    19th Match - India v Australia (27th March)

    Nah, I'll be DVRing the game and watching Lex lose his hair instead. Ind v Aus is the new Ind v SL anyway.

    19th Match - India v Australia (27th March)

    Pro-tip #2: It pays to check the schedule before booking Batman vs Superman tickets, to avoid ending up as the idiot who manages a perfect overlap between the two. I may or may not be speaking from personal experience.

    19th Match - India v Australia (27th March)

    Pro-tip for today's game: The India-West Indies women's match will precede the India-Australia men's game, and both will be played on the same strip. Punters wanting to make sense of the pitch for the big game may follow the women's match and then factor in ~40 overs of wear and tear.

    13th Match - India v Bangladesh (23rd March)

    I wasn't aware that a Mankad doesn't count as a legal delivery. I'm guessing if the non-striker was (a) aware of this, and (b) took advantage of it, then the run out at the non-striker's end would have been in play. Did anyone notice if a fielder had run up to the non-striker's end to collect a...

    Who is the worst pace bowler to take over 300 test wickets?

    If Ishant Sharma keeps up his current rate of picking up wickets, this debate will have ceased to exist in 4.5 years.

    14th Match - Australia v Pakistan (25th March)

    Pakistan are out if they lose. Australia could lose and still have a chance against India.

    13th Match - India v Bangladesh (23rd March)

    Hendrix mentioned that Kohli may have proclaimed the intent to Mankad. Really the only explanation of why the non-striker chose to play it safe. 100% chance of being Mankaded vs whatever chance of running the 22 yards is good reason to eschew the illegal play. India might have copped...

    13th Match - India v Bangladesh (23rd March)

    There's a theory that I have a lot of time for. The Bong players, for whatever reason, seem to have oversized egos and do not take kindly to perceived slights. They're huge on gestures of 'getting even'. They may have sought to repay India for having finished off their last high profile...

    DoG's Test Innings and Bowling Performances. Updates thread.

    DoG, a suggestion - why not highlight the changes since the last edition of the list so we know what's new?

    13th Match - India v Bangladesh (23rd March)

    Fielders don't roll around for dramatic appearance; they roll around to dissipate the momentum of the fall so the ball doesn't pop out of the hands.

    13th Match - India v Bangladesh (23rd March)

    Great anticipation by Dhoni taking the glove off prior to last ball.

    13th Match - India v Bangladesh (23rd March)

    This is a heist. I'm still having a hard time believing that happened.

    13th Match - India v Bangladesh (23rd March)

    I'd back India to defend this score against Pakistan, but not against Bangladesh, TBH.
