Stumbled up India v SA T20 in Jo’berg. SA chasing a massive 285!! India’s second string seam bowlers are bowling bananas… 10/4 in 3 overs!! Friday night popcorn

Calling those bowlers second string is a bit harsh, all very experienced t20 players- unlike our bowlers at the moment (apart from Archer and Rashid)

I agree… but whenever I see India without Bhumra, it feels incomplete..

Interesting first day in Aus v Ind Test. When I looked to watch it on catch up, Virgin asked me for my pin as it was age restricted - I assumed the stump mike was picking up Aussie sledging but perhaps they don’t want children witnessing collapses of this kind.

Two things stand out watching todays test, Bumrah looks nigh on unplayable on this pitch and for a sports mad nation there are a lot of empty seats for the first day of a mouthwatering series.

It looks like they are trying to copy England with their versions of Bazball.......

woke up to Aus bundled out for 104… India have a lead!! Who would have thought that would happen.
Suddenly the pitch seems to have died, maybe we will get proper test match for 3 days

It seems Ozball is much worse than Bazball, although the endless bouncing of tale enders seems contagious....
