    This is a terrible batting performance by Phillips he is reading nothing and all at sea.
    Going back to Washington will get him bowled or LBW

      Santner down the other end doing a really good job.

        We've somewhat squandered a good start that could have seen us almost bat them out of the game. I still think if we can get past 300 then we are right in it, a couple of early Indian wickets chasing more than that will have them under a lot of pressure.

        India will score 400 plus on this wkt no problem.

          @Chris Ye of little faith! Pressure is a funny thing and after the first test all of the pressure is on India. You would expect them to score 400, but you also would expect them to score more than 46 in the first test 🙂

            What a waste by Philips. Just a nothing shot

              The joys of fielding a Test number 6 with a batting average of 35.

              That’s pretty standard for loads of sides though ?

              That’s very often where the keeper/all rounder bats.

              They can’t all be Border, S Waugh, Hussey etc

              Those loads of other sides may not always be good 🙂 Rishabh might be an outlier, but we still have to out play him to have a chance of a series win.

                Terrible Phillips outclassed today totally picked the wrong ball to hit over mid off.

                  Blundell is safe at six though, partly because Philips also isn't knocking the door down with the bat...

                    Australia have Marsh at six ( averaging 30 ) England have Stokes ( 35 )

                    So basically it’s very standard.

                    Fuck, another one down

                      We will see my money is on a big Indian score
                      With Gill and Washington they are a much stronger batting line up.
                      They also scored 462 in the 2nd innings this is a typical Indian pitch they will go well on it.

                        Stokes also bowls when not broken, and doesn't drop regulation chances with the gloves.

                          Yup. I see them getting a big score and beating us having to only bat once

                            Yeah we are not comparing Stokes and Marsh’s batting to Blundel either which is not good enough to bat at 8.

                                    In India more so a batsman than a bowler, either way right now I will take any runs we can get

                                      They've really done a number on this pitch. It has little cut marks on it, almost like the machine they use on golf greens. I'm sure they've done it to slow the pitch down, to create variable bounce and to encourage it to break up faster

                                        Can't blame a number 10 for that, but looks to me like a pitch you have to force yourself to play forward on regardless of instincts, unless it's dropped really short.

                                          About 150 runs short, but maybe we'll be lucky.
