Kohli has a fantastic record in the 4th innings.

Aged like milk

You're welcome! Worked in the second test as well.

Pant has the right idea. 5 overs of this and chase is over.

[MN5]

Is Will O’Rourke a specialist number 11 batsman now ?

[Chris B.]

28/4!

But, not Pant!

@Chris-B he's not going to stay for long. But he'll score quickly

He scares the shit out of me!

Completely fearless (seemingly)!

[MN5]

Blow me down, how often does Phillips come on and get a crucial early wicket ?

He’s fluking a better record than that noted fluke artist Colin De Grandhomme !

[Chris B.]

I think we got Jaiswal caught as well - even if the lbw didn't stand?

Agreed. Looked out either way

[Chris B.]

[nzzp]

Believe!!!!!

Nope. Give me more

Don't you dare start believing now!!!!

[Squirrel]

Its all happening!

Will Young has been amazing in close all series. Shame he could no hold on to that one, but it was a very tough chance

[Chris B.]

I can tell who is winning by looking at my face in the mirror, compared with those in the crowd!

But, we still need to get Pant.

Young nearly caught Jadeja!

Hope is the killer. They bat right down to, and including Washington. Until he's gone I don't believe

[canefan]

Fair to say the remaining Indian batsmen will be bricking it now

catching critical. We put down the chances in their first innings - so far not so much

[canefan]

Ajaz has come alive in Mumbai, after a pretty quiet series

[canefan]

Shame we didn't have a bigger total to defend. This is just a big tease from the BCs. A couple of big overs from Pant and India are close to home

[Chris B.]

I'd really be inclined to give O'Rourke an over at Pant if he's on strike and just dig a few in short a la Wags - just see what happens.

I think he's pretty comfortable attacking the spinners.
