To think I called a Pakistan win easily and deserving as I walked past a TV in the staff canteen mid-morning.

A little later, I head over to CricInfo, and they're 8 down.

With Ali there, I found myself still favouring Pakistan to win.

What a game!

What a testament to the excitement of the 5-day game!

Fantastic result for NZ, and great advert for test cricket. To your point on five-days, this ended in four, which lends credence to CSA's push for four day tests
 
These Aussies are so dof....Lynn just took 21 off the previous over and Finch plays a number 11 shot to get out 3 balls later.

Aus 64/2 off 8.3

Lol yeah. Finch should've set himself to bat through and let the likes of Lynn and Maxwell play those shots.
 
I was gonna say they could have picked 5 spinners against the Aussies and then Maxwell klaps a Pandya over for 23.


5 good spinners :p
 
India were cruising but a couple of wickets have made it interesting.

111/4 off 12.3 (17 overs max).
