India 5/280 at Tea.

Thankfully the Aussie bowlers finally got both Pant and Pujara out. Now it all comes down to the last session.

Paine should spend less time on sledging and more focus on not dropping catches x3 :facepalm.

Yep. Was poor that we couldn't beat them in the last test.

If we can't beat them in the next one....
Ugh

I'd rather Maxwell > Wade

Anyone > Warner

Stuck with Paine thanks to the scandal...

Labuschange gets his ton  :clapping

Shocked that Wade is still playing.
And yet another brainfade when he was set and we had all the momentum :facepalm. Just let India back into the game  :banghead.

A few very soft dismissals today

Harris, Smith, Wade and even Labuschange

The Wade one though takes the cake  :banghead

Rain stopped play.

Going to be hard to take 18 wickets + bat again with only 9 sessions to go.

India 4/161 at Lunch.

Hazlewood got Pujara caught behind.
Then Paine finally got his field placings right putting Wade at a 4th slip where the ball had flown through about 4 times. Wade then caught Rahane off Starc's bowling.
