210 not out.
Only the sixth player to make 200 on debut.
Not a bad effort. Only Bangladesh but they can't be easily dismissed any more, especially at home. They have beaten both Australia and England in the recent past.
Also a re-modelled West Indian team after alot of senior players refuse to tour because of Covid-19.
Some interesting Tests going on right now.
Pakistan v South Africa might yet be the best of them.
South Africa 1-127 chasing 370 with a day to go.
4 - 72 in the second dig, track playing tricks, over 300 in front though.
Beating the Aussies especially away from here aint exactly a struggle these days. even for the Bangers
Will be an interesting finish. 6/145 ahead by 386 is a great lead. If England can bat till either the end of the day or maybe until 10pm our time, they might get 20 mins at India tonight.

168-8, over 400 in front, can Bess & Leach bowl India out? Wicket looks like a sandpit.
Good battle on day 1 of the second test. India 3/147 with Rohit Sharma 100 not out.
Three top dismissals. Olly Stone with a late in-dipper to Gill shouldering arms, Stokes making a tough catch low to his left at slip off the spinner look ridiculously easy, and Ali bowling a corker to get Virat for a duck through the gate, Kohli standing there like WG Grace refusing to believe he'd been bowled for a quack.
Tough pitch looks like it will break up so if India can get 300+ the Poms will struggle.

For me, the way players handle DRS is fast becoming one of the most humourous (if not entertaining) aspects of the game.
Bangladesh are seven down needing another 60-odd to win. Their number nine is given out LBW - looking very adjacent.
He did not even hesitate to call for the review.
Result - still out. Bat not within a mile of the ball (didn't even need snicko or whatever it's called). Ball tracking said HITTING - not even umpire's call, review lost.
What is their thought process? He must have known he did not hit it.
Is it ego? Do they think, "I'm probably out but we're better off with me taking the punt because I'm better than the guys to come after me?".
Sheesh, if I was captain and players persisted with this attitude, I'd consider reversing the batting order and make sure they were aware of the fact that the blokes coming in after them are there because they are better.

In some odd scheduling the one dayer NSW v Vics is on today (rather than yesterday, Sunday) on Foxtel, Kayo, Cricket.com.AU)
Smith, Henriques, Abbott, Cummins, Lyon playing for NSW, Pattinson, Harris, Maddison for Vics.
NSW 2-10 after 3 overs.

Foxtel probably had other priorities yesterday, like the guinea pig racing in Gympie.
It is a pity how irrelevant state cricket has become in Australia, but I am not sure it is anyone's fault, rather just a product of the times.
I thought CA did the schedule?
Vics had NSW at 4/72 but Smith and new guy Oliver Davies have easily brought this to 4/146 after 30 overs. This is at North Sydney oval which is a postage stamp ground.
Vics now struggling. After having NSW 4/72 they ended up making 318.
Vics now 5/111. To be fair there’s a few far ”young” guys in the Victorian team. Harper, Short, Fraser-McGurk, Sutherland, Crone, Evans to go with Harris, Maddinson, Hanscomb, Pattinson and Holland.

To me, it is a logical flaw in the DRS process. The overall decision that the on-field umpire made is used as the "umpire's call" for every aspect of an LBW decision - and there are, what, three or four of them in all? Assume for the sake of argument that the umpire thought that the impact was in line, but he gave it not out because he thought Root hit it. That "not out" call is used as the umpire's call on everything. DRS shows that Root did not hit it and the impact was umpire's call. The umpire's call on the impact was in-line, so it should have been out.
I guess it's just not practical to have the on-field umpire provide three or four individual decisions and work out a final result in the time available. I'm a fan of DRS in general but this flaw tells me maybe it's time to do away with umpire's call in all its forms.

Ashwin, 5 wickets in England's 1st innings and 100 in India's 2nd innings, a reasonable effort.
He has 1 wicket in Englands 2nd innings, would have to been a good chance of getting another 5fa.
Would have to be a first, 100 and 5 wickets in both innings if he's able to do it.
England 3/53, still needing another 429.
