Nicholls is very lucky he hasn't got a lot of competition right now

Nice jinx

I made the comment after he got out. Ross and Henry have been abject failures in this match

Ha, my sky must be lagging.

But I agree with your assessment. He’s been shite.

Why did they review that? It was out all day...

Can't roll them over to the next match I guess.

They might need it in this match yet

Blundell needs Australian tour level heroics now. I worry he goes hard at the ball a lot

Indeed. I suppose it was missing off and missing leg...

In real time it looked about as plumb as you get

[Donsteppa]

I checked the weather forecast for Kanpur about half an hour ago out of random vain hope. Only saving grace along those lines might be smog...

If we lose Kane we are fucked

[canefan]

The Indian keeper is calling his team mates Lovely Boys. Made me think of this

[canefan]

We are fucked

Thanks for that...

I suppose we can give up any curious pretence that this was ever a pitch to try and win on on day five. Especially with our gritty middle order…

Southee only knows one way, potentially it could have been let him pinch hit a bit earlier and if it fails (likely) no loss, but if it comes off, then we have something we could chase.

Now it is literally can we hold on

They only got 80 overs yesterday before the light. Here's hoping 🙏

[Donsteppa]

A lack of TSF forward planning in this one. We needed a smog machine set-up nearby for such emergencies.

[canefan]

Once Tom got out we never looked the same. Couldn't score, started getting out. We are barely hanging on now

[voodoo]

what's the equation, how many overs do we need to survive?

Minimum overs is 21.
