I would rather a loss than a draw. Go down fighting.

Now Dravid's dropped Haydos.
He's giving them some chances.

Win (preferably of course), lose or draw I'd love to see Haydos make mountain of runs in this last dig.

I'm with you on that. He's looking to score quickly as well which is why he's giving them some chances. Makes for good viewing though.

We're still above the required run rate which is about the only positive right now.

Wish they'd been playing like this last week when I was on leave and could watch it lol, at least they're having a dip which is about all we could reasonably ask I guess.

Gavaskar must be getting nervous. He's bagging the Indians for sloppy fielding.

Lunch Aussies are 3/111.
Over rate: 10.4 / hour
Rn Rate: 4.56

21.3 overs in that session. Deplorable over rate. It is actually farcical the delaying tactics the Indians are using although the Aussies weren't any better.

No chance of India speeding up anytime soon either!
Considering Dinagling was bowling most of that hour, 10 overs is absoultely disgraceful.

They aren't even being subtle about it. Harbajhan is stopping between balls to stretch a couple of times an over, he's been pulling out of delivering balls for no apparent reason then taking ages to go back and start again. Surely the umpires need to step in and hurry them along.

You'd just love to see us get close, the Indians go from strength to strength when they get on top, but they can get a bit wobbly under heat when they can see the finish line imho.
