Shanaka there with a first class average of 40.

In tests, apart from 1 score of 66 he has scored 54 runs across 10 other innings.

Highest successful run chase by a visiting side in Galle is 91.

Highest successful run chase by a visiting side in Galle is 91.

Last time a visiting team batted in the fourth innings at Galle (South Africa in 2018), they were bowled out for 73.

Inspector Norse

Mickey Arthur disagreeing with the actual rules of cricket again there.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

Buttler's first ever test stumping?! Fucking hell.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

Leach doing the business in the end.. Kinda.

... Probably better Sibley goes this would just take forever otherwise.

This might be our most impressive defeat ever.

Lawrence looking very cool here lads - we'll easily win this now.

Chedney Honks

Absolutely loving this. Sat in a car with park getting a Covid test and could barely concentrate for laughing at these cunts going Sidney Cooke in a soft play area

Harry Badger

Fuck this fucking light rule. Batsmen should be allowed to overrule it.

Yeah that's annoying, I'm not staying up late for this, and if I did there'd probably be rain delays.

Surreal looking at this Indian side..

Rohit-Gill-Pujara, Rahane, Agarwal, Pant, Sundar, Thakur, Saini, Siraj,Natarjan

England will probably meet a totally different line up when they tour.

None of the bowlers will play another test for years despite showing serious bottle.

Not sure they trust Pant keeping in India but then Saha is a waste of a spot. Its a very cavalier opening partnership, but Rphit is ok in his backyard.

Decisions!

Shoulders?-Stomach!

Outside chance of victory at the Gabba, which would be the first Aussie defeat there since their depleted 80s side.

They have responded really well to adversity (and the loss of Kohli which may be telling), I guess Australia will have done very little planning on some of these guys.

Not sure how much we will see of some of these dudes when England travel, Sriaj possibly.

Sundar has something but not exactly Murali with the ball although everyone is hopeless playing spin these days. Thakur is good fun but once Umesh , Sharma and Shami come back that will be that.

The pitch was doing all sorts Yesterday sadly, be a monster effort to chase this down sadly. Shame because for the first few days it was quite placid as so many dismissals were avoidable.

Inspector Norse

Australia desperately trying to save a draw in the series at home against India B

Garry the Goat going for 15 in an over

Love it

Possibly the greatest test series of our lifetimes.

India B pretty much.

And Wade and Paine will never play a test again.

Some of these Indians might be an issue with ENGLAND tour though.

iamcoop

One of the great Test wins, that.

We're gonna get absolutely shunted in a few weeks

Inspector Norse

India's best away series in Christ knows how long and they still got absolutely smashed in the one test Kohli showed up for

Shoulders?-Stomach!

Such a hilarious series with embarrassment for both sides. Got to see Kohli FUCKED and Paine TURBO FUCKED along with several of his shittier crew.

Lots of unlikely heroes. With so much odi experience of chases it's always a good idea to give India a decent chance of chasing 300ish in a day.

Australia are gonna rip England a new arsehole after this.
