What an incredible scorecard to walk up to. Santner's test career is over and Jamieson just got outbowled by Siraj. Nice

Cricketer Of The Year
Let us all be totally honest, is there anyone who didn't expect this to happen?
Playing test cricket in India is just a total waste of time, and I look forward to the day test cricket is banned there.
That may not happen, but in effect it can if teams decide to boycott test matches there.
This may sound harsh on India, but after watching England play a series there last year, it just isn't cricket.
On day 1, after each ball landed on the pitch a huge puff of dust came up, and so it went for every ball left in the test.
In reality just a joke, pitches in the back yard are more reliable.
Are there others who think the same or am I just thinking too deep about it all?

That explains why Siraj absolutely wrecked the top order and could/should have had like 5 wickets.

Lol pitch is fine.. Have you seen the mambas which India got in 2020 in NZ? Why don't offer India a test match at Mount Maunganui instead of Christchurch or Basin reserve when we tour NZ? Then we'll talk

I was hoping for at least a meme six or two from Southee before he inevitably got out, but no.

Let it go. Let's be gracious in defeat.
