Shamar Joseph 7 for 68? WOW - what a revelation

 

[Guvner]

Really enjoyed watching the joy on the faces of the young Windies players at the end.
Amazing finish and a great outcome for Test Cricket in general.

Juggernauts don't lose.

Stay humble because you'll never know when it's your turn to be humiliated!

Agree. Australia used to be like that, then bowlers seemingly got grumpy, for taking a wicket.

First time Australia and India have lost a test match on the same day. Test cricket no longer on life support!

Makes you wonder about that declaration at the end of day two.

How many runs might have been scored by the last pair.

Maybe we wouldn't have got that first wicket as quickly either,if not under lights
Who knows....

I know there's been discussion about that but it was just one wicket to go, blisteringly hot and obviously needed the bowlers to be somewhat fresh. A new ball, under lights and it was worth the risk. They were clearly slogging to get some kind of go at them that night.

Well I was doing some work yesterday to make up for 3 days at the QCC. The ESPN CricInfo app was getting refreshed every over. Aaarrrgh, time to watch the last 20 runs on the TV. Disappointed for Australian getting so close, but thrilled for the Windies.

Add to that, the surprise Poms win over India by 26. Stokes freakish run out of Jadeja the tipping point.
