First test is pretty much India's at this point considering the fact that their lead has already crossed 400 and they still have 5 wickets in hand. 500+ is when they might end up declaring if you ask me.
Kohli is back in form while Sundar is supporting him nicely. Epic comeback by the Indians considering their horrendous start. Let's see if India can best the Aussies on their turf in this series yet again.

When Dhruv Jurel got out, I thought that it is going to be yet another instance of middle-order collapse for the Indians. But then, Washington Sundar joined Virat Kohli and stabilized the innings. India is leading by 387 runs at the moment, and they may bat until they get another 100-120 runs. And this is also another opportunity for Kohli to score some runs. Australian captain has once again resorted to the spinners, with Travis Head and Nathan Lyon in the attack right now.
India's collection from the first wicket pair was 201 runs. India collected 74 runs from the Padikkal-Jaiswal pair. But India lost the next three wickets very quickly. Rishab Pant played a little better in the first innings. Even then, Pant collected only 37 runs in the first innings. Rishab Pant returned to the dressing room after collecting only 1 run in the second innings. Dhruv Jurel also managed to collect only 1 run. Now Virat Kohli and Washington Sundar are at the crease.
We have not seen a big innings from Virat Kohli for a long time. Kohli is currently unbeaten on 49 runs. Kohli is batting with a lot of responsibility. And the total of the Indian team is now 377/5. India is ahead by 423 runs. Giving a target of more than 500 will not be a difficult task for India.

Who knew Australia's batting would collapse like how Indian batting collapsed in the first innings? Considering Australia is playing in their home, they should have played better. But things like this happen. It's nice that India recovered everything too quickly, and they are well ahead of Australia right now. Yashasvi Jaiswal Played an awesome innings. I cannot say much more about it.
India lost their third wicket as of the time of writing. The pitch seems playable now. India already has a 360-run lead, which is not too small and not too big. I hope they play all day and have another session on the day 4th. India will have a massive lead by then.

On the morning of the 3th day, Australian team manages to get some wickets. However Yashasvi Jaiswal 161 and KL Rahul 77 has done the takes for Indian team and now it is only a matter of time as how much runs lead the India will get and give Australia a tough target. I agree that Pitch looks better for batting but still it is not easy to chase any runs beyond 400 on the last innings even on a batting wicket.
I place my bet on India and i hope India gets a good lead here. I checked the odds for India now and they are just 1.12, i got the odds 1.90 when India wasn't on such good position

Australian bowlers look deflated at the moment. Yashasvi Jaiswal has been joined at the crease by Virat Kohli at the crease and India looks well set for a lead of 500 plus. Australian captain has called up part-timers such as Marnus Labuschagne and Travis Head to bowl, which shows his desperation. Things look bleak for Australia and now they are behaving as if they have already given up this match. All that said, this is just the first out of a total of 5 matches. Next match will take place at the Adelaide Oval.
November 24, 2024, 12:08:45 AM
India has a lead of 305 runs at this point. Devdutt Padikkal and Yashasvi Jaiswal looks comfortable out there. The frustrated Australian captain has brought Travis Head to bowl. For all the practical purposes, the outcome of this match looks certain and it is going to be a huge morale booster for the Indians after their crushing whitewash to New Zealand just a few weeks ago. India may end up with a lead of 450-500 and may declare before tea today. That will give them a total of 2 and one-third days to bowl out the Australians.
India have just lost their second wicket. India have lost Devdutt Padikkal's wicket for 275 runs. He is still at the crease. Jaiswal. Jaiswal's score is 141 runs. Jaiswal is batting very responsibly.
India managed to score only 150 runs in the first innings. In the second innings, they scored 275 runs and lost only two wickets. But this is not the first time we have seen such strange batting from India. A few days ago, in the match against New Zealand, India scored only 46 runs in the first innings. However, India's score was 462 runs in the second innings. We are seeing the same thing happening again. India scored only 150 runs in the first innings. But it seems that India will score at least 450+ in the second innings.

I didn't even notice that the first test between Bangladesh and the West Indies had already started. I was busy checking altcoins' prices the whole day and doing other things. It is understandable that the West Indies would play better than Bangladesh on their home ground, which they did. But Bangladesh seems to be playing as usual. There are no more surprises and no improvements in bowling.
I was slightly surprised to see the new Talented pacer Nahid Rana on the bench. West Indies has a good, sporty wicket, and I guess the Pacers benefit from such wickets. Nahid Rana could be good on such a surface. But never mind, They had options which they used. I'm looking forward to seeing how they do with the bat.

What a crazy rollercoaster of a match. It started with India losing initially to Australia losing within just a few days thanks to Bumrah and squad primarily. Jaiswal doing Jaiswal things while Rahul is supporting him brilliantly. 300+ lead loading.
These fucks are giving me hope, which no one expected when this tour started. Still, too early in the series but good to be in the dominating position after facing Cleansweep at home. Never thought that our openers would go on to stitch a record breaking partnership for India after 21 years. It's the combination of Jaiswal (first tour of Aus) and depression merchant KL Rahul.
Depression merchant KL Rahul, lmfao. He played good in both the innings though, even if he got out early in first innings, he looked in touch, his out was questionable too.
Another daddy ton for Jaiswal (4th), that's just a start and we'll see many in the future (fingers crossed). Paddikal doing good as well but Gill will replace him in the next match so Paddikal needs to bat long as well and get some runs, there is no pressure whatsoever and plenty of time left in this match. Need to cook Aussie seamers under the sun, Starc is already gassed out.

The match is being played at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. And I have seen several matches played at this stadium. I have not seen a high score in any format, be it Test, ODI or T20. The average score on this pitch in the first innings in the T20 format is only 125 runs. The average score in the first innings of the Test format is probably 272 runs. This cannot be called a big score. Moreover, I do not think it is batting friendly considering the condition of the pitch. The bowling weakness of the Bangladeshi bowlers has allowed the West Indies batsmen to bat well.
West Indies have made a big total of 450. And I am sure that it is impossible for Bangladesh to score 400 runs. Bangladesh have already lost the wickets of two openers. Since Bangladesh have to score big, the two openers should have batted very carefully and played a big innings. But Bangladesh lost their two wickets for 21 runs. At the end of the second day, Bangladesh's total was 40 runs for the loss of two wickets.
November 23, 2024, 10:21:22 PM
West Indies lost their seventh wicket for 261 runs. And West Indies lost their eighth wicket for 401 runs. Kemar Roach played a brilliant innings of 47 runs from 144 balls. This innings was very necessary. West Indies were able to collect a huge 140 from the Kemar Roach and Greaves pair. These two batsmen were able to bat very responsibly. Greaves is still unbeaten with 98 runs.
Bangladeshi bowlers could not bowl well in the first innings as expected. As a result, West Indies were able to collect 400+. Bangladesh team is always weak in the Test format. The performance of the batsmen is very irregular. Most of the time Bangladeshi batsmen bat badly. But suddenly in some match we see Bangladeshi batsmen bat well. I do not expect Bangladeshi batsmen to be able to take the lead in the match against West Indies.
Two sessions have ended in the day 02 and we have a tea break now. West Indies have score 415 runs and lost 8 wickets. Justin Greaves is batting on 109 runs but the question is when they will declare the innings or will they bat till they lose all wickets? I don't think it will be good if they bat two full days Bangladeshi bowlers could not bowl well in the first innings as expected. As a result, West Indies were able to collect 400+. Bangladesh team is always weak in the Test format. The performance of the batsmen is very irregular. Most of the time Bangladeshi batsmen bat badly. But suddenly in some match we see Bangladeshi batsmen bat well. I do not expect Bangladeshi batsmen to be able to take the lead in the match against West Indies.
My opinion is that they should declare the innings right now and give the opportunity to their bowlers to have a strike against Bangladesh batsmen in the last session and see if they could take 2 or 3 wickets today.
West Indies declared their innings by scoring 450 runs in the first innings. Bangladeshi bowlers could not take 10 wickets. West Indies' total was 450 runs after losing 9 wickets. West Indies batsmen batted well. Especially Justin Greaves was unbeaten after scoring 115 runs.
On the other hand, Bangladesh lost two wickets in the beginning of their innings. Probably no one expected good batting from Bangladesh. Because we all know that this team's batting order is very weak. Bangladesh lost their two openers after scoring only 21 runs. Joy scored only 5 runs and Zakir scored only 15 runs. I doubt whether Bangladesh team will be able to score up to 250.

West Indies scored 250 runs for the loss of 5 wickets on the first day. I thought West Indies would be all out between 340-350 but in the end West Indies declared the innings by 450 runs. West Indies batsmen batted well with patience. Alick Athanaze and Mikyle Louis both got out unfortunately coming close to centuries, Justin Greaves batted well at the end and was unbeaten on 115 runs. Anyway, Bangladesh went into bat with a big run lead, so far Bangladesh has collected 40 runs with the loss of 2 wickets in 20 overs and the 2nd day's play is over. When the wickets of Bangladesh started to fall, wickets started to fall like a storm. The performance of Bangladeshi batsmen is not good. Bangladeshi batsmen cannot bat well with patience. I think it will not be possible for Bangladesh to score 450 runs in the first innings. Let's see how the Bangladeshi batsmen perform on the 3rd day.
West Indies had strong start scoring 250 runs with 5 wickets lost on first day. I also thought they would get out for around 340 350 runs but they stopped their innings at 450 runs. West Indies batsmen played very well and showed a lot of patience. Alick Athanaze and Mikyle Louis both almost scored 100 runs but got out. Justin Greaves played really well and did not get out scoring 115 runs. Bangladesh started batting but they were already behind by a lot of runs. By end of second day they had scored 40 runs and lost 2 wickets in 20 overs. Bangladeshi batsmen are struggling and losing wickets quickly. I do not think they can score 450 runs in their first innings. It will be interesting to see how they do on third day.

What the Bangladeshi bowlers could not do, the rain came and the game was stopped. If not basically the batting pitch, the way Kemar Roach is batting, it is understood that the entire pitch is a batting support pitch. Moreover, if the spinners were the supporting pitch then Taijul Islam and Mehdi Hasan Miraj would have bowled well. Justin Greaves and Kemar Roach these two batsmen have already made a partnership of 120 runs. The way these two batsmen are batting in a defensive manner, it does not seem that the Bangladeshi bowlers will be able to break this partnership.
What the hell is wrong with Bangladesh team, as from recent innings we have seen pitch completely favor batters and that why we have seen a very huge target from west indies by contribution of thier young man's against top Bangladesh bowling lineup. I taught Bangladesh will does ordinary too by following their footsteps but surprisingly when Bangladesh continue their innings they were not only get in trouble from West Indies bowlers but loss a very important two early batters who provides west indies a hope of victory. I know it's very early for such words but I have seen thier collapse against India so I am imagine same results hope Bangladesh rest of batters proves me wrong and played phenomenal innings as still they have huge number of wickets in hand

So finally West Indies have declared at 450 runs. They took around 5 sessions to make this score and used 144 overs with a run rate of 3.12 runs per overs. They scored bit slowly but the good thing is that they got the runs on the board and not it is time to their bowlers to show their class. I have high hopes with Alzarri Joseph while Jayden Seales is also a good bowler. If Bangladesh can bat well and save the follow on, this match can be head towards draw as well. From Bangladesh point of view it is important that they do not lose wickets today and early morning tomorrow.
Bookies are highly favoring West Indies and rightly so, as they have a strong hold on this match.
This also natural that all the bookies will highly favoring the West Indies team as west Indies did also that kind of the performance against Bangladesh Like 450 run was like a mountain for the Bangladeshi batters. I don't this that this score can be touch by the bangladeshi batters.Bookies are highly favoring West Indies and rightly so, as they have a strong hold on this match.
I do think that Bangladesh team will be all out before the 200 run in this match as they did in the previous series
November 23, 2024, 04:31:21 PM
India is doing a great batting performance in the second innings, after all outing Australia for 104 runs, India has come out to bat in the second innings. India's batting performance today is very good, the way they are going to bat, they will definitely make a big score and give Australia a lead. KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal have made a great score today in their partnership and the way they are batting, they will make even bigger scores. Yashasvi Jaiswal is batting patiently and will soon reach his century, KL Rahul and the two are batting wonderfully, they have made the game. India has scored 145 runs in their partnership today, but Australia is not trying hard enough to bowl well, at the moment India has managed to give a lead of 191 runs by batting.
India defiantly in control of the match at the moment. With 10 wickets left India already have a lead of 218 runs and there is strong chance that they will give a target of over 400 runs to Australians which won't be easy to chase. Australians are up in this test with there full strength test squad and it's shocking to see Australians getting out for 104 runs. Odds are in favour of India at the moment and it will be risky to go with Australia for this test.
The odds are in their favor considering India's current performance. Australia has shown their poor performance even with their strong team, which already indicates their defeat. Since India played strongly today and scored 218 runs without losing any wickets, it is estimated that they will be able to give a lead of 450 plus runs tomorrow. However, if Australia can bowl well against India tomorrow and take wickets, then the game can turn around a lot. However, we can say for sure that Australia will lose the first Test match because this current strong performance of India will defeat Australia.

Yeah, in first Test game between West Indies and Bangladesh is on the second day. For West Indies, their batsmen have so far scored 429 runs in 142 overs while losing 8 wickets between these two teams, West Indies play well and better than Bangladesh. In this game too, West Indies will give a big and difficult target to Bangladesh, which Bangladesh players will not be able to complete. West Indies have lost another wicket which will hurt them to score more runs. A target of 500 would have been enough for Bangladesh if their batsmen could have slowly scored runs in the next over. Justin Greaves scored 114 runs for West Indies in this game. Bowler Hasan has taken 3 wickets from Bangladesh side. It depends on Bangladesh whether they can meet that target in their batting.
So finally West Indies have declared at 450 runs. They took around 5 sessions to make this score and used 144 overs with a run rate of 3.12 runs per overs. They scored bit slowly but the good thing is that they got the runs on the board and not it is time to their bowlers to show their class. I have high hopes with Alzarri Joseph while Jayden Seales is also a good bowler. If Bangladesh can bat well and save the follow on, this match can be head towards draw as well.
