    wheels now falling off, will we see form of tail resistance?

    A lead of 200 is like enforcing the follow on. It's good.

    Um, it's the Black Caps. Hopefully rain will save us.

    Some fucking nice catches in that compilation

    NGL I'd be pretty happy having made some of those shots.

    Whether or not he gets his hundred (on 99 as I type) Ravindra looks like he could be very special when he bats like this. All needs is consistenty.

    Very special innings by Rachin. Really mature knock.

    4 wickets in the session but we've scored at such a good rate that the session belongs to us still. Southee actually scoring runs... what an insane match this is

    Southee scoring anything these days is a blessing, removing another Indian record is a fantastic bonus

    I'm almost lost for words.

    I'd thought a lead of 200 was the bare minimum I'd be happy with - and for a good part of the morning it looked like we'd fall well short as Blundell and Phillips made it look like a minefield. I was going to write - once he got out - that Rachin looked a class above those two.

    Was thinking we should have followed someone's earlier thought and played Chapman to bat at 8.

    Then wondering WTF Timmy was batting at 9 for - and thinking Rachin should be turning down singles.

    Then these two start playing something like Botham and Dilley at Headingley.

    I wonder if we were better off with the pitch playing like the minefield than the road - but, honestly, I've got no idea how it's playing!

    Southee 'giving himself a chance' for a change. The long handle is waaaay easier when you've faced 30 balls rather than 5. Although, he did have some early slots, but was lucky enough to miss.

    While, Rachin. Just pure class.

    Great knock Ravindra, I hope this is a sign of things to come.

    A very handy lead, 300 needed just for us to bat again is a good spot to be in

    I’ve had one bottle of home brew and scrolled up to do some upvotes and literally tried to upvote my own post. What a dumb fluffybunny

    Ravindra loves batting in the sub continent. Excellent century.

    @canefan

    Southee 49*
    India 46

    If you'd put money on that, you wouldn't have needed to win Lotto Powerball!
