1. The pitch is almost Pakistan levels of flat. 2. Tongue, Carse, Woakes were ordinary in line, length, and discipline. There was no sustained pressure. 3. Stokes was brilliant, Bashir was good. But they had no support. 4. Gill was determined and watchful. So was Pant!

It's all stupid, but he's our kind of stupid. And the best kind of stupid. Pant is easily the most exciting and best test batter of this generation. No jokes.

Me enjoying jasprit Bumrah bowling 🥹♥️

7 innings for 71. Almost a round figure.

This innings looks like 11 men against one - Bumrah.

Clearly, I was wrong it's like Bumrah vs everyone on the field. 😂😂

Reminder that you were always better off picking Kuldeep + NKR over Shardul + Karun. Pick bowling depth over a tail that wags once in 20 innings.

Jio's scorecard is perfect for watching the match in a tiny window on your phone while you catch up on the twitter and reddit feeds about the same match. 😂

I mean have we learned NOTHING from BGT? The probability of our entire batting line up firing is 1/15 innings or so. But a capable relentless bowling line up gave us consistent results overseas for years.

Baap re. 9+ degree turn. Insane.

Amen.

JB gets his 3rd. It's a flat pitch, but we've got Boom. That's it, that's the match summary.

On a flat pitch and ideal batting conditions, two things will always be true for IND: 1. Bumrah will make it look like a minefield. 2. Our lower order will not turn up.

JB gets 4....oh no. He doesn't. That's a third no ball from the over. Literally his 6th wicket taking delivery of this innings. Oh boy.

The thing is we had a simple approach: if conditions are batting friendly, add a bowler. If conditions are bowling friendly, add a bowler.

Are they reminding everyone to do 10 squats?

Great engagement strategy to bait the 41 year olds. (Please ignore that I'm 41)
