A Kohli tantrum is a thing of beauty. We should have one every test.

As for that effort from the Crappers - my teacher put it well; "Can do better"

Thank God Somerville can bat

Day 2 kicking off soon, with 98 overs scheduled...as if they'll bowl anywhere near that LOL

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:08 am**

Patel gets Saha in his first over and has a five for. All five to fall,.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:09 am**

Patel gets Saha in his first over of the day, and also bags his five-for.

@Kiwias - snap!

And he bowls Ashwin first ball!

Ashwin wanted to review that

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:11 am**

Then bowls Ashwin with this first ball, an absolute peach of a delivery.

How on earth do you review being clean bowled?

EDIT: he thought the appeal was for caught behind and only realised he had been bowled after calling for the review.

What a great start to the day!

From cricinfo:

This is the first time a spinner has taken all the first six wickets to fall in an India innings in Tests.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:39 am**

The runs have dried up.

Should we take the new ball?

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:47 am**

Interesting morning - I think India have enough already though

Yeah, Patel and Southee aside, our attack's been lacking. And Somerville's not that sprightly in the field.

Can't help wondering if Wagner would've made a difference.

I've had Kathmandu Flu and Delhi Belly, but never been to Mumbai.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 6:06 am**

Had Delhi Belly and Bombay Bombs.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 6:50 am**

Patel now has 7, getting Agarwal in his first over after lunch for 150

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:17 am**

Patel has bowled 276 deliveries, of which 222 have been dot balls.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:21 am**

And he now has 8 wickets on a review for lbw that was not given initially.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:22 am**

Stunning .

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:22 am**

Kohli will probably declare so Patel does not get a chance at 10.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:24 am**

Come on you bloody little beauty

Good thing Somerville is bowling at the other end

Can you confirm what you just said? All 8 wickets were not given initially, but for a review?

Let’s not underestimate Somerville’s contribution to Patel’s performance here.

cmon Ajaz

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:31 am**

There it is 10!

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:32 am**

You fucking little beauty.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:33 am**

Yes 10! Legend

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:33 am**

FANTASTIC!!!!!

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:34 am**

Wow!

What a fantastic achievement!

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:34 am**

Too many runs - do we care though?

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:36 am**

Patel 10 - 119
Rest 0 - 206

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 8:02 am**

At least no Indian spinner will take 10 wickets in our innings

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 8:08 am**

that always looked too high.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 8:15 am**

Oh dearie dearie me

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 8:17 am**

this looks a better shout. all about where its pitching

pitched outside leg, phew! hat trick averted

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 8:19 am**

The Indian quicks are certainly rubbing in how poor NZs were. Jameson was all over the place while Southee's low economy rate was because he hardly ever made the batsmen play. Excellent though he was, Patel was a bit lucky nobody else bowled well enough to get, or deserve, a wicket.

Posted: **Sat Dec 04, 2021 8:26 am**

Just fried some bacon and eggs and checked again.

For 3 already !!!
