4th Test - Day 1 4 Game test series, Australia 1 V India 2 Well... Australia have BLOWN the series(and the Border-Gavaskar Trophy). They can not win the series but India can. Best Australia can do is WIN this game and draw the series 2 all. As I say... RAIN needs to be a consideration. If Australia do not push for a result when they can, even if that means risking a LOSS... they may simply see the game run out of time and dribble to a draw. I am sure INDIA is keen to do better than just a loss and a drawn series. They are after their first ever series WIN in Australia. However, this game drawn is "good enough" for them to win the Series. The pressure is all on Australia to move this game along. Pre-match BS show has started. Live pics from Sydney look great... clear skies NOTE: As I mentioned.... Australia batting has FAILED repeatedly. I suggested dropping all six at the top of the batting order.. but of course WHO do you replace them with? The selectors have at least made one "dramatic" change.. Marnus Labuschagne will bat at No. 3. Aaron Finch is dropped. Bear in mind that No. 3 is the spot normally reserved for the Team's "Best Batsman".. so Labuschagne has a LOT expected of him (I have never heard of him) I have NEVER been a fan of Finch... glad he's gone.. especially with an injured finger. Similarly Mitchell Marsh. STILL talk of Smith and Warner coming back Personally I would NOT have them back in the National side ever. Both shown to be "bad sports".. they epitomize players who "bring the game of cricket into disrepute". They should be GONE ... and hopefully soon forgotten |

4th Test - Day 2 India 303/4 * (90 ov) Weather looks fine, sunny, hot today, but I still think there is a good chance that some time will be lost to rain in this match I don't see any hope for Australia. India are likely to bat most of today and I can't see Aussie batsmen matching their total, and the Aussie bowlers unlikely to dominate in the next innings. Australia generally don't have the batsmen or bowlers to do well at cricket these days. There is still a lot of chat about selection, but IMO it needs to be dramatic. I have faith that Australia has general cricket talent. It's a matter of selecting a new crop. The "old guard" need to be replaced (most if not all of them). As I have said I would NOT select Smith and Warner after their suspension. India, on the other hand can bat to 450-500... and bowl Australia out cheaply on a deteriorating wicket? Enforce the follow-on and bowl them out a second time for the win. (even with time lost to RAIN) Commentators have some fanciful scenarios for Australian win? None of them are even considering RAIN and lost overs... nor the basic fact that they would need to bat large score themselves, gain a lead, AND bowl India out (twice) Live scorecard http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/1869 ... us-2018-19 Indian 1st Innings wickets 5th Wicket GH Vihari c Labuschagne b Lyon 42 (96b 5x4 0x6) SR: 43.75 India 329/5 (102 0v) -------------------- LUNCH BREAK India 389/5 * (117 ov) (3 overs short.. again) -------------------- 6th Wicket CA Pujara c & b Lyon 193 (373b 22x4 0x6) SR: 51.74 India 418/6 * (130 ov) Just short of Double Century -------------------- TEA BREAK India 491/6 * (146 ov) Australia 4 overs short now -------------------- Rishabh Pant India 509/6 * (149.2 ov) -------------------- 3rd New Ball India 563/6 * (160 ov) -------------------- 7th Wicket RA Jadeja b Lyon 81 (114b 7x4 1x6) SR: 71.05 INDIA DECLARE India 622/7d * (167.2 ov) |

It would take Australia same time (at best), and they would need to also put on a big lead AND bowl India out... It simply will not happen, even without any time lost in the match India on the other hand, have 3 days to take 20 Australian wickets... it is do-able!

4th Test - Day 4 India 622/7d Australia 236/6 * (83.3 ov) Australia trail by 386 runs with 4 wickets remaining in the innings Live Scorecard http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/1869 ... us-2018-19 From ESPN.. There was a lot of rain overnight but the ground can hold up well against it. There is a chance of showers during day and a few more tomorrow. Will that make Virat Kohli consider the follow-on if he gets the chance? I can NOT see the sense in not enforcing the follow on... on most occasions, especially this one. TIME can always run out in cricket, and so why not go for the 20 wickets needed for a win? IF you run out of time trying... you were going to run out of time even more so if you had used up a session or 2 yourself batting (and guessing when you had enough runs). Even if the opposition put on their own lead... you still get a chance with a second innings to make that target if/when you do bowl them out. The covers are on... so it does not look like the early start will happen More "drizzle" no sign of play starting. Ongoing chat about "Smith and Warner returning".. as if ALL of Australia's problems were caused/can be solved by those two. Australia need a lot more than 2 good batsmen... even if they are still both "good". Australia needs far more depth than being entirely at the whim of a player or 2. Players exit via injury/bad form/retirement all the time. These two have "brought the game of cricket in disrepute" and as such would CONTINUE to be a "black mark" on the game every time they appeared in a national team. They should be gone for ever IMO. The Austalian team (and other national teams) have survived the sudden departure (retirement) of "Star players" before. I remember Shane Warne and Glen McGrath retiring both after the same game. A HUGE double loss at around same time Mitchell Johnson also retired "unexpectedly".. and so a triple loss in the Australian bowling dept.... the world did not end I could go on... star players leave eventually... the depth of talent should cope. I agree with... Robert Brown: "About time we stop talking Smith and Warner, as an Australian, would rather not see them again, no forgiveness from me" No play yet... but Lunch taken at 12:30 Play will start at 1.50 pm 60 overs scheduled today (after completion of part over) The only hope for a result is India take wickets... last 4 in first innings then enforce the follow-on and take 10 second innings wickets. This session goes on till 3.50 pm and the final session onto 6 pm, possibly even 6.30 pm. And India have taken the new ball. They wanted to last evening but were told the light wasn't good enough to bowl the quicks 2nd New Ball India 622/7d Australia 236/6 * (84.0 ov) Day 4 - Session 2: Australia trail by 386 runs with 4 wickets remaining in the innings Australia 1st Innings wickets 7th Wicket PJ Cummins b Mohammed Shami 25 (44b 6x4 0x6) SR: 56.81 India 622/7d Australia 236/7 * (84.3 ov) Day 4 - Session 2: Australia trail by 386 runs with 3 wickets remaining in the innings -------------------- 8th Wicket PSP Handscomb b Bumrah 37 (111b 5x4 0x6) SR: 33.33 India 622/7d Australia 257/8 * (89.4 ov) Day 4 - Session 2: Australia trail by 365 runs with 2 wickets remaining in the innings -------------------- 9th Wicket NM Lyon lbw b Kuldeep Yadav 0 (5b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00 India 622/7d Australia 258/9 * (90.5 ov) Day 4 - Session 2: Australia trail by 364 runs with 1 wicket remaining in the innings -------------------- 10th Wicket JR Hazlewood lbw b Kuldeep Yadav 21 (45b 2x4 0x6) SR: 46.66 India 622/7d Australia 300/10 * (104.5 ov) Day 4: Australia trail by 322 runs with 0 wickets remaining in the innings Kuldeep Yadav gets a five-fer India enforce the follow-on |

Innings break India 622/7d Australia 300/10 * (104.5 ov) and 0/0 * (f/o) Day 4: Australia trail by 322 runs with 10 wickets remaining in the 2nd innings 37 overs remaining today (and 98 tomorrow?) Harris hit on wrist... and they are walking off for bad light (and taking early tea) "bad light" was a common excuse to stop play back in "the old days", but that was when cricket was played (especially in UK) close to sunset. In fact UK often dark old rainy conditions all day! Nowadays there are LIGHTS at stadiums, and batsmen wear helmets... and the light is not as bad as dreary UK late afternoon!! Tea Break India 622/7d Australia 300 & 6/0 * (4 ov) (f/o) Day 4: Australia trail by 316 runs with 10 wickets remaining The Umpires are out after tea... just pissing about.... resumption of play still delayed And now... light rain! Cricketers can be PUSSIES!! Part of the game is to COPE with local conditions... searing heat/humidity in some places... cold and wet... windy.. etc. Some "bad pitches" are of concern in regards safety (ball rearing up etc), but play goes on. I can accept light could become a "safety issue" in extreme cases... but in conditions like we have in Sydney now.. the batsmen simply have to cope with it. As I say... nowadays they have LIGHTS... good enough for NIGHT CRICKET... the red ball is not totally different from a pink ball. I see that a lot of people in the crowd are holding up cell-phone lights... to give stadium lights a boost!! Main cover going on... I'm calling "Stumps" Stumps - Day 4 India 622/7d Australia 300 & 6/0 * (4 ov) (f/o) Australia trail by 316 runs with 10 wickets remaining So all the cricket pussies could manage in a "day's play" was a Lunch break, a tea break, and 21.2 overs!!! HOPELESS! |

India deserve the win, and Australia deserve to lose. They need a reality check and a new selection of players... at least a team with potential. STILL I see the assumption that Smith and Warner coming back, and close to the same squad otherwise selected. I for one will be LESS inclined to seak out Australian games if Smith and Warner are back, and the rest of the team have proven to be losers. Umpires "milking" this rain/bad light excuse. Covers still on so the "early start" is toast. NO PLAY TODAY... but they are "taking lunch" as scheduled (12:30pm ) 2.30pm And play is called off! This game a Draw India win the 4-Test series 2-1! |

RAIN: May delay start/interrupt play Ten-minute delay to the start. We will be underway at 1.30pm assuming there are no more interruptions. Play started... but they went off for rain after just 2 balls. I HOPE the obvious disruptions to play now.. and more possible later... inspires batsmen to get on with the game while they can. IF there is a DL calculation later... the team batting second have the advantage of at least KNOWING any revised target. The team batting first just have to assume there will be lost overs, and need for higher RR. The DL calculation does attempt to give "credit" for not losing wickets, but really whatever run total the target is set to it is "gettable" by the side batting second. There is no prize based on no of wickets lost/not lost. As an ODI game is shortened, there is a need to bat more aggressively. An ODI can be reduced to as little as 20 overs in which case "bash and crash" becomes more acceptable. The innings reduction could come AFTER the first team have completed 50 overs... so it's a gamble how aggressively they should bat. With delays likely... I would suggest the first batting side bat nore aggressively... but that's just me Australia 104/4 * (24/50 ov) RR 4.2 Australia are batting too slow (RR 4.2)... and they are NOT retaining wickets... already 4 down after 24 overs Prediction (2x30 ov) Australia 124/5 * (30/50 ov) ===> Final score 248 (and the "the wickets in hand" caveat is borderline at 5 down) |

Innings Break Australia 230 (48.4/50 ov) (RR 4.6) (All out in less than 50 overs) Yuzvendra Chahal 6-fer (6/42). Figures are the best for any bowler in an ODI in Australia. It's a record he shares with Ajit Agarkar (rfm). No spinner before Chahal had ever managed to grab six wickets in an ODI in Australia Target for India 231 (Req. RR 4.62) I think Australia were hopeless.... about 100 runs short But.... cricket is a funny old game... we'll see! As always I think India should "try for a bonus point" as practice for the WC. Make target in 40 overs... Req. RR 5.78... not a big ask RESULT Australia 230 India 234/3 (49.2/50 ov) India won by 7 wickets (with 4 balls remaining) India WIN the series.. 3 Game ODI series Australia 1 V India 2 TOUR ENDED |
