL game, doesn't matter they win or lose from here but last 7 overs were totally worth it.

It was a good entertainment in the end, if not Australia would have reached the total without much struggle Wink

. I was expecting India to post a huge total when they won the toss but they failed to do that but to build the score from 5 for 152 runs to reach 302 runs is a huge achievement.

This man is giving Sachin the chills since he is probably going to reach 13K and beyond runs in the near future. Even though India are losing badly and even if Smith is right behind him, he still continues to be the best Cricket batsman at present thanks to his consistency.

Sachin, Lara and other greats of the past were scoring runs when the average ODI score was 250 runs and now above 300 runs is not a competitive score.

it looks like they can't score more than 290 runs. I don't think India will be able to win the match against Australia if they target less than 320 runs.

India will not be able to score 320 runs today. They might do 260. They have scored only 230 runs in 45 overs. They are already lost 5 wickets. I think they will target Australia in 260 runs.

Hide your face Indian fans Tongue

Clean sweep coming soon.

Pitches are flat and its always hard to chase big target. Let's bat first and will score 300+ runs, easy peasy. lol

Hahaha. You are right. Indian fans can no longer be found today. They will lose the series badly and be whitewashed. Feeling bad for those who are betting on India team today.

What to say? Kohli won the toss after a long time and even then the Indian team couldn't make use of it. Youngsters such as Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer got good start, but they failed to convert it to good scores. The least they could do was to give support for Kohli, and they failed to do that as well. India may end up with 260-270 and it is going to be yet another cakewalk for the Australians.

India have batted later in the last two matches, and lost the matches in pursuit of the huge run target. So India decided to bat after winning the toss today. At the end of 26 overs, they lost 4 and collected only 125 runs. Before starting the match, I thought they would score more than 340 runs. Now it looks like they can't score more than 290 runs. I don't think India will be able to win the match against Australia if they target less than 320 runs. However, I bet on Australia. Hopefully I will win the bet.

India did the right thing by selecting Natarajan. Saini was given two chances and he failed to make use of them. Also, dropping Chahal and selecting Kuldeep Yadav as the spinner was another move in the right direction. Chahal failed to make any impact during the previous matches and there is nothing wrong in trying some left-arm wrist spin against the Australians.

@bryant.coleman I’m not at all surprised by their changes as there’s nothing to lose for team India, but if their experiments work then they’ll have new player’s in their starting 11. Furthermore it seems that Indian batsmen have played it slow and safe, as they have currently scored 76 runs with a loss of a wicket, but in my personal opinion they’ll need to score at least 380+ runs to salvage something from this match.

ICC should introduce one proposal. Give cricket board option of choosing Limited over cricket (T-20/ODI) or Tests or everything (T-20/ODI + Tests). and ICC should stop romanticize with the Red ball cricket and face the reality, they could save tons of money and by doing so they could finance more countries to adopt T-20/ODI.

I agree. Red ball cricket is not compatible with 21st century. During the good old days, cricket fans had plenty of time, and they could spend 5 days continuously to watch the test matches. But now no one is having that much time. The time and effort spent on playing test matches could be better spent on playing more T20I or ODI matches. Everyone will benefit. The players will benefit in the form of decreased workload and the boards will benefit in terms of increased revenues.

But we shouldn't expect much from the ICC, for them proposals like this are blasphemous act.

-----
Anyway 3rd ODI aka Dead rubber game is in progress. Australia resting their premiere bowlers Cummins-Starc, no Warner due to injury. Will didn't get his maiden cap but Cameron Green got one. From Indian side Natarajan earned his cap.

Edit: Here we go.. Bye bye Dhawan Grin

Is anyone else thinking that this series Aus vs Ind getting too friendly?
Players patting each others on back, joking around even after getting hit, rubbing belly (KL-Smith). IPL hijacking the old rivalry.

Within the next few years, cricket will resemble more like football and club (franchise) cricket will be the first priority for the players, as well as for the boards. Already we are witnessing the trend of players resigning from the international cricket, so that they could concentrate more on the franchise leagues. And this will have a negative impact on the smaller boards.

As far as I know, Rohit Sharma is out of the team now for his personal needs.
I agree with Aakash Chopra. India team need Rohit Sharma to score over 350 runs. Rohit Sharma is also needed for batting for chasing a big target. Because Rohit Sharma can stay at the crease for a long time and bring a big collection for the team. what do you think?

The ICC should make some rules now. For example, a player can play in the franchise league for a certain period of time after retiring from international cricket. There should also be some more restrictions. Otherwise, small cricket boards will not last long. Teams like Zimbabwe, West Indies will ruind very quickly. Their players will retire quickly from the international cricket and play in different leagues.

Even though Australia has won the series I too would like to see how India go batting first and then see if Australia can chase down the target. I also think that if India bat first that they would need a minimum of 350 runs as the Australian batting line up is very strong however Warner will miss the next ODI match and could also be in doubt for the first test match.

The next ODI will be played at Canberra (Manuka Oval) and therefore the conditions may be different from what they had in Sydney. So in case the pitch offers more support for the pace bowlers, it may be a bad decision to choose batting if they win the toss. The last ODI was played at this ground more than 4 years ago (Australia vs New Zealand), and it was a high scoring game with Australia ending up at 378/5.

Actually Mitchell Starc bowled worse than anyone in the Indian bowling lineup. In the end, it didn't matter because Australia had such a huge score to defend. But I have a feeling that if India had won the toss, and decided to bat first, then things could have been much different. India could have set a total of 350-360, and the Australians could have struggled to chase this down.

The two ODI was played in batting paradise and i really feel sad for the bowlers and the batsman were able to adjust to the pace and score runs off Mitchell Starc and the bowlers who were able to mix the deliveries with scrambled seam and slower balls will have any advantage in these flat pitches and i would like to see India batting first in their next match and see how it goes and until India is able to score above 350 runs Australia will chase them.

MA Starc is giving a lot of runs. Cummins and Zampa are successful bowlers. They are getting wickets and giving fewer runs. I think spinners are getting more benefits on this pitch than pacers. India can have an extra spinner in their squad. Because even if the spinners get fewer wickets, they are not spending more runs.

I don't know whether it will be a good idea to have an extra spinner. Yuzvendra Chahal went for plenty of runs during the first two matches. Jadeja was a bit better, but even he couldn't manage to take wickets. India can have an extra bowler in the playing XI, but I don't think that it should be a spinner. If they want to include Kuldeep, then it will be better to drop Chahal.

Extra bowler?

And how are we going to fit extra bowler in the Playing XI? and who is going to sit out specialist batsmen or Hardik or Jadeja? You can't change top 5 batsmen (Mayank,Sikhar,Virat, Iyer,Rahul) as batting might get bit weaker.
