Absolute bullshit - apart from day 4, when did they outplay us?

Well done Peter Handscomb, showed some real balls there as did Shaun Marsh. Great for Pete to make a decent score today.

To win the series Warner needs to put his big boy pants on and actually do something. Every other player has at some stage stepped up but not him.
C'monDavy the next test is your time to shine

Ive finished my bitch now. Apart from the last session of the last Test we have made India work for absolutely everything. To then respond like today is just an absolute credit to those blokes. Bowled the most overs in an innings in 23 years and then we produce that! What an effort.

I'm backing these blokes to win the next Test...

No chance,an absolute match winner when on song

Resting one of the spinners for Sweepson, gives the attack some variation

Yep awesome stuff. Handscomb might have been starting to feel the warmth of the selector blow torch recently but has extinguished that threat.

All eyes turn to Warner now, but he will play the decider.

Agree but his average against Ashwin over nearly 20 innings shows he simply can't play spin over there

His technique is flawed on turning pitches and I'm not sure he has any answers on how to change his fortunes, his tried both the more attacking and defensive styles

I'm not sure I would have the balls to drop him but if the selectors did it would be hard to argue with them especially since we got to this position with a horses for courses approach

Back him in. Don't change a thing boys! Someone has to crack next Test.... Don't forget India have to win, they are under the pump big time.

I liked the fact that India kept going with the spinners until the end. Got plenty of overs in to Jadeja and Ashwin to go woth there first 2 tests of workload.

Yes our boys bowled plenty as well but remember Cummins is fresh of the plane.

Will be real interesting to see what pitch the Indians produce for the last considering its win or bust for them

Can't be a road but they wouldn't want it to be impossible on day 5 either just in case they lose the toss

I think they'll back themselves in with bit of a turner. Not a Pune shit farm but still a solid turner.

Lyon (and Ashwin) would be missing Starc's footmarks.

A real Test match this one and a quick turnaround to Dharamsala - which looks like a pretty spectacular ground.

Will Warner and/or Kohli fire in the 4th Test?

The series is perfectly set.

I mustvl say we have been pretty competitive over there. More so than I gave us credit for.
