I loved the Atherton comment below (from TRO 13806)
After bowling a fiery spell early in the tour, Chris Lewis said of the young Indian batsman Vinod Kambli: “I reckon I can get this guy out any time I want to.” As Kambli moved towards a double-century in the third Test, Mike Atherton suggested that now might be an opportune time.

Ah, Essex CCC. Gotta love them. I've just had the traditional letter asking me to renew my life membership...

A reminder every year to renew...
I didn't take out life membership until a couple of years ago, having been a member since I was in my early teens. Could have saved a fortune if I'd done earlier.
There are other benefits- but for me it simply made financial sense since the cash was available up front in the way it wouldn't have been twenty or more years ago.

It's a draw. Let's stop it now and move on.

Watched the morning session highlights as I ate my breakfast, Pujara has an interesting technique against the short ball. Uses his face instead of his bat.

Not a draw yet. We won't know until the 5th day that the pitch will hold up and our batsmen hold up too....

My phone seems to have broken. I'm not getting any wicket alerts.

Exactly wriggler.
Indians declare on 680 odd, and we get 2 - 2.5 sessions to survive on a day 5 pitch trailing by 150-160.
Tell me you won't be cr&pping yourself in that scenario.....
