Australia tour of India 2017 - Test Series

[Arsalan]

Keep in view the large number of Indian members we have on our forum, i think it is relevant to open a separate thread to cover the Australian tour of India, Test Series.

Expecting some excellent cricket to be played. While India have a strong batting side and a huge home advantage, Australia is Australia!!

Best of luck to both teams and i hope we cricket lovers get some entertaining matches.

@anant_s bro can you tag some cricket lovers from your side of the border to make it lively?

If anyone have highlights or the video link to the dismissals so far in two days, please do share.

Australia has done mighty well today and for the first time in this test season India is on the mat.

& Virat gets out on a Duck, probably to prove he too is human.

Exactly!!
dont know what is the matter but i could not get any complete highlights for the first two days or even a video of all the wickets etc
They are not there in youtube.


@anant_s do share if you find some.
You are right about Kohli. It was a soft dismissal as well. However i wont say that this is the first time India find themselves in some trouble. The first test against Engla d was somewhat similar as well up to first 2 inngs. anyway, saving this will be a daunting task even if Indian bowlers get the aussies out cheaply tomorrow morning.

Enjoyed India's collapse. Too boring, india always wins. For God's sakes how many tests are being played in india ?

@Arsalan - think Star India has a bunch of ppl working overtime to take down anything that gets put up on youtube

Found day 2 highlights - actually only partial highlights...it changes to some other crap halfway through

Indian collapse

Agony ends for India and frankly its a welcome reality check. The team was playing good cricket but it was becoming all too predictive. Hope it leads to some shakeup and a new set of players get chance.

The problem was the pitch. To be honest, i think the Indians were to defensive/on back foot when the decided to opt for this kind of track. It was a minefield and it was the Indian batting lineup what fell victim to it. The Aussies applied themselves brilliantly and got the result in their favor! Should not forget Steven Smith's absolutely incredible knock and Steven o Keefe was mighty impressive bowling in both innings.

no such special thread on India .....................................about

I do not think this post was even worth a reply and i think your country mate @anant_s can explain you how it was just for the love of game. However all i want to mention to you is "at least look at when the thread was made" IT WAS BEFORE INDIA LOST THE GAME.
Utterly disappointed with this kind of mind set!!

My post was based on some observations , the thread was not made before the match but yesterday when it was certain that India will going to lose , your intentions may be different maybe not , but going by the past record of some Pakistani members & threads like one by windjammer I will like to stand by my post

Think what you want to!!
Just spare the sports and let us people enjoy the game. If you have any differences with windjammer or any other member, take it up with them or the management here, if you think they are biased and useless, there is no point in being part of the forum. It is as simple as that.

One more thing, i think that the next match will be played on a true pitch. Track that will offer something to both bowlers and batsmen and then it will be played out in much much better way. Looking forward to the game already.

True.
Pune pitch was almost as bad as a flat dead wicket.
test matches ending inside 3 days isn't good for the game.

The Aussies applied themselves brilliantly and got the result in their favor!

Well they certainly were better prepared.
& this isn't an excuse but i think some sort of fatigue is setting in for Indian Players. I don't know if cramming so many tests in one season was a good idea.

hi @nik141993
i think you are referring to other thread where trolling was in full flow (both sides). I chose not to comment there
Do browse through some other cricket threads in this section, you'll find some simpler cricket loving people from Bangladesh, SL, Pakistan and India.

Indians fell in their own trap.
