    Re: 2023 Tour of India

    Pitch looks much better for batting today and these two are doing a very good job.

    Green is a very underrated player of spin. He's a great judge of length - gets back or forward decisively and has very nimble feet for a big man. We saw that in those few T20 innings where he opened in India and shelled them everywhere.

      He's a talented player but this pitch might test him.

          A couple of quick wickets has really changed the game.

              Was always on the cards once Handscomb or Green went. You can't blame the tail but you would think at least 1 or 2 could throw the bat and pick up a few valuable runs like Yadav did.

              I haven't been watching and obviously Handcomb and Green batted well, but should they have attacked a bit more as given the pitch it was only a matter of time before they copped a ball with their name on it?

                    Joel Wilson has given Green out based on the reviews remaining. Not a chance he gives that out if they had reviews in the bank you could see middle and off.

                      Fancy us losing 6 wickets for 11 runs, we went from 4 - 186 to all out 197

                        I feel the match is lost.

                        India currently lead by 57 with 3 wickets left.

                        Wouldn't like my life savings dependent on Australia making 60 to 100 on this wicket.

                          We won't chase down any more than 100.

                              Might be recency bias, but reckon that catch from Smith might be the best I've seen. Ridiculous catch.

                                It was unbelievable.
