stays very leg side of the ball. Wonder what his record vs L arm pace is...

Not picture perfect but that technique is perfect for sub continent and even Aussie. Only when there lateral movement there could be issues but who's perfect anyways.

Whatever it takes!!!
Gill could work as a #4 or 5 anywhere tbh. Can see why they were keen on him batting 4 before Rahul injured himself.
On another note, @OverratedSanity was right about the fields to Pujara. He definitely needs to work on going aerial over the field a couple of times if he wants to get back to his bread and butter way of milking spinners. You cannot be so obstinate as a cricketer that you will refuse to play certain shots completely over your career.

Jamieson has a good chance to become Newzealand's greatest bowler after Sir Richard.

He has good attributes and he is in a purple patch now but a lot can go wrong. Players of that height hardly ever stay fit for too long, and who knows how injuries impact his bowling. He bowled well here but make no mistake, these are as good in terms of conditions as he will get in India. If he plays in March for example, it won't be the same.
The good thing about him for now is that he does not give up the hard length that he is blessed with, due to his height. So he will always be reasonably economical even if he never runs through a side in a hurry like a Southee or Boult can on a greentop. So he can maintain his average low enough to play a role and if he keeps nicking the odd batsman out, 2/50 sorta spells are more helpful in SC than people realize for a new ball bowler or a seamer.

Beg to differ. The ball isn't bouncing above knee height.
I've seen some much more pace friendly conditions in India.

Also can't remember hearing Cork on Comms before. Don't mind him so far.
