Nick Knight saying India are respectful of India because they' tried to deny them practice. Wis Sky had just paid up now tbh, no way would they've taken Knight out there.

The second one is attractive to bet against, IMO.

Have money on Sehwag and Tendulkar for best Indian bat at 4.5 and 5 for best Indian batsman.

Can't wait to see how high it bounces on day 5.

Looks a 500+ bat first pitch that Geoffrey could bat on with a stick of rhubarb.

Switched over to the dark side's feed as a Bumble/Knight combo not exactly the dream team.

Little bit of swing, but it's early swing from the hand.

Huh and Jimmeh spears a long hop down leg as I type. Eeeuuww.

Would bite your hand off to knock India over for that on this. Perfect time to bat now, and only going to get slower. Perfect toss to win.
