They can make up extra time for the rain delays I think, an extra half hour before and at the end of nominal playing hours. So unless there is another big storm this afternoon which sends them off for a long time I think they will have just about made up for the time lost on Saturday.

At the rate Gill is scoring, that should be a doddle.

Got im!

FUCK OFF

Try the goat :)

Gill out for 91. c: Smith b: Lyon

IND: 2/132

Get some wickets!

FUCK OFF

Play has resumed after Tea.

It’s looking grim, Jim.

I think the Indians will have a crack at this if they still have 6 or 7 wickets in the shed with say 15 overs to go.

Pujara LBW by Cummins for 56.

IND: 4/228

I thought that was too high. Only a few millimetres in it.

FUCK OFF

If it does rain, it won’t amount to much.

Washington out for 22. b: Lyon.

IND: 6/318

Why play the reverse in that situation?

Anyway, India should still do it, 10 from 25….4 wickets in hand. Just singles and sensible play will be enough. No need for reverse sweeps or any heroics.

3 from 20 with 3 wickets in hand….

Goddim! Thakur out for 2.

IND: 7/325

Fuck

ALL OVER

Well played.

India win!

Well done.

let the hugging and kissing commence….
