Aus in with a good chance, worried about India playing slow for the draw though. Need our big bowlers to stop making mistakes and take clean wickets without controversy

Statistics suggest Aus should win, but given our history of bottling games we "should" win I'm feeling a little pessimist. Plus Cummins and Starc have been looking decidedly rusty :/

Yeah Cummins especially, I think starc is just plain worn out these days. Boland is super consistent and doing work but if India is playing slow I don't think he has the tricks to get through them

He is on fire tonight! I always laugh when I see his stats and his best is 6-7, must be rough knowing you will probably never beat that
