Dirk Nannes saying that India didn't clap Smith's ton - maybe because Kohli was off the field at the time, and they had no idea what to do without him there?

I wonder if the management told them off? A couple of Indian players ran over to shake Smiths hand at the end of the day

Maxwell with a very impressive hundred. Well done to that bloke, living his dream, proving his doubters wrong.

Aus 331-4 ans well ahead in the game

Fixed.

mariner4life

@NTA i have had that thought

Donsteppa

And both of them batting ahead of MMarsh....

Donsteppa

That Smith is a reasonable batsman...

mariner4life

@Donsteppa half decent. Might have a future...

Indian opening pair doing well so far. A few near misses, but nothing consistently threatening from the bowling attack.

This Rahul bloke likes to score. They need to dry him up.

NTA

2 wickets falling today, with another 115 runs or so. Pujara digging in, while Kohli gets out to another slash with no footwork.

Out of touch.

NTA

Still - going to be a proper Test by the looks.

Cummins comeback match has been great to watch

4/59 in these conditions is impressive

Hopefully he gets at least five. That would be consecutive 5 wicket hauls 5.5 years apart

NTA

Hopefully he doesn't break himself doing it.

NTA

Cummins off. We haven't taken a wicket today. Pujara is set and racking up records. About to hit 200

NTA

And he gets it. Well played that man

mimic

Mammoth batting effort by Pujara, but I don't think anyone was surprised.. He's the new wall..

NTA

And now we're 2 down for negative runs. Not a good look, but at least one was the night watchman

The Australian top order in this series reminds me of the quip about the NZ Bowling attack with Paddles ("The World XI at one end, and the Ilford Seconds at the other"). Steve Smith and bit part contributors...

Bizarre seeing Warner play poorly.

Really want him to take it to them

He would have been happy before the series if he was told he would average more than double Kohli

Hooroo

@Duluth True that.

The Lesbian must be loving that he can't stop scoring and his opposite can't get a score in his own country. Especially given the verbals
