    India have not lost any of their last 7 home tests when they lose the toss. No one has won in India since 2012 when they win the toss.

    Selectors vindicated by that one spell alone.

    Impressive batting from Kohli and Rahane. Just as impressive was Guptil surviving those 9 overs

    Martin Guptill take a bow, just goes to show if you give a guy a million chances he'll come right ( could use that logic if, god forbid, any of us were called into the national team but still.....)

    ( in the tune of 'Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby" by the Kaiser Chiefs ) "Guppy, Guppy, Guppy GUPPY !!!!!"

    Get on the Guppy bandwagon while it lasts, the guy is a bonafide champ !

    A black caps century opening stand is still a rare moment to cherish......

    Sporting clichés......

    "experiencing indian conditions and umpires...."
    "time in the middle for less experienced guys....."
    "We lost the series 2-0 but fought hard in the last and the young guys will learn a lot from this....."

    feel free to add any others you see fit.

    Poor Guppy

    46.6
    Ashwin to Ronchi, OUT, has Guptill been run out at the non-strikers' end? He has! What an awful way to go. He was backing up, and having seen his partner drill a superb straight drive, he probably had the right to. But Ashwin reaches to his right, gets just enough of a deflection - only the tip of his ring finger met the ball - that made sure the ball didn't go to the boundary and instead hit the stumps
    MJ Guptill run out 72 (144b 10x4 2x6) SR: 50.00

    Insert gratuitous frustrated comment about the Foodbill now needing to save us from one of the playing Foodbill's on this tour.

    Sigh...

    Guppy just 100% cannot buy a trick. I actually felt really bad for him today, he looked set for a ton.

    Rosco's massive dip in form post Zimbabwe continues, what's going on there?

    Numbers 3-5 gave us 8 runs. Chasing 557... eek.

    274/7, our highest innings score this tour...but India got 557/5d.

    Neesh going well, into the 70s now batting with the tail.
