Nice Handscomb! Well played

 

[FRUMPY]

Very good 50. Needs to keep going on. Great effort and showed good character in both tests

Awesome innings. Huge pressure and he’s played it beautifully.

Props to captain Pat as well - very important 30 runs so far.

 

[Klink]

Superb knock so far, Pete. Nicely supported by his skipper who is showing lots of fight..

 

[MJG14]

Well done Handscomb!

 

[Zevon]

Well played Pete

I know Khawaja made more (so far) but he’s easily looked the most comfortable of the batters today.

 

[BGman]

A quality 50 from Pete Hanscomb. Most of our top six need to take spin play lessons from him.

 

[samFFC]

Bloody good knock. Keep it going.
Awesome deputising by the skipper.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Need to milk every over until the new pill that’s when it will get tough for the tail

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Great 50, well deserved. Carry on.

 

[Westend]

A quality 50 from Pete Hanscomb. All of our top six could take spin play lessons from him.

I’ll take it back. Cummins actually playing his role very well here. Rotating the strike taking the big hits when they come but not being stupid. He’s giving Handscomb the chance to score the runs.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

He has dominated County Cricket the last couple of seasons hasn’t he?

Yeah, has batted well previously

 

[boncer34]

If you'd said we'd get 250 with Marnus and Smithy only contributing 18 you'd have been laughed at.

 

[Zevon]

This will only be his 3rd Test century :O

Hey, that’s my trick!!!

 

[kidgorgeous]

281

I see what you did there

 

[Cotchin 9]

Astute selection - very good player of spin Handscomb

 

[k31th]

Best part of that is he showed the face he's actually using and not the sponsored rear of the bat! excellent

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Haven't seen Cummins bat this well since about 2017. A very important time to step up too.

Mark Waugh reckons handscombe is protecting his castle like it matters.

Thanks Mark, really insightful stuff.

 

[Bedi]

Maybe. But so many balls keeping low and doing weird s**t IDK about that

Only weird s**t will save us, as I'd be backing Pujara, Sharma, Kohli, Rahul in these conditions over Lyon, Murphy and Kuhnemann

Still the best Australian commentator there

If Cummins is on 29 i guess its still not that bad .. normally 2nd day end onwards Delhi pitches start going bad ..
So India will have to get atleast 70-100 runs by close today to have any chance of 400 runs

2nd innings will be like Pune pitch 2nd inning in 2017 scores will be 100-150 max for both teams
