    The next two guys have 26 test hundreds between them, that there are some good credentials

    I’m very old school. I remember in the days before the interweb it was pretty hard work to find a guys current batting/bowling average.

    It’s all at the touch of a button now but it’s always cool to see it flash up on the screen, this just happened for Rossco and lets be honest, that is a very, very good batting record from one of our stalwarts. A shade under 46 is a quality player in any era. I really hope he ends his career with 20 odd test hundreds though !!!

    Disclaimer: I hope I haven’t pulled a @canefan with this post.

    Starting to worry we’re losing wickets quite regularly now…

    Dreadful shot and an equally bad review by Nicholls. Shane Watson-esque.

    harsh - he must have thought he got outside the line

    Seeing it live I assumed he had to have edged it, otherwise he was toast.

    The review wasn't so bad. Umpires call. I wondered about outside the line.

    I notice the commentator said the umpire made a good decision to give him out,

    The same commentator would have had to say it was a good decision not to give him out also.

    Blundell just needs to be patient. Indian bowlers have lifted, but the bad balls will come.

    He played a lot of tests for someone who was basically a more marketable version of Colin De Grandholme.

    Re looking at the replay, that was very close to being completely outside off.

    Calling that a bad review is very harsh indeed. I would argue it was a very good review.

    When a batter reviews on the instant without even consulting their partner, my thinking is that they'd be wise to be certain they're well outside the line, or to have edged it. I'd be a lot happier if he'd chatted to Latham first and then reviewed. Otherwise Shane Watson and burning reviews will always come to mind.

    Now Latham's concentration fails. Latham and Young set a great platform that the batsmen who followed are not building on...

    Always good to see a test debutant off the mark first ball.
