Hussey was also not out. Hawk-eye shows ball was bouncing over the stumps. So now Aussies are at the receiving end. Symonds got what he deserved after being helped by Bucknor in the Sydney Test. Wonder who the umpires are for the final Test at Adelaide. That might be crucial for the outcome of the series.

Sir, you take this match granted. Still I feel that match is open given the attacking aussies style.

The target goes below the 200 mark with their last recognized pair in action. Both Gilli and Clarke are talented to go for quick runs when their tail gets exposed and their bowlers too has got the grit

Well at least the umpires have been consistent. Tendulkar was also technically 'not out' in the first innings if one goes by the same line of arguement.

As for Symonds, like Harsha said the wheel has turned a full circle.

Hawk-eye is wrong. The pitch has lost a bit of bounce. So the ball was crashing on the stumps.

I think India has their back to the wall now.

Clarke has steamed up the gas once Symonds left and a breakthrough now is necessary as they are approaching nice and steady.

Something extraordinary has to happen for Aussies to win under these conditions. Kumble will be a handful as the match progresses and India will get the second new ball in about 21 overs. If they get a wicket before then I think India is through.

Gilly gone... yeeaayyy...

VJ_MAVRICK · 19th January 2008, 12:16

I think this attacking aussie style will be their undoing - I agree with rks. Apna team pe kuch tho barosa karo yaar - you make it sound like they're the only ones who want to win here.

STOP PRESS - Gilly GONE!

Surprise · 19th January 2008, 12:18

And yes, the bowling changed worked and Gill was out for Shewag. What a relief that was.

Still 186 runs..

It would be interesting if Clarke-Lee partnership goes nearly 100 runs

diabloo · 19th January 2008, 12:22

Why not 186

?

Now the game hangs in balance.

If Lee goes - Clarke will go on attack mode but if Lee sticks - we might have tough times

normally_crazy · 19th January 2008, 12:25

Lee gone - hell yeaa
