Cricket really doesn't help itself and I do cynically wonder if RS is right when he mentions it will avoid giving refunds for tomorrow?
Anyway, I wouldn't like to call it now but the draw looks off the table!
It’s the only game in the world that doesn’t help itself…. Illogical ways always to rob the viewer of overs

Several times in the series we’ve had a strangle hold and given it up, but so have India; 5 centuries in the first test and lost, never happened before, for example.
I don’t agree,they couldn’t get that old pudding ball of the square this evening. The new ball will fly yes it gives the Indian side a better chance also, but the heavy roller will take any pace juice out of the wicket to start with.
Still one of us will be right.
