They had Hardik Patel bowl around the wicket to the batsmen's pads for a period of play. Who the **** does that with 2 whole days left in the match.

Bizarre

Not necessarily and you'd have points for wickets also. It has to be better than the current system which seems to produce stodge (although I suppose it does encourage the team behind on 1st innings runs to go for broke).
OK then, explain to me how you'd give bonus points so that 228 scores more bonus points then 328.

Well the game would be completely different. Patel instructed his bowlers to bowl rubbish wide of off-stump. He was already playing for a draw with the first innings lead. That probably wouldn't have happened if you got points for wickets.

You actually think this is a good system, first innings lead only requires a draw?

Doesn't have to?

First innings Mumbai 10 Guj 15
Second innings Mumbai 15 Guj 15
Third innings Mumbai 18 Guj 12
Fourth innings - draw due to rain or some ****

Mumbai win by an arbitrarily decided daemon point

Brilliant knock by Nayar. Scored 72 of his runs with the last 2 wickets. 326/8 to 411. 41 run last wicket partnership with no help from Gohli! Brilliant.

Mumbai to win this plz

Yeah the Panchal guy is the highest run scorer this year. Average near 100 for the year. And support the underdog you ****s. Mumbai has already done this 41 times.

That is basically my position also.

They were still doing the wide stuff today also. The spinner Bhatt was bowling some rubbish - one of them was (finally) given wide.

Including the international players, which is the best side atm?

Delhi/TN?

Mumbai have Sharma and Rahane but no bowlers I think. On the other hand Delhi has Kohli, Dhawan, Ishant, Shami while TN get Vijay and Ashwin. Saurashtra outside runners with domestic beasts Poojara and the triple ton specialist.
