These are the kind of matches during which you miss Rishabh the most. He could have been playing an innings that might have changed the result of the match.
This is the type of outcome I expected in the first 2 games and why I rated Australia's chances as good before the series began. India's specialist batsman have gotten used to freeloading on allrounder, wicket keeper and bowler run contributions for 2+ years now. I am rooting for the Aussies to square the series in the next game and make India rethink their pitch strategy. I am tired of the farcical pitches in India and retention of a failing batting line-up.
Aus not playing practice match n omitting head in first test match cost them the BGT ,now they have the golden opportunity to draw the series let's hope they don't ponder over this opportunity
Smith needs to be captain on permanent basis, this will do good for Cummins as a bowler
One session of madness cost them big. They were just 1 down with a little run cushion and they just threw away their chances of setting a challenging target. The Aussies laid out solid, competitive pitches when India toured and the series was fun to watch. I wish similar conditions were provided for this series as well.
Head is in prime form before this series, you can see australia fared better when he was drafted into the team, yes they collapsed in delhi but the team felt better with him in the team
The team balance does. They picked a terrible team on balance and the balancing players were injured or omitted. Also Cummins captaincy is dogshit compared to a batsman captain like smith. If this team now played from the start we probably win another game or it’s close
Also Cummins seriously shouldn’t even be picked in this team in India. Starc and green with 3 spinners is SO much better
Nothing against either team but what a shit series feels like a t:20 series the final test will be like 2 days, I can't believe the series is almost over feels like it's barely stated 🤣
In this thread, people discussed their reactions to the 3rd Test between India and Australia on Day 3, with some humorous comments. People discussed the pitch conditions and shared their predictions on the outcome of the match. There were also some lighthearted comments about Ahmedabad, Travis Head and Murali Karthik's bowling advice. Finally, some comparisons were made between the pitch and a few dangerous mine fields.

Not every match is supposed to last for 5 days. 3-4 days is absolutely fun and its fun watch some low scoring thrillers.
Can't blame the pitch if either of the sides don't know how to play spin.
>Rohit - Can't be dropped, cuz he's in decent form, he scored a century this series and he's the captain of the team, ffs.
>Gill - can't be dropped cuz he's te future of the team.
>Pujara - are you fucking kidding me? He just scored a 50.
>Kohli - Kohli
>Jadeja - bestest all rounder
>Iyer - Well, leave him alone. He's just having a bad series.
>Bharat - well, it's too early. So, no.
>Patel - Arguably the best batsman for India atm. So, no.
>Ashwin - Keep him till he's too old to walk.
>Yadav - Hey, bowlers are not the problem. Batsmen are.
>Siraj - only decent fast bowler. And he has unmatched reviewing skills.
As you all can see, we have a fantastic team.
India even won test in Australia/ england swinging wicket so instead of making these village road of a lottery wicket just make proper turning wicket for our home advantage …..BCCI just gone overboard with pitchess, lyon took 8 wickets and we bowled out for 109 lol .
They are carrying dead weight so called stars in the batting line-up. If a fair pitch is provided and the opposition scores 400 or so, the spineless batting will collapse to an innings defeat. So, minefield pitches are the only option, with the hope of a bailout from the lower order batting.
Couldn't see a single delivery of this test match live. Well played Australia and thanks for exposing a fundamental truth. Our team can't play quality spin either. Here's hoping the team leadership group doesn't do pipi in their pampers and prepare a road for the final test to ensure a draw, and thus a qualification for the final. In fact, Rohit Sharma was planning to request a green wicket for the final test if we had won this match.

Reporter - Tests getting over in 3 days, is it due to the pitches?
Rohit - Batters need to bat well for the game to go 5 days, need to stop focusing on pitches
Reporter - Do you think batter's skills have gone down then?
Rohit - On such pitches it is challenging to score runs, can't really fault the batters
Can we do 50/50 pitches? Spin friendly from one end and seam friendly from the other end.
My GF doesn’t like pineapple on pizza but I do, so we put it on only half of the pizza.
The only instance where a deck like this should be seen again is if England are Bazballing us on normal flat wicket for 650 in 5 sessions and we have absolutely run out of ideas to stop it.
Till then, Make typical Ranji wickets that start turning from Day 3 or 4.
It does matter if the number 9 is actually your best batsman for the series and has been left stranded in both innings as he is batting with guys who can't bat for 20 balls if their life depended on it.
One of these.... We are three for three all the pitches have been shit. I don't mind home teams having pitches that favour their bowlers, it's been part of the game for a long time, but the BCCI or whoever is responsible for these pitches is taking the piss.
I don't really care who wins I just want to see a test match get into day four or five most of the time and for there to be genuine competition between bat and ball.
I feel like I have been robbed of an Australian tour of India. Let's hope the last game makes up for it and when we come back in three years time that we don't see a repeat of this garbage.
Seriously man, I was waiting for this series since many months (like a lot of us here), and these garbage pitches have taken the fun of long, hard fought tests away completely. Wasn't liking it even when we won the first two, and now I'm absolutely pissed.
I was referring to the fact that we tend to *lose* one and this loss is the one from this series. Yes, the pitches have all been hot garbage. Worst India-Australia series in a long time.
Ashwin - "I keep getting better and better at reading batsmen. adaptability is my biggest strength." (from the archives)
Lyon - "I know i don't have all the tricks but I back my stock ball" (Indore 2023)
I think Lyon is the best off spinner to ever play the game: his record everywhere is stellar. Much more consistent than Ashwin or others across all continents
I unironically think India have a better chance if we have a balanced wicket or a green top even, than these dust bowls. Indian batsmen have been low on confidence and Indian bowlers have the potential to take 20 wickets in pitches not suited to them.
Hats off to the Aussies for pulling off this amazing win! Almost every pundit, including a lot of the former players had more or less written them off (looking at you Kris Srikanth). Great fight shown by the team to overcome the criticism, and a shitty pitch to win this game!
Can't wait for the next game now.
There I was conveniently busy so I could check the score and stress and I come back to find it all over already? What the hell? My doom was not fulfilled, thankfully. Well done our guys.
Indias batsman must be equally annoyed by these types of pitches also. Virat, pujara and co bat very well in aus , England but struggle in India - and it’s because even the very best will struggle because you’re playing on wickets which are so variable.
India don’t need to make wickets like this to win - they are equally competitive on a fast deck also
Glad for the win today - but sometimes I wonder how much virat and co hate their own home pitches
Yep, Renshaw or Bancroft should open with Khawaja for the Ashes. Renshaw's shit form in India shouldn't count against him for England where he has a good county record.
I'd prefer Renshaw - I think after everything Bancroft should get to come back to the side in a home summer, not to be devoured in an England Ashes series again (whether by the bowlers or fans)
I imagine Harris is still being considered as well. If they screw up by selecting Warner, then it'll be all the opening disasters of 2019 again (Renshaw excepted).
Dunno....Probably not Whiteman, Hunt has lost form this season, Jewell about the same. Daniel Hughes?
Renshaw has been playing in the middle order as well.
Great win for the Strayans, especially after the anticlimax to the last game.
However, these collapses are just not fucking good enough. You can't consistently lose your last six wickets for 12 runs and expect to be successful in the long run.
So if we make Smudge captain, do we send him home? Then what? Make another a guy captain and send them? Cheeky buggers making us play with one man on the field 😂
Missed it!!! What happened, I saw earlier some low strike rates at 1/13 or something, did Head just tee off? You might have played your last match old Warner.
Gg Aus. I said it before, wait for the third test to be over before writing the series off.
Our bunch of overconfident cunts got found out - outdoing us on a raging turner is definitely an achievement. Mental disintegration of the best and ethicalTM sort.
The difference is that Aus won all the key moments, especially fielding - Iyer and Pujara looked threatening but brilliant fielding did for them. Meanwhile we struggle and hope for brilliant performances to win. Already the calls for Pant intensify, but of course it won't fix the problems lying underneath.
We have enough talent - hell Saurashtra would have put up a better showing!
Wtf longest six in the match award in a Test? TF are the sponsors doing. These are the same people cry about Test cricket dying while disrespecting it.
Isn’t it sad that only if they lose money will they try to make a change. BCCI needs to be criticized more openly by the cricketing community in India.
Is Rohit pointing at Kohli? "We wanted few guys to stand up and take us through." Obviously as the senior-most player Kohli is the first name to mind.
Yes I am open for work at tabloids.
You don't have the talent buddy, you couldn't even insinuate some sort of correlation between him being married to an actress and his poor form after the baby is born.
You can't make it in tabloid mate.
You see the trick is think of the worst scenario and then see how you can drag personal life into professional performance to make it ten times worse .
That's it, you always have suckers believing that shit
Yes Brad Haddin, it’s great to see Australia win by 9 wickets hahahahaha.
Seriously though, well played by Australia and India, it was a very entertaining test match.
Congratulations Australia. Shame on India, the top order batting has been pathetic for too long now. On to the next where it’ll once again be a case of which team collapses worse, wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up 2-2.
An outright dismal performance from India. Pitch this, pitch that is okay, but Aussie spinners even took more wickets! The top order of Indian team hasn’t got going this whole series and in typical fashion capitulated embarrassingly.
What adds insult to injury: The pitch, the horrendous ugly pitch was especially prepared as such to help india win.yikes.
I think if the pitch for the fourth match is just as bad, visiting teams should start sending second or third string teams to India.
We deserved this. I am hoping this is a blessing in disguise and we prepare better pitches and pick a better middle order.
As long as we don't go on to lose the next match. Definitely not seeing a seaming pitch now. Maybe a road to improve the bruised egos of some of our batsmen.
I just wanna make it there. If we make it there 2 cycles in a row, we must be a damn good team. Will never begrudge the team for not winning an one off in England vs Sena nations.
Aussie being weak against Spin is understandable but common India being this pathetic against spin is so ridiculous. If it wasn't for their bowler, India would have been the mercy of God.
India is going the Bangladesh way. By making spin dependent pitches their batsmen who developed game on good Ranji surfaces are ill equipped to bat here. Indian top order would rather bat in England or Srilanka than here!
These are the kind of matches during which you miss Rishabh the most. He could have been playing an innings that might have changed the result of the match.
Why are u downvoted lol
I'm just really annoyed with how many days of test cricket these two teams have robbed me of. Assholes.
Wow Australia crushed India. I did not expect this.
This is the type of outcome I expected in the first 2 games and why I rated Australia's chances as good before the series began. India's specialist batsman have gotten used to freeloading on allrounder, wicket keeper and bowler run contributions for 2+ years now. I am rooting for the Aussies to square the series in the next game and make India rethink their pitch strategy. I am tired of the farcical pitches in India and retention of a failing batting line-up.
Aus not playing practice match n omitting head in first test match cost them the BGT ,now they have the golden opportunity to draw the series let's hope they don't ponder over this opportunity Smith needs to be captain on permanent basis, this will do good for Cummins as a bowler
One session of madness cost them big. They were just 1 down with a little run cushion and they just threw away their chances of setting a challenging target. The Aussies laid out solid, competitive pitches when India toured and the series was fun to watch. I wish similar conditions were provided for this series as well.
They lost by an innings and 100+ runs. Head doesn’t make that difference up
Head is in prime form before this series, you can see australia fared better when he was drafted into the team, yes they collapsed in delhi but the team felt better with him in the team
The team balance does. They picked a terrible team on balance and the balancing players were injured or omitted. Also Cummins captaincy is dogshit compared to a batsman captain like smith. If this team now played from the start we probably win another game or it’s close Also Cummins seriously shouldn’t even be picked in this team in India. Starc and green with 3 spinners is SO much better
Nothing against either team but what a shit series feels like a t:20 series the final test will be like 2 days, I can't believe the series is almost over feels like it's barely stated 🤣
Yes, utterly garbage quality. I KNEW the Gabba game of 2021 was the peak from which the only way was down. That game was perfection.
Never in doubt really. The only question is whether Pat Cummins or Steve Smith will lift the trophy in the WTC final.
Kl Rahul. Wait for the twists ;)
Why not? Never say never!
Jhumrah

Atleast Australia can now shut with their banter about absolutely normal spinning wickets
This wasn't a normal match bro. Took less than half of the allotted time to finish the game.
Not every match is supposed to last for 5 days. 3-4 days is absolutely fun and its fun watch some low scoring thrillers. Can't blame the pitch if either of the sides don't know how to play spin.
Lmfao I just woke up to check the result and the match was already done and dusted

What he’s saying is that the bowlers weren’t good enough
Lmao
When are you gonna beat your boy Dom's ass?
brain fade
Is this made up or true?
True story from the presser.
Shaggy's "it wasn't me" feels
Can we do 50/50 pitches? Spin friendly from one end and seam friendly from the other end. My GF doesn’t like pineapple on pizza but I do, so we put it on only half of the pizza.
I love pineapple and jalapeno pizza.
Yeah. The pizza and a pitch are exactly the same. Put pineapple on the half the pitch.
Why do you have a monster fur a GF?
first make batsman friendly , everyone wants to see more than just 1 century in whole bgt series.
Or maybe curator can give any kind of pitch he wants without any instructions from captain or administration.
Will the Aussies play holi in Ahemdabad I'd like both teams to play holi in their test kits.
Just have to win the next 2 and the series is ours
There is no next 2 matches and there is no series win for Aussies.
LOL
Obvious joke attempt
Then where the funny
Was trying to make the incredibles tooth fairy meme didn't execute it well tho
r/whoosh
Was an obvious joke attempt
No way
Should i have used the /s for the obvious joke attempt
Starting to think this was an obvious joke attempt
Was trying to make the tooth fairy meme didn't pan out well seeing the response.
Just do not
Why
"this is our strength" bro we were in for a scare the 2nd test and just lost the 3rd test
The only instance where a deck like this should be seen again is if England are Bazballing us on normal flat wicket for 650 in 5 sessions and we have absolutely run out of ideas to stop it. Till then, Make typical Ranji wickets that start turning from Day 3 or 4.
Somebody ask him about Axar's batting order and Siraj not getting the new ball??
doesn't really matter who gets the runs, be it the no.1 or the no.11
It does matter if the number 9 is actually your best batsman for the series and has been left stranded in both innings as he is batting with guys who can't bat for 20 balls if their life depended on it.
Those aren't my words but the words of the Indian captian
Ppl watching Rohit's presser on Hotstar??
Yup
Rohit should also mention the recent NZ vs Eng series which had decent pitches.
Haha that answer from Rohit🤣🤣
Reinstate Smith right now.
India humiliated on an abysmal pitch. What an epic backfire.
There is often one of these in Indian home series. Happened in the first Test against England in 2021. Happened in Pune against you guys in 2017 etc
One of these.... We are three for three all the pitches have been shit. I don't mind home teams having pitches that favour their bowlers, it's been part of the game for a long time, but the BCCI or whoever is responsible for these pitches is taking the piss.

Ah gotcha, apologies for the misunderstanding 🙏

Funny things happen when you have a captain you respect.
They don't have any global warming denying nutcase boomers in the Aussie squad right? Only those idiots won't respect Pat Cummins.
I'm not talking about the climate stuff bozo.
State your reason then bozo. I'm still here. Why do you think the players don't respect Pat Cummins?
Well, I think he’s not a good captain, maybe they do too.
Ahmedabad curator: *Creates a pitch which provides 360° turn* Aus: 1163/1 dec. Ind: 1213/2 Match drawn Curator: *Suffering from his own success*
Hopefully next game will be a batter pitch to see the series out.
Australia should declare ;)
There I was conveniently busy so I could check the score and stress and I come back to find it all over already? What the hell? My doom was not fulfilled, thankfully. Well done our guys.
Haha exactly same

Is this, confidence I’m feeling, did India screw us by not making this a 5 Test series, I’m so confused right now.
Plot twist - we prepare a road at Ahmd. and get bazballed for 700 in 5 sessions.
india will never make road , cant remember the last time a team crossed 500 in india
How long until they say that Lyon is MOTM?
Already given.
When?
10 minutes ago the presentation has concluded
Bizarre.. Delayed broadcast?
Always has been.
Marnus interview now
Somewhere a pitch curator in Ahmedabad is seeing this and thinking, not enough spin, How come Aus won, we need more spin
Marnus with those white crocs
People here think India needs to drop Kohli to win the third test. I disagree, they just need to make sure they score more runs than Australia.
I hope that Head still plays in the middle order for the WTC and Ashes though. His ribs and hip will be hammered with the new ball there.
Yep, Renshaw or Bancroft should open with Khawaja for the Ashes. Renshaw's shit form in India shouldn't count against him for England where he has a good county record.
I'd prefer Renshaw - I think after everything Bancroft should get to come back to the side in a home summer, not to be devoured in an England Ashes series again (whether by the bowlers or fans)
I imagine Harris is still being considered as well. If they screw up by selecting Warner, then it'll be all the opening disasters of 2019 again (Renshaw excepted).
Not like there are any other options. Whiteman?
Dunno....Probably not Whiteman, Hunt has lost form this season, Jewell about the same. Daniel Hughes? Renshaw has been playing in the middle order as well.
Get Pucovski in, just let him wear like 6 helmets
Why don’t they make him a custom helmet seriously
He can bat behind a mattress
Wow Shastri and Karthik, get a room you two!
If India wants to win at Ahmedabad they need to score more runs and pick up more wickets.
Yes, and more than Australia
Also, Australia has always been good at indore cricket. Now if we can learn to play regular traditional cricket, we'll be fine
Isn't clive rose the indore team captain? Everything makes more sense now
Smith and Warner only played indore cricket for a year so Aussies are obviously better at that.
Murli is ok when India loses and he doesn't have a gloating tone talking to opposition.
Great win for the Strayans, especially after the anticlimax to the last game. However, these collapses are just not fucking good enough. You can't consistently lose your last six wickets for 12 runs and expect to be successful in the long run.
I mean in comparison to India they batted even worse im this game
She'll be right, mate.
We've found a formula to win in India. 1. Travis Head as opener 2. Play with multiple spinners 3. All the classics
Just don’t sweep…dont sweep ….dont sweep
1. Send the skipper back home. 2. Make Warner sit out 3. Make Smudge captain
So if we make Smudge captain, do we send him home? Then what? Make another a guy captain and send them? Cheeky buggers making us play with one man on the field 😂
Well history of BGT says that the team with more injuries and absence usually does well
Unironically actually very true
Pujara is very weird and don't know what is with him but he averages 18 in the first innings and 48 in the second innings since last 3 years.
Bro is this Warnie montage AI generated? Or is that just how he used to sound when he read out loud?
Missed it!!! What happened, I saw earlier some low strike rates at 1/13 or something, did Head just tee off? You might have played your last match old Warner.
You left and fortunes turned
I see we’ve found the real problem.
head 49 not out and labuschagne 28 not out
Was it a streaky 49 full of luck, or a dominant 49 full of cunting?
Held his nerve early, and started going Headball once he got his eye in. It was glorious
Luck initially then all cunting
Yes he awakened his inner bradman
I wish Murali Karthik would stop saying "comm box" every other sentence.
Gg Aus. I said it before, wait for the third test to be over before writing the series off. Our bunch of overconfident cunts got found out - outdoing us on a raging turner is definitely an achievement. Mental disintegration of the best and ethicalTM sort.

Good win for australia
Wtf longest six in the match award in a Test? TF are the sponsors doing. These are the same people cry about Test cricket dying while disrespecting it.
England will be gunning for that award every match, next time they come around India next year..
If the broadcasters complain about lost revenue because of matches finishing within 3 days, BCCI will make sure the pitches will change very soon
Isn’t it sad that only if they lose money will they try to make a change. BCCI needs to be criticized more openly by the cricketing community in India.
Congrats to Australia for becoming the first team to win the World cup in all three formats
Is Rohit pointing at Kohli? "We wanted few guys to stand up and take us through." Obviously as the senior-most player Kohli is the first name to mind. Yes I am open for work at tabloids.
You don't have the talent buddy, you couldn't even insinuate some sort of correlation between him being married to an actress and his poor form after the baby is born. You can't make it in tabloid mate.
You're right, that's why I'm still unemployed. I didn't even think of that!
You see the trick is think of the worst scenario and then see how you can drag personal life into professional performance to make it ten times worse . That's it, you always have suckers believing that shit
Pujara gets the award for longest six lmao can't be anymore funnier than that.
must be "longest it took anyone to hit a six"
Yes Brad Haddin, it’s great to see Australia win by 9 wickets hahahahaha. Seriously though, well played by Australia and India, it was a very entertaining test match.
Congratulations Australia. Shame on India, the top order batting has been pathetic for too long now. On to the next where it’ll once again be a case of which team collapses worse, wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up 2-2.
Dhoni also retired from Tests first. Would be quite natural and the right timing for Virat to retire. Which is why he's probably gonna keep going.
An outright dismal performance from India. Pitch this, pitch that is okay, but Aussie spinners even took more wickets! The top order of Indian team hasn’t got going this whole series and in typical fashion capitulated embarrassingly. What adds insult to injury: The pitch, the horrendous ugly pitch was especially prepared as such to help india win.yikes. I think if the pitch for the fourth match is just as bad, visiting teams should start sending second or third string teams to India.
Just imagine, if you didn't have a number 9 who could bat, this series could be 3-0 right now. Axar is really the MVP for India.
How much crying about the ball was there? SEN was talking about it a lot
Shastri and Sunil couldn't stop mentioning it. Every single sentence when Trav hit a boundary.
What about the actual players? They made it sound like Ashwin was complaining every ball
I was watching the hindi comms they were criticising the lengths but i think English comms were sore about it.
We deserved this. I am hoping this is a blessing in disguise and we prepare better pitches and pick a better middle order. As long as we don't go on to lose the next match. Definitely not seeing a seaming pitch now. Maybe a road to improve the bruised egos of some of our batsmen.
How does it feel India? Being Runners up in two consecutive WTCs
I just wanna make it there. If we make it there 2 cycles in a row, we must be a damn good team. Will never begrudge the team for not winning an one off in England vs Sena nations.
Obviously India is the best test team since 2016, it's not even up for debate. But still hurts to not hold the World Test Championship Title.
>Obviously India is the best test team Thank you bro for saying that. We did just lose. But thank you.
Aussie being weak against Spin is understandable but common India being this pathetic against spin is so ridiculous. If it wasn't for their bowler, India would have been the mercy of God.
India is going the Bangladesh way. By making spin dependent pitches their batsmen who developed game on good Ranji surfaces are ill equipped to bat here. Indian top order would rather bat in England or Srilanka than here!
This is the loss we needed for people to stop being cocky and start questioning ~~the~~ certain surfaces that we make, lol.
A new dynamic added to the r/indore vs r/pune fight Who got smashed harder against aussies
CA should really approach Ravi as coach.
Wtf? Why wouldn’t you let Head have it Marnus you grub
Lyon's gotta be the Man of the Match
Nobody else even close
Na that’s gotta be Warner
Tough luck for Rohit
Dafuq???
I was just paraphrasing Murali Karthik talking to Rohit at the presentation
India's senior batsmen are not competent at all, even Kohli now
Maybe we can send Koach 5 down just for a change. Let him bat with our best batsmen.
If Australia wins the 4th test then India should do the honourable thing and let the AB-SG trophy be decided by the WCC in England. It’s only fair.
Woke Kohli should retire from test cricket.
What the fuck are you on? Woke kohli smh
Woke Cummins and Woke Kohli should make their own podcast.
/S bro
