I reckon Ricky will look for a lead of about 330, he'll want to ensure India has no chance of winning and that might actually enhance Australia's chances of winning because trying to bat out time on a final day wicket might be tougher than actually playing positively towards a target
In Sydney in the New Year Test, Australia set India 333 in 71 overs on the last day

Sorry Kash, missed your post. Where to start....
I don't know how much you know or don't know, but to answer your question, how many outs till its over?
There is essentially 11 players on each side. You bat with a partner, so that when your side has 10 out they are all out, as the remaining player can't bat on his own. He is said to be 'not out'. He can kind of be thought of as left on base in a baseball game.
So 10 out is all out.
So in the current game, Australia need 8 more wickets (outs) and they win.
For India to win, they need 272 more runs (atm).
The only other constraint is time. There is 69 overs left. So if India can't score the runs (which is looking like they won't) BUT don't get all out, the game will be a draw.
I've probably just confused you more, sorry

.... that actually cleared up a lot! thanks for taking the time to explain a bit of it to me .. this seems like a very strategic sport (seems interesting to me)
hopefully the aussie's win!

Tough hard grind for our bowlers over there this series. Obviously we lack quality in the spin dept. but I don't think our quicks are entirely downpat with the straighter line they need to bowl once the ball gets older and pitch slows down as it invariably does over there.

M.Clarke might might might be good for some runs this time. Had Delhi Belly before day 1 and 2nd innings had to go for it a bit or was off day. Feeling pressure of "being No.1 spin option"??????He might be "chomping at the bit" for a good hit out.
Maybe even S. Clark due for a good return.
Another draw??

Well done Battler
See if we can get the in the 2nd test on Friday.

Stuey Clark played injured, so I'd expect him to bounce back if fit for the second test
