So Bhajji just sits in the commentary box saying nothing, until someone asks him a question  

Probably sanga shouldn't ask him anything.

Tomorrow forecast will be toughest for batting. Make most of today.

I am now convinced his whole focus is on framing a correct sentence

lol I swear if no one asks him anything he wouldn't say a word haha. This happens every single time.

Exit of Nikita bros have helped INdia get their balance right.

He has no choice but to bowl through pain.

Pleasant surprise to see Pujara showing intent.  Or is it the huge lead taking the pressure off him.

[zen]

So we should be around 350 runs w/ lead at the end of today

Give the license to Pant. I want Indian batsmen inflicting some psychological scar as well if we could.

It’s not easy batting, the quicks still getting movement 

 

Dhawan and Rahul did really well to get quick runs

It's because he's bradmanesque in SC. 

In asia he can bat in most difficult conditions unlike others.

[vvvslaxman]

 haha Sangakkara in detail explained about how Ashwin should hold one end offensively/defensively and let seamers control from other end.  Bhajji after listening  "sanga i think ashwin should bowl from one end others should bowl from other end"
