It should be close to 400, batting is going to be more comfortable from day 2 and Aussie already going at 3+ run rate. So close to 400 shouldn't be big task even if they bat only 2 sessions.

India would be very happy if they restrict them under 350 as average total in Sydney is close to 400ish runs. (Edit: in recent years)

Anything above 300 is going to put Indian in a difficult situation. It is not that hard anyway. Steve Smith is not in good form and only Marnus Labuschagne has scored runs on a consistent basis. If India manages to get one or two quick wickets at the start of play tomorrow, then they may be able to restrict Australia to 290-300. Momentum is with India after the second test and they needs to make sure that it stays that way.

Bhai I think you didn't get to watch the game live, pitch is almost flat. Batsmen were middling every ball except 5-6 balls in whole day and the way Marnus and Smith are batting, it wouldn't be surprise if one of them reach the 3 fiqure.

Could not got to see the game today, well under such situation OZ are heading towards a big score and India may only feel good about today is that they got Warner very early atleast else he would also have been in those 3 figure mark. If in next couple of days also we do expect the Rain then some overs will be out of the play. If OZ tomorrow do not get all out then India may have a difficult time unless they could manage to bat well and build good partnership like OZ team.

AUS is going to post a huge total I guess, if the rain didn't stop the play then probably they might be unbeaten at 300+. Two new test bowlers managed to get each wicket still the line up looks weak against such a huge record team on a particular venue.

It needs to be seen how much they will manage, because most of their batsmen (including Steve Smith) seems to be out of form. Will Pucovski batted sensibly today, along with Marnus Labuschagne. But the Australian fortunes will depend a lot on the ongoing partnership between Smith and Labuschagne. Other lower order batsmen such as Paine and Wade are also not in good form, so I am not expecting much from them.

After such a horrible start, Australia managed to reach 166/2. I wasn't impressed with his performance during the warmup matches, but today he handled the Indian bowlers really well (aided by some poor fielding from the other side). Now it is up to the top Australian partnership of Steven Smith and Marnus Labuschagne. Tomorrow we will get an idea about which way this match is going to swing.

If Indian batting able to handle situation then most chances we are going with Draw option otherwise after watching today fielding its going to be for Australia because if you are dropping catches then you have nothing to do just wait for some big burden of runs and feel pressure like Pakistan done few days back.

Finally Australia is able to create a good partnership and shout outs to Rishabh Pant from the entire Australian cricket fans for helping them by dropping catches Grin

. Will Pucovski finally made his debut and hopefully he will convert to a big century and hopefully Steve Smith returns to form and score big. Rain interrupted in the morning session and hopefully we will not have any further delays in the next four days.

Saini is the new debutant on the list.

After 1st game everyone thought that it would be one sided series for obvious reason but Indians did fight back beautifully and now we can expect same from Aussie.

All eyes will be on Rohit Sharma in this test. Saw a couple of overs of Md Shiraz, this guy is bowling with a lot of confidence. He took the crucial wicket of David Warner. Google probability score still states a 60 percent chance for Australia to win this test. Let's see how it changes as the game progresses.

His test career is on the line here, so far he batted in favorable conditions and positions. Opening in this test would be his first challenge and he can't ask for better condition to bat on, this is good pitch for batters.

-----

Edit

Lol our boy Pant dropped the catch. Grin

Edit

2 drop catch --- Rishabh Pant---

Well deserve 50 for debutant Will Pucovski, he was lucky but luck always favors the brave. So far no demons on the pitch.

Just ridiculous. Australia at 31/1 and they have lost one of their top batsman. And Google predictor claims that there is a 60% chance for Australian win? Either they are not going by the real-time score, or they are giving too much advantage to Australia on the basis of toss and home advantage. The momentum is with India and they have the advantage after Warner got out.

No movement at all so far in Sydney and ball coming at bat nicely, it's clearly a batting track but David Warner looked in hurry and threw away his wicket, poor guy..

I am expecting big totals here.

Rain stopped the play too early, don't know how this day is going to be because the clouds are still dark so possible for more drizzle in Sydney. Warner came back after a break and threw his wicket too early to Siraj. Good start for India hope they will continue the things as of now if the game resumes.

Frustrating day for everyone. Just 7 overs of play possible till now and once again Australia looks to be in trouble. No one really expected India to win a single match in this series, but now a series win looks like a real possibility. With Steve Smith out of form, all eyes will be on Marnus Labuschagne to help Australia to a total above 300. But the initial trends doesn't look good for Australia.

Before match summary itself stated that there is very less chance for the match to get completed. As per the present weather forecast we can expect the match to end in a draw or it goes completely a one sided match for the home team.

Lunch has been taking earlier and the extra 30 minutes will be rewarded before the end of the day if there is any gameplay left for today. As of now, the weather is still the same and it's raining so even if the rain stops now it will take an hour before the match resumes. OZ has great records against India on this ground but it is not the real issue now, if we can see the full game lay for the remaining days then results can be achieved for sure.

@Indymoney mate, I totally agree with you. Many thought that since the new Prime Minister of Pakistan was a former cricketer, he might take appropriate steps for the development of cricket. We don't know if he has taken any action. But so far I have not seen any improvement in Pakistan's game. On the contrary, they are declining day by day. At the moment all forms of corruption must be stopped from the board of Pakistan. Then it is hoped that in the next few years the Pakistan team will regain its reputation.

You are blaming the decline of Pakistani cricket on the administration. IMO, it is not that easy. Management is not the only reason why the performance is going down. I had already pointed out other factors in my previous posts. The poor quality of domestic cricket and lack of proper cricketing infrastructure are some of the reasons. The Pakistani first class cricket still remains in a very bad state. Unless the quality of domestic cricket is improved, I don't expect any miracles in the long term.

My guess was that if Pakistan could not take any of NZ's wickets in the first session of the third day, then Pakistan would lose the match by an innings. And I told it before. What I thought happened. Pakistan lost not only by an innings, but they also lost by a huge margin of innings and 176 runs. This is their fourth defeat in terms of innings and huge runs. Their biggest defeat was against England, that was an inning and 225 runs.

In the last 2 or 3 years, pakistan was on the losing side by biggest margin, saw some tweet yesterday which said pakistan was the opponent when team scored highest run in an innings on a test match. Is it actually true?

Pakistan's history is good with sports but current and future is not good enough because now all things not going on any planning or merit just politics and biased things happening which are killing beauty of game in last 3 years Pakistan dropping badly in ranking and in quality but no one doing any positive thing so they will go more down.

Wait, I agree that Pakistani sports history was good one but currently our team is facing a lot of issues probably don't have some good experienced persons in the cricket team but how you can say that future is not good. They will learn from their mistakes and will come out to be a better team. As always, they always are a threating team to all the countries when it comes to world Cup and all big tournaments.

Umer bhai you are very furious person just try to understand things and ground realities now Pakistani sports is really in bad shape because corruption is one off biggest issue and we have no policy about any thing even when we have new Prime Minister who is former Captain of Pakistan cricket team I was feeling this will bring some better changes but nothing happening even we are going down because most of peoples coming on just because of personal links no merit nothing specialty so its not good its more worst happening around us for some long time.

I think he has doubts about the future of Pakistan cricket because of the corruption in the Pakistan Cricket Board. Their cricket board is much more corrupt. If the team management does not like a player, no matter how talented he is, he is not given a chance to play in the national team. We have seen such examples. If such corruption continues, the future of Pakistan will be really bleak.

Well.. then have a team coach from some foreign country such as Australia and give him the responsibility of team selection. That should end the controversy surrounding bias and favoritism in selection. But this is not unusual for sub-continent teams. Even in India, sometimes the selection of certain players can be controversial. Whatever controversy is there, it should not impact the team bonding.
