The gap between the 2 as players, light years.

He is a bowling all rounder in my eyes, when he bowls well, that tight line and length and jags 1 or 2 an innings we play well. He is not a no 3, 6 or 7 yes.

It seems like when they do try and keep the moisture in the drops ins they crack up a lot more as well. They have prepared Indian pitches for Aust, blasphemy!!!

This one has been really hard to watch, glad in back at work. Big Mitch is very hard to replace as a spectacle. Flat tracks, yawn.

Shame big Mitch is out of the 4th test, will it be Siddle, Starc or Agar to come in? He has given us enough in the past but don't see us winning with Sids or any of those in and no MJ.

Not a fan of Tom Cruise but Edge of Tomorrow is really interesting. The concept of going over the same day, rather than Groundhog Day, it is reliving his death over and over.

Fawad is unlucky.

Would be amazed if burns goes our

Agree TD they lost the series for Christ sake.

Or it could be Watson dropped and Agar comes in, keep the 3 quicks and add a 2nd spinner. I just hope Harris is fit to play he looked sore at the end. Can't believe the negativity in the reporting from the Age this morning. Saying a soft declaration, not enough over, why gift Marsh a 100. I thought for a match played in that flat a wicket to have a contest into day 5 was a great achievement. They forgot to mention the rain delays causing list time.

I mentioned earlier in the test Kholi was breathing down Dhoni neck and if you make as much as D does from cricket test matches might not be his cuppa. Really interested to see the new generation coming through Indian cricket. They have the flash with the tatts, manicured beards, bling and an aggressive nature. If they can put that together with some of the skill they have, look out SA, Eng and Aussie. Watson if he plays should be a bowling all rounder batting 6 or lower not a no 3 but only if Smith moves to 3 at this point. Lyon has had his best series ever I can't see him being dropped, well only for injury. Maybe a quick goes out and Agar in if it is a turner on the SCG deck? Otherwise no change.

Yea right, I thought Dhoni would at least see the series out, weak as pi ss. He did make $30m this year apparently.. F me I should have taken cricket seriously. Another great test in the series. We win the trophy back!! Both teams have some way to go but like Nasher love Rhino and how good is Hazlewood going to be? The next McGrath or is he more of a pistol with his swing rather than movement off the seam. Johnson over was just brilliant. Both teams batted well in parts in a belter of a deck, next year can we please have some turn though. Bring on Sydney with the angry Sikh in charge.

Smith not a fan on Lyon?

Come in Aussies!!!! Hammer them!

400 on this deck would be a reachable target for the Indian line up.

Hiding and trying to not lose everything. Book royalties?

When 40yr olds are still start players of the game it's lost me. Need this partnership to stick.

Haven't they, if they had a tail and didnt let ours go on with it each innings it might be 2-0 the other way. The stupid T20 glide has claimed a few this match.

Mate I played at a low level but I never took a watch out to train all I know is it always took too long. Didnt want to know how long to go on the track or in the game it was just trying to push through the pain and trying to beat everyone in my group in as many 100s as possible, without spewing.

Marsh needs a big one here, we are sh I ting the bed here. Still a ridiculously flat track with very little in it and we are 5- not many only 240 in front. Lot of talk out on the ground, love it. Hopefully we show the likes of Kholi up. It has gone from us looking like a draw and a series win was on the cards to India now in front.

Depends GTG, when I had to do them it was "jog" back and go again but you did them in a group so you were doing them as quick as the last bloke in the group getting back to the start line. Not a lot of science, a lot of testing of the mental side.

Was a great partnership from both of the Indian bats, outstanding in fact. Really enjoyed watching it but we let it last to long with the dropped catches. Kholi has been a joy to watch all series. Now enjoying Warner having a flash.

Potential for a little rain today as well.

Keeper says but as someone who like yourself has played behind the stumps you also need to make your own judgements on pace, bounce of the bowler/pitch on your positioning. So looking fwd to tomorrow play, it can go either way from here. Both teams have weakness within the batting but it is such a perfect batting deck I think the draw is more likely. It still hasn't turned a great deal but days 2-3 are the best to bat at the G with the rubbish drop ins.

Macca you make your own choices on the field. He was loose all day. By the by, I think his bowling is under-rated and he should be a bowling all rounder not a batting all rounder.
