Odds-on a day-nighter in Melbourne. Big crowds.

How's that disgraceful pitch in India, ball running along the ground. I don't care how rich they are, if you keep producing hometown tracks like that you are a pissant nation. Like England.
Another pretty average pitch delivered in India. The kiwis didn't cover themselves in glory but surely they should be able to produce something that's OK for batting in the first couple of days?

Unlike Australia and every other country, the BCCI doesn't need the income generated by tickets sales and TV watchers to ensure a Test lasts five days. They just want to win.

The record for the most wickets in a Test by a bowler who was his team's only wicket taker is 8 by Craig McDermott at Old Trafford in 1985. There was one run out.

They probably employ sHocking Singh to run the game
His English cousin devised The Hundred, because T20 wasn't innovative enough. Their American cousin is the 7 Minute Abs dude from There's Something About Mary.

Has Kohli been sanctioned for dissent after his 1st innings dismissal? Not a good look to not accept the umpires decision without question. And it was the 3rd umpire so no excuse to complain to the onfield ump. Terrible behaviour from a captain.
