England in the 90s

Objective 1 was of course achieved by bowling India out for less than 200, and thereby avoiding the follow on by default.

Objective 2 was to still be batting at tea, which I achieved by reaching 43/1.

Stewart the only man out, smartly caught behind of an inside edge, trying to force Prabhakar through extra cover. Prabhakar was tighter than a scotsman's codpiece.

Objective 3 is - try not to mess this up in the evening session.

You're bowling again already?! And bowling Robin Smith?

Yeah. Had Hick given out lbw to some unplayable full toss that hit him outside leg and was missing... savage collapse after that including Gatt another full toss smashed 3 quarters up off stump. Seems a bit off to have the AI bowl deliveries we can’t, and to make them unplayable. I was 85 all out.

Their 2nd dig they’re 103/5, except Sidhu has scored 81* of that! Oh, and I had him given not out to a huge edge caught behind when he was on about 12.

FML[DOUBLEPOST=1609887011][/DOUBLEPOST]Sidhu absolutely toying with me.
 
They’re 191 all out. 150 of those came Sidhu (98) and Kapil Dev (52*).

That leaves me 205 to make.

My aggregate score over 3 inns in the series so far is 254, so I’m not exactly bursting with confidence.
