It's over now almost. I don't expect Hanuma Vihari and Pant will do wonders but still they are not like noob actually.

With the way the match is going India will cross almost 300 runs and that is not a bad score in the pitch, i am yet to see Vihari play but he is scoring runs for India in this series and with the bowling line up India has it is a really good score as i cannot see any really consistent player in the West Indies team. The domestic circuit in India is strong and so is the reason they are producing quality players.

Any score 300+ surely is going to be good for India as their bowling is very good and West Indian batting is ordinary they still need some good time to fix these problems and India is not going to give them this chance as right now they have some good chance for gaining good points and surely they are not going to miss this golden opportunity.

With the test championship started each team will like to make maximum gains by winning that game and tournament and take those extra points by winning the series. So India will play its best players in this match as well.

India should touch at least 350 scores from here. But when talking about the ideal scenario, India might want to bat around 2 more session that means almost 50-60 overs. If Hanuma Vihari and Pant along with lower-order can show little resistance, then they can fancy their chances of getting close to 400 or maybe more Runs.

For windies perspective situation is not very good despite their early success, Gabriel had a bad day so not a good sign for Jason holder on this Green pitch, and they are one seamer short here. Hopefully, Gabriel will bounce back on the second day so that they can wrap up remaining batsmen cheaply. Otherwise, they can say Sayonara to this series.

It looks like Strac will play the fourth test match for Australia which is good news and hopefully he can give Australia the spark they need after losing the third test after having all the momentum. Not sure what will happen to Smith though after not making many runs in the tour match but then again he didn't do all that good before the Ashes anyway however he could still be not 100% right after the hit in the neck from the second test match. If he isn't 100% then there is no point risking him as Australia did okay without him.

Needs to be careful here. If one more wicket falls, then the noobs will come to bat (Hanuma Vihari & Rishabh Pant).

It's over now almost. I don't expect Hanuma Vihari and Pant will do wonders but still they are not like noob actually. Vihari is kinda Test face but most of us are unfamiliar while on other hand Pant is more like a T-20,ODI player so it's kinda pretty challenging task for him. I still hope for at least 100-150 runs out of the remaining batsman. Rest you know how our bowling gets the WI Wink

Mayank Agarwal was batting so well and he got out needlessly just now. There was no need to play that shot, as the ball was close to his body, at a good height. Kohli was building a good partnership with him, and now he needs to take help from Ajinkya Rahane. Needs to be careful here. If one more wicket falls, then the noobs will come to bat (Hanuma Vihari & Rishabh Pant). And after that, the tail will start with Ravindra Jadeja.

One more doubt is that, is there a rule change in Test cricket that they can have a substitute player if someone is injured, during Ashes second Test i saw Marnus Labuschagne coming in to bat instead of Smith as he was injured and i did not see them announcing the 12th man, can they select anyone in the squad randomly, anyone having any idea regarding that.

Yeah, this is new rule under only concussion replacement - suspected concussion replacement. where substitute can bat, ball or WK in this scenario

India vs West Indies:

India lost one wicket, Holder was the man and it was an easy catch for new comer Cornwall. That guy can ball too. He is huge!

Edit: Agarwal is charging him.

Quote from: Avirunes on August 30, 2019, 10:27:59 AM

Maybe he is not feeling like playing like in Ashes or putting it up hard on himself. That's the side some player has when they know a big match or competition is coming up ahead and not to push hard when you just got recovered.

Yeah it's a practice match. There are no need to take it seriously. Smith will be needed in the 4th test. I hope Warner gets some run too.

Steve Smith scored just 23 runs and was out to spin bowler Matt Critchley.

Now the match has become too boring, and Marnus Labuschagne is scoring at snail's pace. Anyone who want to watch the match check this link:

Well that's the Test. They have a very good advantage against Derby btw. Even if they score 500 if Bancroft and Labuschagne stays taking the whole 3rd day, you know they still are in advantage with the bowling unit they have packed up for this match.

That's the beauty of English vs Aussies cricket isn't it.. I mean the strategies Cheesy

Steve Smith scored just 23 runs and was out to spin bowler Matt Critchley. Looks like he hasn't fully recovered from the injury that he suffered during the second test. This is a three day match, and the chances are that Australia will not bat again. Now the match has become too boring, and Marnus Labuschagne is scoring at snail's pace.

Pitch is looking green Cheesy

so don't hold your breath for the first hour if you are an Indian fan. I am hoping for a good contest between Bat and Ball at least for the first Hour.

Both Agarwal and Rahul seems to confidence. WI can't use the chance of taking some a few wickets earlier with new ball. Gabriel is spending too much per over, 20 from 3 overs, my god.

Edit- Is that me who got the wicket Grin

Rahul gone.

@Vishnu the Weather man Grin

Taking into weather into consideration i will go for draw no bet rather than going for the win, who knows about the weather. West Indies won the toss and elected to ball.

Ind vs WI

Windies again won the good toss, and they chose to field first. India went with their Winning combination, so no change in playing XI and Windies has a couple of Changes.

OK.... I just want to give a weather update for the fourth test. Rain is predicted for the first 3 days and there is good chance of a passing shower during the 4th day. 5th day should be cloudy, but devoid of rains.

Sep 4: Chances of precipitation - 60%
Sep 5: Chances of precipitation - 64%
Sep 6: Chances of precipitation - 73%
Sep 7: Chances of precipitation - 49%
Sep 8: Chances of precipitation - 16%

Okay in this case draw no bet is the safe pick or if your bookies have "win or draw" market then go for it. Odds will be a little less but it worth picking that market. Problem with "draw no bet" is that if a match indeed end up with draw then you do not get much in return.

You made a call for England to win the match and somehow they magically won the match and that too with the help of botched umpiring decisions and Australia taking a replay for a bowl pitched well outside leg stump and if they did not take that replay they could have used that when the umpires denied a straight LBW decision. The odds are great to ignore and i am willing to go along with you on this one Wink

.

I was siding for England last time because Smith was missing from Australian squad but since Smith is back, I think it will be hard for England to beat them. On top of it, if Starc plays then it will be much easier for Australia to win.

Yeah, even though Smith was not there - English team could not take advantage of it instead they were in the back seat all the time in the last test. No one expected the win but it was miraculous. I was not proud of my pick but was surprised to see it a win.

The latest tip is for straight wins however if you want then you can go with draw no bet too. It's much safer, just in case there are rain. You can not always trust English weather. Odd will not that bad too.
Australia to win (draw no bet)
India to win (draw no bet)

Steve Smith has started solidly against Derbyshire, and currently he is batting along with Mitchell Marsh. This match should be a cakewalk for Australia, as Derbyshire has been historically one of the weakest English county sides. Look out for 18-year old Hamidullah Qadri. He was born in Afghanistan, and we may soon find him in international cricket.

I would choose the bets(With draw included) in order to earn a higher payout in this case. Also, I agree with your picks and am expecting big wins by both India and Australia.

As like Indian Cricket Board there might be some internal politics which has kept Starc out of the last three matches. As said Starc is a strong player to take away the end wickets, but I don't think his presence could've taken the wicket of Stokes. The entire team has been targeting him, and at some point he started aggressive game, by that time he could've caught or bowled and send to the pavilion.

I don't think internal politics has anything to do with his omission. I think that he himself chose to sit on the bench or the committee decided by themselves in order to provide more opportunities to bowlers like Pattinson etc.
