One more wicket here really opens the game up given that Nair hasn't had a particularly good series and the non-specialists start after that. Don't think Smith/Cummins would mind Rahane going for some pulls.

Rahane has to be one of the worst starters, temperamentally, I've seen. He seems to have no conception of the phrase "get yourself in first".

Lineup looks so weak with only Nair the only specialist batsman to come. Rahane needs to understand that and not be a dumb ****.

Our problem is one end is just essentially defensive. Spinners seem entirely incapable of taking wickets.

What's worse is that Rahane is captain this test, you'd think he'd be extra careful and aware of the situation. I know he's a compulsive hooker but come on dude, THIS IS THE MOMENT OF THE SERIES. You play sensibly till we get close to their total and then have a go when its time to stretch the lead.

So glad we have Pujara at the other end. Plz play out the quicks for us dude

Rahane reminds me of an Allan Border but with gumption to his strokeplay.

At last, a captain I can respect.
