🏏Australia vs India, 3rd Test: Brisbane, 14 - 18 Dec 2024, Day 5 🏏 - Page 42

Mitchell Starc to Jadeja, 1 run, 50 for RJ, he was brought into this Test mainly for his batting and he hasn't let his team down, brings out the trademark sword celebration, nudged one in front of mid-on and called his partner across for a quick single, his 22nd in Tests

14:23 Local Time, 04:23 GMT, 09:53 IST: It has started to rain and the umpires are quick to get the players off. We will continmue to lose overs and the Indian will not mind it one bit. This could be the 7th or 8th rain stoppage during the course of their batting and it has helped no one to be frank

We could be waiting awhile here. Plenty of time debate India's selection

khan: "When Ashwin bats we want Jadeja in the Team, when Jadeja bowls we want Ashwin in the team. Jadeja gives a edge in the field but you can always call him as a sub."

Ajith: "Jadeja is your best middle order batsman overseas. Period. We must stop looking at him as a spinner who bats. He is a batsman who bowls! That will solve how they fit him into the team!"

avinash: "Simple solution drop Rohit , play jedeja at 6 and Sundar at 7 and Nithish at 8 and ask top 5 to bat well which they are selected for , of any of the allrounder comes good with ball we are good , I don't akash bowled really that bad , siraj can bowl little better and I hope Bumrah is rested entire week will help him"

Krishna: "Conversations need to be held about the positions of Rohit, Gill and Kohli. Jadeja deserves to play on his batting alone and Ashwin on his bowling alone. Benching our greatest match winners and backing the batters despite bad performances is not a good look"

Christian Thurs: "I've always been a fan of the asking yourself: "who is the opposition most afraid of us selecting?" as a way to sanity check the team sheet. To a person every Aussie cricket fan would be stoked whenever India doesn't select Jadeja, and not happy when they read his name in the line up. That tells you something."

Azhagar: This match reminds me of Ashes 4th test when ENG could have won the match but rain saved AUS costed them Ashes as well.

KT: Even though Nitish reddy got out cheaply, happy to see him grinding out and playing according to the situation rather than playing his shots which he did in his earlier innings.

Pankaj: There are more sessions of rain in this match rather than match sessions!

We should've started the post-tea session by now, but it's still raining and we'll continue to lose overs. As I type, the covers are coming off and play should be imminent. Light and rain permitting, we can go on until 6:20 pm

is there another innings or is this it for this test?

8th wkt down. Oh god this is terrible
