lol....he is quite a character.

Any possibility of a result is now disappearing fast. We have 24 wickets and a little more than a day to go on a pitch that still looks good for batting.

Australia should comfortably win this match by 10 wickets in the afternoon session tomorrow (remember what happened last year against England!)

Sehwag gets dropped by Clark. Another sitter bites the dust.

I can't believe how poor are fielding has been in this test , costing us the possibility of a win.

I hope not
there are still no demons in the pitch
but i also agree that on final day anything is possible,especially our batsmen are very susceptible to part time spin duo of symonds and michael clarke than the fast bowlers on final day pitch

Yes, the fielding has not been upto the mark. Australia have a few things to address when the series gets over.

I dont think the Indian batting will tumble opening the gates for Australia unless Kumble asks his batsmen to fire away 250/300 runs in 50 overs and invite Australia to bat again. From the way the Indians batted today, I dont think thats happening.

I can't beleive how terrible Michael Clarke's catching has been. Keep him right out of the slips.

India 1-45 at stumps Australia all out 561 and we are starting to see the odd half pitch grubber.

Good luck tommorow batting. For all the hype of the Adelaide oval it has played slow and has not given the bowlers a fair go.

The curator at Adelaide gets a long period to prepare the pitch unlike other pitches in Australia that have to wait until football is over before they start. It's a very disapointing pitch considering the amount of time he has had.

Thanks Django, but even with your well-intended inverse predictions, I doubt if India can manage to win tomorrow. It'll be a draw.

Maybe so, but the Kiwi "Mr Turkey" is right here in these forums. No prizes for guessing.

There are no demons in the pitch, but I am bit nervous about India's batting which has shown to be fragile in the second innings. They need to bat for at least 60 overs and score 225 plus to be considered safe.

Really! I thought that with exceptional spin bowler like Harbhajan in the side, India will easily destroy Australia.
