Pitch looks pristine.

Camera angles are good.

If Championship cricket was shown live like this on a permanent basis I'd happily pay a decent sub for it. It's a way of supporting it for folk who can't get to the days.

I'd wonder what the take up in India would be for an offer like this. Pujara is clearly a pull and you'd think there's a few quid in it.

This isn’t looking good.
I’m starting to wonder if crocombe will ever be up to it. good players control him with such ease.
Similar concerns with Atkins too, although he is obviously quicker so there is more hope.

Strong chance of Pujara and Rizwan batting together during this game / next few games. Can't be often in recent times an Indian and Pakistani player have shared a partnership for the same time.

Another streaky four.

Looks a pretty flat pitch. Madsen is one of those players who always seems to score runs against us - it didn't help us dropping him though.

I do think our batting will be all right this season but without Robbo and Archer, I can't see us bowling anyone out - unless we produce an absolute greentop (and then we'll be skittled out for 68)

Any guessing on how long that partnership is likely to last and the runs scored, given that this is Sussex?
