Bloody good batting.

Plausible if Clarke goes early. I'll say 10-20%.
Australia probably can't win unless Lyon wakes up, draw might be doable though. Worse, it's our bowling rather than our batting that's the problem, so I doubt we can recover the series like your lot did.

121. Dhoni blasted it straight back at Clarke who got a hand to it

It was not a real drop. He flogged a ball back at Clarke when he was bowling and he managed to get a hand on it somehow. Basically stopped four. He was on around 130 from memory.

This is an ATG level innings (for a keeper at least)
Not only has he scored 200+, he has done it at an incredible rate and that too whist batting mostly with the lower order in a critical stage of the game!
I am usually one of the first ones to criticize him when he's not going well...

Good batting display from Dhoni, Kohli and Tendulkar. I have to admit that Dhoni is now getting close to that best-ever Indian wicketkeeper-batsman title (in spite of his keeping, and his batting outside the SC).
Wonder what PEWS has to say about Dhoni's inning today.

Tbh I really admire Dhoni and tbf that was an awesome innings ftr. Now I feel part of the gang 
Just astonishing dominance when u consider India were in a difficult spot when he came in, at danger of conceding a first innings lead and then facing a tricky chase.
He has all but guaranteed that India will not lose this Test. I'd love to see Australia finish them off quickly tomorrow and bat well to set up some sort of an exciting finish but that is wishful thinking at the moment.
I freely admit I thought 300 was gonna be a good first inning score on that pitch and that 380 was well above par. But then again so did all the commentators, including those I****** X****** G***** Y***s.
The Aussies haven't bowled great but with just a bit of luck things would have been WAY different today and they would have had a first innings lead. So it's kinda ridiculous to be talking about them as if they are now Bangladesh (the way many on cricinfo are) and have no chance of winning this or any of the Tests in this series.

Holy **** thats one of the best innings ever by a wicketkeeper surely. Lots of people, including me criticized MSD for never delivering a big critical test innings, but boy has he shut me up. Well done, sir
Dhoni's problem is with bounce and movement (not pace per se) so in that regard, this is the perfect place for him to face Pattinson
