Wheels Patto! 150 clicks and knocks over Vijay. Pattinson's my series dark horse, reminds me so much of Kasprowicz who ate up Indian conditions

Make it two! Sehwag gone

Funny wickets. I thought the first one was a no ball and the 2nd one was very unlucky for the batsman.

Going to need more out of Lyon today. We picked up 3 relatively early wickets and really needed him to chime in with 1 or 2 in the last session yesterday. He was a little stiff on the LBW shout against Tendulkar but hasn't asked enough questions apart from that. I feel Clarke needs to bowl a little more. The style of attack we have picked is relying on uneven bounce and natural variation so we need to be in the game on day 5. Really crucial first session coming up with a couple of wickets needed.

Game still pretty even, lead of 26, two wickets in hand

We can't let then get another 40 or 50 though.

Henriques nabbed his first wicket which is a nice reward.

This is starting to get away from us now. Dhoni has just notched up his highest test score.

Up to 64 now and Dhoni doesn't look like stopping.

91 now and Dhoni is smashing Lyon for 6's.....

Re: First Test- India V Australia, Chennai

Lyon has been a huge disappointment... Has bowled far too straight on a turning pitch. To bowl just 1 maiden in 40 overs is embarrassing.

The horse has well and truly bolted, Siddle is the guy who has disappointed me the most, needed more from the attack leader

For a dour battler Cowan sure does throw his wicket away playing the big shots.

He's just a bit of a nothing player. Doesn't really know how to dig in - just gives the appearance of being a dour opener because he has limited shot making. I was really keen on Cowan being in the side at first - but the way he gets 'in' and then throws it away routinely at 30 - he'd be the first player I'd drop.

I guess in good news...we aren't batting last!

Does the track in anyway suit Siddle? I wouldn't have thought so.

Surely there has to be some sort of World standard for wickets. That (and typical in India) is a disgrace.

I get the feeling will be the last team to bat though
