Good god, the cheating aussie bastards, appealing for a catch when the ball quite obviously never got anywhere near the bat.
Who do they think they are, Pakistan?

Who do they think they are, Pakistan?
Pujara:- 28 off 129
Kohli:- 27 off 79
Who da fuck India are with that slow scoring rate ... England?
^Well with names like that, they could both easily be in the England team
it was a decent day, Aussies bowled well, India dug in. A couple of late wickets helped.
6/233
Great Test cricket for viewers today. Australia 4-66 and that could've been a whole lot worse after India dropped 2 catches, another chance but the ball didn't quite carry, and missed run out opportunity. In comes Green on debut, I know nothing about him besides him looking to be about 7ft tall. Good weather forecast and the ball should start swinging once the sun goes down. Pass the popcorn
What a great leader Kohli is.
Respect.
Bounce causing the batsmen plenty of problems.
agreed, 100%
Aussies are in heaps of trouble.
I made an error above in saying the Indians were scoring sooooooooooo slowly.
... the old adage ... Never judge a pitch until both sides have batted.
---
Oh, I had $7 on both sides scoring 250 and both Kolhi and Smith scoring 30 ... paying, what I thought, juicy odds of $4.75
How wrong I was!
That will be on Australia to win the Gabba test
The bet I wanted on this match was Australia OR India @ $1.08
But that option disappeared after the toss ... would have had $100 on that as I was sure there would be no draw on the Adelaide pitch and the 5 day weather forecast was good.
They are when it comes to Test cricket.
It's all about in-play betting these days on platforms like Betfair. Have a look at the historics of how the odds swing over the course of most games, punters who know what they're doing will place a dozen or more small bets over the 5 days of a Test till they get into a situation where they've got (for example) $100 on each team winning @ 4.25 and $50 on the draw @ 8.50 at which point they lean back, put their interlocked fingers behind their heads, and enjoy the game knowing no matter what the result is they make money. Doesn't always work out, but if their first bet is on the favourite it's hard to lose.
I can't remember a more amazing 4 or 5 overs in Test Cricket this century.
16th over - Cummins (who has 4-12 so far!)
India 244 & 26-6 (18 overs)
Drinks: India lead by 79 runs with 4 wickets remaining
EDIT 1:- India 244 & 7- 26
Josh Hazlewood has 3-3 !
EDIT 2:- only 1 ball later!
Josh Hazlewood has 4-3 ! ... and that was his 200th Test wicket.

India's lowest total to date was 42 at Lords against England
Tomorrow? This'll all be over before the sun sets tonight!
I missed the last one (retired hurt) ... cutting up cabana and cheese for me and the rugrats (which forced me to open a bottle of 2015 cab sav .. damm, it's corked!)
NEW WORLD RECORD for India
Lowest test match score ever! for India
Life is good
^ Strike rates look good
Aussies won the strike and are now 3/38
Smith out for a duck.
Not exactly a good start.
At least we've equalled the Indians last innings score.
I hate to say it, but the Aussies need David Warner back fast.
Well it's good to have a competitive series.
