Probably just floundered away $200 backing the draw at 70/1

So who here a fortnight ago would have thought Santner being out was a loss?

Pray for rain my dude.

Or, your gonna have a cold 14k in 5 days. Imagine what you could do with that. Hookers and coke galore. You could also fund clothes and schoolbooks for disadvantaged school kids but that's nerd ****.

 

[anonymouskefe]

ouch

 

[ashley bach]

Jeez that's a hell of a ball from DC

 

[King Kane]

Rachin bowled by Washington the same way as Latham, you can't blame me for that one, it was too early in his innings for me to talk him up.

 

[Howsie]

Can’t really blame Latham or Rachin, can’t do much against bowling like that.

Edit: Who is the fat **** getting in Rachin’s face?

 

[Zinzan]

Ahh, the Santner news took a bit of air out of the balloon. Sodhi hasn't been the worst Test spinner of late, but I suspect his regular long hops will be capitalised on.

Very good toss to win, so really wanting 330+ which looks a long way away now.

Slightly disappointed Ravindra didn't learn from his last dismissal against the same bowler at Pune, but beautifully bowled Washington.

Mitchell needs a score. He can't dine off that great series he had in England forever.

 

[King Kane]

We need to get to lunch without losing any more wickets, I have more faith in Young being there at lunch than Mitchell on a turning pitch like this one,

 

[Nintendo]

India think they are the hunter. But they are the hunted. Sodhi is JAWS, and they are a clueless 18 year old in the summer of 75.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

On a more serious note, the SENA posters here should know the early morning moisture is a thing in our winters. Pitch usually settles down from session 2 or hour 3 and flattens out.

 

[King Kane]

Kartik doing bad ABBA karaoke.

Still better than his cricket commentary.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

The way he is going Washington must play in Aus. They ain't gonna play 3 spinners there. So this game is now a Jadashwin bowl off.

 

[Skyliner]

India think they are the hunter. But they are the hunted. Sodhi is JAWS, and they are a clueless 18 year old in the summer of 75.

Terrifying.

 

[King Kane]

Jadeja bowling hand grenades, lunch can't come quick enough.

 

[ataraxia]

Sodhi's very lucky to get a test here, hope he shows he's up to it but I'm not holding my breath. Delport's probably the leading domestic spinner at the moment, and if a leggie were to be selected I'd plump for Ashok over Sodhi.

 

[King Kane]

Mitchell telling Pant and the Indian fielders to STFU, fair enough too.

Four overthrows, some justice there,

 

[Prince EWS]

Sodhi's very lucky to get a test here

Eh I dunno, Ajaz has been pretty disappointing, I'd have been thinking about bringing Sodhi in for him anyway tbh.

 

[straw man]

Good session of cricket, think India would be the slightly happier team having dismissed Rachin as the third wicket. NZ could really use a first second* score in these subcontinent tours from Mitchell.

* forgot his fifty in SL.
