6/144 at Lunch. Kohli is 45* and Ashwin 2*.
The game is better for Pujara's dismissal (my distaste for seeing England win notwithstanding). |

| 8/179. Kohli just bowled for 72. No batsmen left. This will be over in moments, now. |

How many Tests are there? Three?
Oz apparently needs a drawn series. |

^ Google says four.
Presumably the info is somewhere on cricinfo, but I couldn't find it. It's amazing how hard it is to navigate many websites.
For draw-wishers, an England win first up is probably a good thing. |

What a stunner of a performance from the Poms' skipper, in his 100th. Test.
Won the toss.
Batted.
Scored a personal double ton.
Took a screamer, one handed (see K's post) to dismiss Rahane, in the first innings.
Hit a classy 40 from 32 balls (28 in boundaries), as England added to the first innings lead of 241.
Caught the dangerous Rishabh Pant, in the second innings.
Well played, Joe Root.

Billy Root on his older brother:
'One time, when we were teenagers, we were playing against Doncaster. Joe opened and I was batting at number four.
He was on about 49 when I got to the crease and, six overs later, I was on 32 and he'd just gone past 50. I said: "I'll race you to a hundred." When I was on 98, he had 60, only for me to get out. By the end, he was 140 not out. He came off and said: "The tortoise always beats the hare."'
