They bowled their full 90 on time yesterday too. Guess it helps when the spinner is the only bowler not leaking like a sieve so he keeps bowling haha

That would involve bowlers or a captain who can read a situation and use their brains. A skill india doesn't have

For someone who loves to gob off Kohli is an apalling skipper

I think he could possibly be India's shortest standing captain of all time. He won't be there long.

Due to the fact that the lowest dismissal has been Dumb Shane for 81 its a fair to say the pitch is playing OK. It might be time to up the anti a bit and get to 600 with plenty of time left in the days play even if it is all out.

Its would be tough for these two lads playing for their spots but it needs to be done. As i write this it sounds like Mr. is starting to play a few more shots.

Hopefully Haddin, Johno and Rhino all bring genuine intent.

Even if it is an easy batting pitch Id love to see Burns make some runs. I really rate him

yep, went aggressive the whole way and always played for the win even though it was an unlikely result. Has lead from the front with the bat, and hasnt backed down with the on field banter. Going to be a gun for the next 5-8 years

I think you may have a secret KOHLI crush there coach. Think you need to stay away from the curry as it is playing emotional games with you. He he he lol ;)

curry is always an emotional experience, maybe not at the point of eating but later on...

As long as he doesn't have a Watson like brain fart or throw it away chasing quick runs I reckon you'll see him ton up today

I agree with this. He could have gone defensive but didn't. Some people hate it but I like his in your face attitude. Try and take it to the Aussies rather than roll over

I like his aggressiveness, but tactically when things aren't going his way like yesterday is an area that seems to need some work. He is new to the job though so that will come in time. He isn't helped by not really having any senior players around him to bounce ideas off.

This test he has been horrible so far. Ran up the white flag as soon as he lost the toss.
Seems his only tactic is to hope the Aussies get themselves out or hurry to a declaration
