Yep, wasn't going to last. A handy 20 though, India will breathe a big sigh of relief

[canefan]

Almost erased the dedicit

[KiwiMurph]

Kane used up the team's luck.

[canefan]

We need Tim to have an on day today. Quick fire 20

[Chris B.]

Needed another couple of yards on that one. But, he's done some damage. A bit more patience might have been in order.

India 25 runs ahead.

In comes Timmy.

[Donsteppa]

Wags will be grumpy at not batting 9 😊

If ever there was a pitch and situation tailor made for someone who bats with total disregard for the team's situation this is it. Go Timbo.

Yup. Green light

[canefan]

Even if we are bowled out soon, India will have to set a target if they plan to try to bowl us out for the win. Draw still most likely. And I don't see our two opening bowlers doing that poorly again

Attacking from the other end (even if costing two wickets) does seem to have opened things up for Kane a wee bit - slightly more defensive fields, less discipline with their lines.

[Donsteppa]

And Foodbill de Mullet is overdue to do something genius with the ball too.

Need the tail to wag us into a first innings lead.

200 hundred up

Not sure if the sun has helped a bit too. Definitely feels a little easier right now. Just a wee bit

Next stop is the moral victory that is the first innings lead
