True but he's matured a lot, especially during the course of this series IMO. His shot selection and his decision making regarding which ball to target and which one to leave alone has been pretty good IMO.

Pant is doing my head in!!!! Rev sweep and now this slog!!!!
Would be very very surprised if they go for the win. If Aggarwal was there, they would have probably, but not now.
He keeps trying to over hit against Lyon. Losing his shape.
I'd like to keep these two till two overs 20 runs.
Ah feck still Pant facing Lyon....
Pant has lost it. Sigh.
Lost what?
It definitely is turning though.. and Cummins is freaking amazing. McGrath regen..
At this point, I would rather see Sundar on strike than Pant.
Yeah. Momentum is gone. we wont go chasing this. Draw it is.

I know nothing.

Composure. Why is he trying to hit Lyon out of the park?
Think its done now.
What a great shot
This is crazy
Paine 
Those 2 boundaries against Cummins has won it for India.
Harsh on Cummins though, has bowled his heart out.

Paine
Turned like a leg break guys, not much Paine could do
25 of the last 8 balls..
need 24 from 36.
need 24 from 36.
Yes but still pretty fecking funny
He looked exhausted. Shouldnt have been bowling. A couple of overs rest.. and back again.. he has been bowling since they took the new ball.
Another Paine masterclass.
Whatever happens here, we've found 4 players for the first team: Gill, Pant, Washington and Siraj.
He was the only one with a chance to win the game though.
Needed more support today and he got none.
Hazelwood.. Green for a couple of overs.. give him 20 mins rest. Bowling a 7 over spell.. expecting a 10 over spell from a fast bowler in the last hour of a 5 day test is madness.
Horrendous series from Australia. Super impressive from India. Well deserved.
Australia used up all their luck in the 1st match
Falling our way now.. this is over.
What a performance.
What a performance.
Love to see it
Great and brave cricket from India. Have unearthed some real talent in this series.
Who needs Kohli eh?
Who needs Kohli eh?
Paine has to go as captain he cannot handle any sort of pressure.
So this Australian bowling attack, at home, have failed to take 20 wickets in 3 tests out of 4.
Poor bowling.. excellent batting.. both..
Poor bowling.. excellent batting.. both..
Also poor fielding.
OMG. The dreaded 3!
fecks sake
Oh FFS!!! Washington why???
why?
So stupid by Sundar. Why would you reverse sweep at a time like this?
The curse of the 3 strikes again.
Nerves from young guy sadly
