The MCG is usually a result venue despite the drop-in pitch.
Weather not an issue.
Will India implode after luck and circumstances haven't gone their way so far?
Backing Aus, but avoiding a big red on India pre-match.
Big toss to win.

Just curious pxb, why avoid big red on India prematch?
The bigger the red on India the better for mine. Big red on India away from home is a wonderful sight. They're well on course for a predictable 4-0 hammering and man am I loving it. Time and time again the Indians show themselves to be sooky little cry babies when things are going against them. They whinge and bitch and moan till they get things their own way, and if they don't get things their own way they throw their toys out the pram all the more. In Oz the poms are well known for their whingeing but they have nothing on the Indians. India you are PATHETIC. |

Yeah India - Australia tests are a bit of a waste of time - both teams are utterly clueless playing in the other
teams home conditions. |

Charkitz, my reply to you got lost.
In summary, India has a very good top 5. With luck and better umpiring, more than capable of a big score. Australia lose Warner and Smith cheaply, then they are in trouble. |

Fair enough.
Personally I tend not to analyse cricket matches that way. In fact I don't even look at the team lineups really, maybe a quick glance but that's it. But each to their own I guess. The weather is the only thing I look at, no rain and it's a massive back of Oz for me. They'll be ups and downs throughout the test but you just know Oz will get the job done in the end. |

india have actually played pretty well in the first 2 tests. certainly been well in them for long periods which is more than you can say for their total surrender in the last 3 in england

With on form Mitchell Johnson, a fast scoring rate and the MCG crowd behind them, Australia should have enough impetus to win again. 1.6 is a bit mean though so will be looking to top up at a better price as the match progresses.

An MCG pitch where teams don't generally last more than 90 overs, may favour India, whose bowlers fade badly after that point.
Hoping for some showers around start of play tomorow to get the draw moving. |

looking forward to the debut of Joe Burns, he's a great player

This ground is a fortress. I really fancy the Aussies in this test.

By:
You'd have to fancy Aus here but I have taken a lay of them ( small obviously ) early days.

India do not want to compete let alone win. How can you keep dropping catches! |
|
By:
Been a shambles in the field since the first run.
|

By:
F me India will make the England ODI side look good shocking fielding too
|
|
By:
apart from the blip of Warner, exactly to MCC script so far imo
|

By:
This one's easy isn't it? Lay Australia @ 1.5 and Back the draw @ 4.5 ish. Wait until the odds flip flop and reverse, making sure you have more green on Aus than the draw.
Adjust the amounts of each back & lay to reflect the amount of red you are comfortable with on India. For me I'm reasonably comfortable with a dcent amount. |

India are looking beaten on the first day, their fielding has been very poor

By:
India value here IMO, a still new ball in the morning, pick up a few wickets and have AUS all out for
|
|
By:
Where the hell did that forecast for rain on Monday come from?? Was forecast to be sunny when I looked this morning...
Not panicking, still think Oz will get the job done. But rain is the only thing that can stop them |

The game is interestingly poised in my view with Aus in the slightly stronger position. I am continuing to lay Aus in small amounts only. Runs on the board is most important here and they have a platform to build on. A long way to go. I will look to reverse after India have batted hopefully on the best batting days.
I would rather lay Aus than back India. India cannot trust themsleves so how are we supposed to? I am betting on them putting up a decent show with the bat first up and am prepared to lose some gamble money. Can't honestly say I expect them to win or draw this test but hope they can do well enough to cause some doubt. |
