Bloody long tail with Cummins at number 8. He’s a number 9 at a long stretch.

cummins used to be able to contribute with the bat

Typical Bhogle. Why do keep inviting this guy here? He's so unlikeable and has his head firmly up the BCCI's arse.

Bhogle got told a couple of years back by the bccI to stop critiquing the team or wouldn’t get any work. Since then he has been a cheerleader it’s a massive shame.

Reckon that was hitting leg. Nervous review incoming.

Each country builds pitches for their own squad. That's how it's always been.

Piss off. Most make a pitch to the condition of the venue. That obviously favors the home side but India do it to make sure the other side can't win. I have never seen a pitch prepared like that ever, and we know why. That is cheating.

* off. That had to be umps call for where it made impact. Could see most of leg stump when it struck him, which means it becomes umps call (not out). P,is it was moving left as it travelled after bouncing,

 

[Belnakor]

Tbh usman shouldn’t be missing something like that. Half volley on leg stump.
