I've just checked his stats, he's still averaging 20. I don't recall his last innings of more than 20. He may have had the longest chance in memory without taking a break to sort some stuff out.

Simmering away nicely now this lol, circumspect hour and 3 down isn’t the disaster it was. Both batters well set. 300 from here would be nice.
This isn’t a 300 run wicket.

All he has to do is put away the pull of anything over hip height and it will resolve a lot of issues.

Ya I'd say a 250 wicket. No team has got over 200 against SL yet.

Yes, I'm from Tajikistan, but living in India for the last nine years.
Is there any presence of cricket in Tajikistan?
Very little. I remember we played against Afghanistan back in 2013 or something. We had a few schools and clubs that played cricket. But I don't know if there has been much progress in cricket there over the years.

I could get 300 on this with my right hand in a cast and batting with my eyes shut :lol:

Ervine's only weakness is fishing at stuff he should be leaving outside off, usually off the back foot. He probably had to play at that. It was a great ball.

That's more like it!

These two need to bat till the 40th over mark at least.

How many reviews have they got left?
I'd become obstinate as an umpire listening to these dudes screaming like they've had a mamba thrown into the change room.
