New job?
How is it?

[Lightning McQueen]

New job?
How is it?

Yeah pretty full on, factory manager has been sick the last two days so I had to work out how to schedule the factory using a system I had 30 minutes going over.

It’s definitely a challenge but I’m up for it!!

One of the sweetest Test wins of all time
To beat India in India on that pitch is phenoMenAL
Factor in that our fast bowlers are close to redundant on these decks, meaning Lyon, leading into this match, was the only proven front line bowler in the line up

Well done to Travis '''hammer''' Head today another fantastic innings

Getting this done in 3 days means the players now have the opportunity tomorrow to perhaps fully reflect upon the 1 year anniversary of Warnie's passing

[The Dark Knight]

479 test wickets for Lyon now.

India are down hill skiers.

India are down hill skiers.

Probably a tad unfair considering they have won the last 2 series in Australia and the last test series here was pretty remarkable with there blokes out. I reckon they just expected to win once they won the toss but got the shock of there life. They have serious issues with there top to middle order though with no pant to save them.

[Brodlach]

Kohli with one 50 in his last 22 innings and 42 innings since a century

Will they ever drop him?

Hope not.

Agree with Spargo lol but I can't see India dropping Kolhi because of who they'd replace him with currently- it's either Suryakumar Yadav or KL Rahul. Unless they bring someone in from outside their current squad and 'rest' him.

I was coming from the perspective of the way they carried themselves (in particular Ashwin) after they changed the ball.

They threw in the towel very easily.

Pants has to get in sometime.
Kholis looked class but like all batsmen on shit wickets eventually ones got your name on it.

Pant plays and we may be 3-0 down. He is a huge loss for India, but we won, so suck eggs.

1135- Balls bowled across the four innings in Indore, the fourth-shortest completed Test hosted by India. The shortest completed Test in India was 842 balls when the hosts faced England in 2021 in Ahmedabad, followed by 968 balls during the India-Bangladesh Test in Kolkata in 2019 - both being day-night games. Afghanistan's debut Test in 2018 against India lasted 1028 balls, the shortest red-ball Test in India.

2012- The last instance of India losing a Test at home when they won the toss - against England at Eden Gardens. India won the toss in 22 matches at home since that defeat before the Indore Test, winning 19 games and drawing three.


9- Wickets for spinners in Indore when batters played on the back foot. In the first two matches of the series, the spinners got only four wickets each when the batters were playing on the back foot.

1998- Australia's last Test win in India after losing the toss had come in Bangalore in 1998. All four Tests won by Australia in India during this 25-year period have come when they have won the toss.

3-3- DRS score of India and Australia in Indore, with both teams having three successful reviews each. However, Australia did not review twice in the very first over of the match against Rohit Sharma, which would have overturned the on-field decision.

4-2- Decisions by the on-field umpires, Joel Wilson and Nitin Menon, reversed in the Indore Test. Four out of the 11 DRS review calls against Wilson were reversed, while two were against Menon. India and Australia collectively missed three review chances against Menon that would have been successful.

3- All three matches in the current India-Australia series were won by the team losing the toss. It is only the fourth bilateral Test series hosted by India where three or more matches were won despite losing the toss.

3870- Balls bowled in the three matches during the ongoing Test series. These are the fourth-fewest balls bowled across the first three matches of a Test series (completed Tests). Since 1900, only one Test series had fewer balls bowled across the first three matches than the India-Australia series - 3411 balls in the series between England and South Africa last year.
