I'm claiming all these wickets.

I'm claiming all these wickets.

what....... all of them?

seems greedy, fluffy

I think in my lifetime watching cricket, Rohit Sharma batting in Indian conditions might be the toughest player to bowl to in any specific situation. His average at home is now over 80.... which isnt a country mile away from being Bradman-esque.

[Durhamfootman]

India can be very grateful to him today

[Durhamfootman]

After preventing Aus from rolling the tail cheaply, Axar is now turning the screw a little. 8th wicket partneship is now over 60

[sussexpob]

Partnership currently killing the match, one has to think

[mikesiva]

Jadeja and Axar hit half centuries.

Two left handers doing OK on this pitch.

[sussexpob]

Axar is proving to be some cricketer in these conditions at home. Averages something ridiculous like just over 10 a wicket at home, and the first time someone actually keeps him from running amok with the ball in his hand, he duly turns up and kills the game with the bat.

Thankless task playing India at home

Oz attack should have more bite to it in 2nd test...with starc, Hazelwood and green all likely to be available

[bigfluffylemon]

Chastening couple of days for Oz

[mikesiva]

India 400 all out

Rohit 120
Jadeja 70
Axar 84

Murphy 7-124

[Durhamfootman]

91 ao

India win by an innings and 132 runs

Australia have some thinking to do

[mikesiva]

Australia 91 all out

Smith 25*

Ashwin 5-37

A shocking batting performance.

[Durhamfootman]

32 overs only

[GarlicJam]

That was dire.

Full points to India though, they did not miss a trick.
