India is now in the save zone. They are now ahead by 82 runs. And Rahane has scored a century. Jadeja is helping him very well. The partnership between Rahane and Jadeja are great. So far India has a chance to win the match. But Australia became violent in the second innings, they do not want to lose the match at all. Let's see who wins in the end.

Didn't watch the single ball today but after checking the scoreboard India looking at strong position, hopefully rain doesn't spoil their party and it seems Australia fielders dropping catches and not supporting their bowlers.

And Jaddu justifying his selection. So much for Bits and pieces... Poor Sanju Manju. Grin

Jadeja become better batsman after this year's IPL, not sure what is the reason but it is really a good thing for India. And also the way Gill approach was positive than what other players doing in the first Match. I don't think the rain will spoil the party, looking forward to see the comeback of Indian innings more stronger.

Australia cannot win the match unless India repeat the poor batting performance in the 2nd innings as they did in the first innings. India are on top in this test match and if rain does not spoil the match, India should win it from here.
On the other test match, SL are playing very well against SA and are at 374/6 looking to make a big score in their first innings.

It will be almost impossible for Australia to win, unless they could restrict India to a lead of less than 100. With 5 wickets remaining, India's lead is already 82 runs. In all possibility, tomorrow they will be able to extend it to 150-200 runs and Australia is at the risk of an innings defeat here. But then looking at the way India played during the second innings of the first test, it will be very difficult to say anything with full guarantee.

The match can end up in a draw with the way things are going while i thought Australia could win the match.

Lol. I guess Sanjay will continue getting trolled for this comment for the rest of his life. As expected, Jadeja comes to the rescue once again just like he has done so time and time again in the past. The way he held the catch despite colliding with Gill was brilliant.

What made you think Australia could win this one? India are in a way better position and they will probably win this one as long as rain doesn't mess things up.

Finally the Rahane came into the rescue while he is leading the team, surely a class performance from him when everyone is struggling there. And Jadeja also giving good partnership so they posted a lead of 80 runs while still having 5 wickets in hand. Another 70 runs into the scoreboard will put India in the comfortable position to win this match.

Rahane played a composed innings and Australia dropped some catches which was disappointing and Pat Cummins bowled really well and yet India was able to build partnership and with Jadeja giving him good company they were able to increase their lead by 82 runs and the match for the day is called off due to rain.

India took the honours on day 1 bowling Australia out for under 200. Like I said in a previous post before the match started that there was a tinge of green in this pitch and it showed with the great bowling performance by Bumrah. Now India need to keep this momentum going with the bat today but I think we will see rain delays maybe as its not looking too good right now as its overcast and they do expect rain later in the day.

The 4th wicket partnership has so far added 48 runs and this has given the advantage to India. At one point, they were struggling at 64/3, but the partnership between Hanuma Vihari and Ajinkya Rahane has rescued them. But still there is a long way to go for India. They should target a total of 300 plus, which should give them a lead in excess of 100 runs.

A target of 300 can only be achieved if this partnership continues though out today but unfortunately Bihari has left and now Jadeja needs to be there till the end.

Finally the Rahane came into the rescue while he is leading the team, surely a class performance from him when everyone is struggling there.

@mersal the momentum is with team India because their skipper is making sure that they post a healthy lead, and further I’m sure that he’ll hoping to take few quick wickets which will help team India win this match quickly.

It’s also pertinent to note that the play’s over for today, and currently India has a decent lead of 82 runs, and if they add more to it tomorrow then I feel that team Australia will be in big trouble.

New Zealand scored 431 in their first innings. Now Pakistan has started batting. I think Pakistan will lose all their wickets in 300 runs. New Zealand's pace bowling line up is very good. Fighting against them on a bouncing pitch is very difficult to survive.

I would be happy if Pakistan lose all their wickets and still manage to make 300 runs. I fear that they ma be all out in much less runs and may not be able to avoid the follow-on. Although its too early to say this but i don't see any positive energy in the team. They have lost one wicket in the first 16 overs of their innings.

They lost 1 wicket and managed to score 30 runs. I would be happy if they follow-on and lose the match by an innings. I don't see any experienced Test specialist players in their team. It is not surprise that they lost the match by an innings.

The match between Australia and India will get more attention than any other series at this moment. I am sure even the citizens of SA, SRI, PAK and NZ will be keeping any eye on this test match. India needs to come back strong in the test and so far looking good.

If Ajinkya Rahane can turn things around with the absence of Virat Kohli then it will be epic and there will be more pressure for the selectors to replace him if he does not deliver the same kind of performance. There are opinions about replacing Kohli and making Rohit Sharma the captain in the T20 format and the same will happen with Ajinkya Rahane.

Virat Kohli is an aggressive captain and we are yet to see his tactical brilliance in a match. He is winning matches with his batting brilliance and in the IPL we have not seen him win matches with his tactical approach while the rest of the captains have a good team and then their match tactics wins them matches.

Bad weather and rain is the last thing we want to see in this match. The morning session is important and Australia needs to pick wickets and put pressure to stay on top of this match.

True! I am wondering what would happen with Virat's leadership if India manage to win the series under Ajinkya. Virat already facing bit of backlash in the limited overs.

If Ajinkya Rahane can turn things around with the absence of Virat Kohli then it will be epic and there will be more pressure for the selectors to replace him if he does not deliver the same kind of performance. There are opinions about replacing Kohli and making Rohit Sharma the captain in the T20 format and the same will happen with Ajinkya Rahane.

The morning session is important and it all depends upon how India is batting in the first two sessions and avoid loosing wickets.

Between Pakistan and NZ, at EOD NZ are 222/3 and Williamson is batting on 94. Taylor was fantastic but could not convert into century and was out at 70. AT one point they were 13/2 but then Taylor and Williamson partnership helped them to come out of that trouble.

This match is going well as expected even though they lost couple of early wickets, Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor put on a 120 runs partnership and now Henry Nicholls is giving a good partnership and it will be a big challenge for Pakistan and i am expecting the match to be over within the final day.

In another test match between SL VS SA, SL batting first are going strong with 340/6. Chandimal was out at 85, De Silva is retired hurt on 79.

I was expecting South Africa to dominate the match and they even picked up early wickets but then they started to build partnership and they are now on a comfortable position

Pakistan started well but they drop a lot of catches. Williamson is playing and not out at 94 courtesy of the our fielders who dropped his two catches.
I would say that the pakistani fielders let them down. When you drop catches, the moral of the team drops and the match tilt in the favor of other team.
