That’s it for us, a short and sweet day or night at the cricket. The third and deciding match will take place on Wednesday in Chennai. We’ll see you then.
Hard to get your head around that. Australia lost badly in the first match, all out 188, but they did make India work had for the win five wickets down, with some serious wobbles at the start. Today could not have been any more different, after ram-raiding the Indian batting, then looting the bowling before making a quick getaway.
Marsh opening the batting has been a revelation. He has been used at No3 a lot the last couple of years, which often isn’t much different. But it will be interesting to see what happens when Warner comes back, given Head’s proclivity for big scores up the top.
