Australia v India

[Sproj]

100 up for Australia.

Renshaw is such an unlikely tall person. He doesn't look it but he's an absolute giant.

Someone mentioned on cricinfo that he looks like a Cook-Hayden hybrid in style, I completely agree.

Well played Smith

 

[Sproj]

Quality half century from the captain. He's had luck but is cashing on it!

 

[Broncoman]

Smith is as good as always. Renshaw has really become a favourite of mine, perfect partner for Warner and is really digging in here and did very well here in Australia. Hard to believe the selectors were considering dropping him.

 

[Sproj]

Renshaw out! Valuable 30-odd from the kid chucking up his guts two days straight!

Marsh really needs to get a 50 right now
Be good for both himself and Australia

Not wrong! He'll fail of course but boy if he could just smash a quick 50, it'll win the game.

Could be over before we speak here

Awesome review failed

And finally after 26 dot balls from the Marsh brothers this innings they are off the mark

SOK is the new goat

only about 200 wickets to go....


crazy days play. no one would have picked this...

 

[Sproj]

Not wrong, Australia ahead by 298 with Marsh actually crossing 20 at the end of day two on a minefield of a pitch. This innings by Smith just reaffirms why he is so great.

Just an unbelievable TEAM performance:

Renshaw, Smith with the bat.
Starc all round so far
SOK with the ball
Handscomb with some epic catches

 

[Bull Shark]

Outstanding day for Australia.. that was some seriously good application with the bat in the second dig, especially from Smith who looked as dialled in as I've ever seen him.. 350 might be the 'luxury' lead we're chasing now because batting doesn't look entirely impossible if you play down the line and don't mind getting beaten by the big turners and looking stupid on occasion.. you just know Virat is going to have some kind of say before this thing is decided
