    Much like us in India - they haven't lost at home since 2012!

    Meanwhile if it's not Broad getting batsmen out it's Jimmy.

    There's home advantage and then there's home advantage - India seems to have it down to fine art.
    Perhaps Test nations should take a leaf out of the Qatari's book - indoor, air conditioned stadiums, protected from the ravages of local weather. A level playing field...

    Harry Brook must be breaking all kinds of records - outstanding stuff.

    And good to see Root get back on form.

    Now we know how the Aussies felt all those years ago !

    Credit to the Black caps.

    Shame we just didn’t get over the line- those little errors early in the innings cost us .

    Close finish - England could have won had they not bowled so many extras.

    A decent first day for Australia so far in the third test against India. India all out for 109 after lunch thanks to some fine bowling from Matthew Kuhnemann - 5 for 16 from 9 overs.
    At tea, Australia 1 for 71 in reply.

    A very comfortable win.


    Lots of useful contributions with bat and ball.

    I didn't realize it was on until you pointed me towards it. My neighbours are more into cycling I am glad to say.
