Thomas to Labuschagne, FOUR runs
Yay, goes Marnus after slashing the wide ball to the point boundary! He raises his bat in delight and walks around as he soaks in the applause. Was a very wide fullish ball, he reached out and drove it square.

Average is now 61.4 in 30 test matches.

Crazy game between India and Bangladesh yesterday, I would recommend the highlights. Bangladesh will be a threat at next years World Cup for sure.

Joseph to Head, FOUR runs
Mid-off's open and Head drives to get to his fifth Test hundred. His first in his home ground. He runs with a raised bat, has an air punch, and gets a bear hug from Marnus. It was full and with cover and mid-off open, Head hit through the line and timed it perfectly

Couldn't find live coverage (DSTV). But Sharma nearly got India there even with his injury.

WI vs AUS Test.
Chanderpauls 26 year old son makes his debut who himself is only 48 last playing a test in 2015.

Father and son could've played in the same team.

If memory serves they did play together in a couple of domestic games

Bazball is all fun and very entertaining. Time will tell if batting at 6 (or 5) to the over and being bowled out for under 300 will win many test matches.

They've won a lot so far and only lost 1 against us. Lets see how pakistan go. Either way it's entertaining and it obviosuly wont always work but it may help them win more games overseas.

so ENG 281 all out
