ha - could reword it the other way as not sure if we really us expect to win or lose this

a win would give the side a massive boost and momentum for the year ahead

Seriously nervous about what the next 2 hours will reveal. We simply must win. If we fold and fail to chase 76 then we may never win in India again. Hopefully we don’t just bat to survive and crawl along at 1.5 runs an over. Be positive, looks to score, but don’t be reckless.

India were $15 last night.
I had $15 on them - figured it was a win/win situation.

I hope you’re right but the 3 substantial batting collapses have scarred me. I don’t put it past us to have another one today.

So I put a $10 on them yesterday once Australia collapsed at $2.10 :woozy_face:

Put another $10 on them at $9.

Win-win.

If batsmen get out to good deliveries then so be it; the last thing I want to see is players throwing their wickets away with abysmal shot selection.

Didn’t look like he hit it, but replay making a fool of me.
Bad luck, son.

That was a pretty good delivery; Khwaja didn’t do alot wrong, maybe played a little to hard at the ball.

9949

But yet the start everyone expected :sweat_smile:

This series has been just comical; you could never script this sort of situation.

Look he’s got out, but you have to know you’ve hit it surely?
