Thanks Geoff. Sterling work as always. That was certainly an absorbing hour of play post lunch. There’s plenty in this pitch and plenty in it for everyone. A result deck if ever I spied one. Lyon is starting to turn the ball square and was utterly deserving of his removal of Vihari, a strike that stopped in its tracks a budding stand for India’s fourth wicket. This morning Cummins was, well, breathtaking. Please keep me company from here ‘til stumps. Head north for email and Tweet details, south for comments.

51st over: India 135-4 (Rahane 33, Pant 7) Another testing over from Lyon: keep your attention on him for the rest of the day. He’ll be closer to 400 wickets by its end, I’ll wager.

Drinks on the field, and it’s time for me to hand over to Scott Heinrich. Cheerio.
