Reckon it was a pre determined decision from Boof, doubt Smith had much say

Disagree. We only need a draw to win the series. What happens if we bowl ourselves into the ground today going for the win and India get the runs? Risk losing the toss in Sydney with a fatigued bowling group with the series still alive....the media would tear shreds off the captain and bowlers for losing the series from 2 zip up.

would have liked to seen Smith declare last night but albeit he didn't, again hypothetical if we would have won.
Cant say anything against Smith, has jumped into the role as Captain and has done a good job.
Australia need to come up with a plan re Kohli though, seems to me they just bowl and rely on him making a mistake, in saying that he seems pretty much the complete player.
Overall so far we have been lucky we have a tail that can bat and score runs in partnerships and the opposition has no tail whatsoever, not forgetting the job that Warner,Smith have done. Also as much as it hurts to say was very impressed with S Marsh in the 2nd innings here.
Great to have a series win, have enjoyed the banter on here this test, i will probably be saving you all the pain of not posting in the final test.
Well done Aussies oi oi oi

Was this just due to a lack of real hot weather?
Was this done on purpose to protect the series win?
Is it just the nature of drop in pitches?
