Was Kohli out in the slips? Looked liked the ball partly touched the grass.
Never the less, it was a good innings and well played. Totally deserved it!

Some elite honesty from the Australian fielders perchance?  :(

I’d imagine if it was any other team on the receiving end, the commentators would’ve said clearly bounced.

Part and parcel of playing against aus in aus, those type of decisions have always gone to the home side. Irrespective of who’s the third umpire

With a new born that doesn’t sleep between 2am and 6am was a good chance to watch the match early this morning and as much as for some reason I just don’t like Kohli ( I bit like ronaldo) the guy is a league above all others on show and was a superb ton. He really is the stand out batter amongst both teams.
Indian pace attack also out bowling the Aussie quicks on there own turf at the moment, starc looking off the boil but Hazelwood and Cummings are starting to look like the real deal now with consistent performances series after series and staying fit. Hope the babe stays awake tonight as looks like could be a great days Test cricket tomorrow

Just going to mention this, but Nathan Lyon is a mighty fine bowler. Another Michelle for him today.
All the talk about Kohli, he seems to have slipped under the radar a bit.

Ball clearly touched grass..I don't understand the finger underneath the ball rule, if the ball touched ground, it should be not out, though in this case it looked like the ball touched the ground and then rolled onto the finger. Soft signal rule is really crazy one for sure..

People always do - he is dismissed as a 'clubbie', I think he's a fine bowler.

However, I believe many experts think he is more effective on Aussie pitched, do to his reliance on overspin.

Would he get in our side?

Lyon didn’t do anything remotely decent. One top order wicket. Pant hitting out and three tailenders. When you play on such a fiery pitch a lollipop bowler can get a cheap bagful

Lyon has been world class for a few years now, anyone who would blatantly dismiss that probably doesn't know much about the game.

On the Handscomb catch, I've always been of the opinion that they should scrap the soft signal and 3rd umpire, they only make things more confusing, if the player claims it and the umpire believes it to be out, then time to go. Any dishonest players will get found out pretty quickly.

And if anyone didn't understand why there needed to be a cultural review in Australian cricket, watching some of kholis antics this test has convinced me that it was completely necessary. A Great batsman, but a petulant child.

To be fair, for years I was one of those who though him little more than a clubbie - and at the time, I think I was right. But he has improved out of all recognition and is probably near enough the first name on the Aussie team sheet. As with a lot of players, his game has naturally developed to his natural conditions but he has done well in a lot of environments.

287 for India to win - don’t see them getting anywhere close to that.

The move to the bigger stadium looks to have paid off. Seems to be at least 75 spectators in the ground!

Seems pretty similar to KL Rahuls catch at the end of the last test. Evidence for both not conclusive, the difference is Hazelwood probably isn't under the impression that he is bigger than the game, and he accepted the decision and walked off.
