I like how he got out, looked aghast and then shadow batted the exact same defensive prod. Practice a leave you ****.

Ha, I was too busy going nuts along with the rest of the stadium. I’m not even supporting England, it was just impossible not to get caught up in. The 30,000 people losing their **** while Kohli tried to act like nothing had happened was what made it so funny.

They spent 20 minutes faffing about and then went off when 3 drops fell onto the umpire's hat.
That's cricket.

Here's a Chennai comment:
Gaurav: "I don't think Anderson would have played this many matches had he needed to ball in Chennai in 50 degree celcius. Quite possible, he wouldn't gve chosen to become a fast bowler too." -- I'm from Chennai, and while it can get incredibly hot, 50 degrees is a massive exaggeration. On Anderson, yeah. England have done very well to preserve him and use him very sparingly on Asian tours, where he bowls when the ball is new and when the ball is reversing, but doesn't bowl too many long spells otherwise.
@honestbharani , you have any 2 cents to add?

Apparently Sibley has dropped 7 out of 18 chances that have come his way in test cricket.
EDIT
I've just seen yesterday's drop for the first time, and it was really poor. I don't know who else in the side can field there. It's tempting to suggest Bairstow, but I know that's a different skill-set really.

But possibly the forecast was wrong. Play is now scheduled to restart at 17.00 local time.
EDIT
And re-stop at 17.02 local time.

Play for the day has been abandoned.
Anderson's bowling one of longest overs in test history.

Anyone wanting to look into this may want to go back to when test matches still had a rest day before Days 4 and 5 and a wicket fell in the last over on Day 3.

I am Chennaite
It got worse when my train journey home took almost 4 hours when it should have been well under 2.
All worth it though because @Uppercut bought me a beer and let me talk about how good Ivan Toney is at penalties. The cricket was actually pretty fun as well.

He said literally nothing wrong. I dare any of the geniuses here to prove otherwise.
