Hope India win. Kohli have good chance to score twin ton which turn into winning cause. But I would respect Michael Clark for showing sportsman spirit and declare inning on same last night score instead of stretching inning towards lunch which could have been safe for them. India 369 in first inning on single inning so 363 looks gettable.

What a great test match. And Kohli was fantastic, Felt really bad for him when the middle order started collapsing.
But its amazing that he was still going for the chase instead of getting defensive and going into a shell, which is exactly what Dhoni would have done IMO. But we still missed Dhoni. He wouldnt have played that horrendous shot which Saha played

Riveting last day. Sad that India lost since they came close to winning it. I also liked how they went for the win (normally India wouldn't do that). It was a respectable loss.
I don't think Rohit Sharma and Dhawan should be in the test team, both seem like average test match players (especially outside of the subcontinent). Dhoni should replace one of them in the 2nd test (if he plays), it'll probably be Saha though.

Clarke gave them Every reason to go for the win. Even if they took their time and played sedately it was still an achievable target. That was one heck of a risk from Clarke. I don't think it was a special chase or anything, it was the only option because there was plenty of time and overs left. But that is what cost them the game.
Having said that, what a special knock from Kohli. Hope this doesn't stay as a blot on his resume like Sachin's hundred against Pakistan still does even today. Gotta get it done. Kohli will have more opportunities. Hope he converts one of these. Special talent. Gotta calm down though. Embarrassing to watch him cuss for everything.

I stopped watching mainstream cricket a long time back, but checked the scorecard seeing some of the reactions on social media. Have to say, it was a match played in the right spirit by both teams - well done! gangsta, please tell me what you search for to get this forum on Tapatalk |

Interestingly I see what your problem is. I have no idea what to search inside tapatalk. None of my searches returned results. I may have actually opened the site on the mobile browser and the a link to tapatalk might have popped up in there. Have you tried that?

^ I never got that popup. May be because it's a Windows Phone, let me try a different phone.

MSD retires from Test Cricket effective immediately
It was on the cards, but its odd that he retired mid-series.

^yeah i'm surprised too though I do think it's about time he did retire from captaincy at least, but not necessarily the game entirely.
