was about to write something after that shot.. how demoralising is to England to see tailender scoring a half. Respect to Ashwin... he will havr to come out and open the bowling as soon as he gets off.
Ashwin’s a genuine all rounder who averages nearly 28 in test cricket. He’s no tailender.

Gavaskar is a poor commentator and nauseating to listen to.

Which is a shame as Ajit Agarkar, Murali Kartik and Butch have been excellent.

It's more the circumsatnces that he has made this ton. None of the genuine batsmen have made significant runs since Sharma got his 161. It was a superb knock which has taen the game out of the reach of England.

Test cricket has been so good over this past month.

India in Australia. Proper ding dong battle. India got off the ropes and cleaned their pipes!
England in Sri Lanka. Root imperious
SA in Pakistan. Big nation visiting Pakistan again is awesome (even though we got smashed)
Windies in Bangladesh. Run chase out of this world and a tight second test too.

Loving it

what suprised me was after he went up to the ump complaining why it wasn't out, the umps didn't change his mindand give it out.. no more tests for that ump after Koli does his ump report;)

I think Ben Stokes needs to have a quiet word with him...;)
