    The collapse has arrived, we've lost about 4/5 in the last five overs.

    But jeez this pitch looks unplayable. Cummins just was bowled by one that kept impossibly low, while Paine and Khawaja were caught by balls that reared off good lengths.

    Lead is currently 241, which looks like it should be enough. If India can chase it down then they are doing very well indeed.

    And that's why test cricket is so awesome. If the Indians can chase that, they bloody deserve their win. That 40 run lead is so critical right nwo

    This last partnership is killing India's chances. Hilarious, must be frustrating the hell out of them.

    287 on that pitch against that attack? No chance. 1-1 heading in to Boxing Day. Beautiful.

    At least India will have something to blame if they lose.

    Loving the cut of Paine's jib right now. Batting well, captaining well, keeping well, and taking no shit from the opposition either.

    Michael Clarke can get fucked

    I've been looking for someone to hate ever since Haddin retired. This bloke sounds like he has potential.

    250 seemed even money. 287 is a bridge too far. Will take something ridiculous to get there

    The Indian openers remind me of the Black Caps golden era of the mid 90’s.

    The two Blairs?

    you didn't upvote yourself 🙂 Don't worry - I did that for you.

    Lyon though - some player. I remember when people seriously thoguht offspin could be finished in test cricket. People were crushing them all over the park.

    @nta perfectly timed for when the fox coverage turned up the stump mic muted the commentators for a few balls

    You could still hear some giggling from Border in the box though
