    That has to be one of the most unlikely outcomes in any sport, ever.

    listened to a ponting interview yesterday, he said there can only be 1 winner and if it ends up a draw it'd be worse than losing to india 2 years back ;-)

    Remember what Tim Paine said to Ravi Ashwin last week. ' Wait 'til we get you to the Gabba mate'. Be careful what you wish for Tim.

    The only Cricket hesgoal has are England matches but for the rest like test matches or Big Bash I watch it on buffstreams.tv which is usually reliable and has other sports too. I expected at the start of the day for it to be a draw. If you're trying to save a test there are few as good as Pujara who not for the first time in the series had a Pujara innings. The times over the years on here many of us have gone on about last day batting collapses for England, our players should watch how sensible he plays. For the test championship this summer it could end up being New Zealand vs Australia in England which would mean more people will be cheering on in the ground New Zealand to win that they get when they play tests at home in front of barely anyone.

    I have not watched cricket for years, used to love it and play when younger, now could not name a player now, a sport Sky ruined for years for people with only terrestrial telly

    Last day saving a test only go at the bad ball with more top hand. If you do lose composure flash hard. It isn't rocket science yet so few games are saved.

    I understand what you're saying about cricket on terrestrial telly but I'm not sure the bbc would even show it now if Sky didn't.
    Sky coverage is superb tbf.

    TMS is an institution and continually brilliant listening. BBC TV have hardly covered test match cricket for the last 20 years and it seems have no intention to do so.
    Don't get me wrong id like to see cricket back on 'normal telly'. But like I say, Sky do a brilliant job and deserve to keep the contract.

    eng in sri lanka now on $ky is obviously using sri lankan broadcasting and bumble and co do comm from over here
    i did put SA's supersport channel on for a bit and mark butcher was in the ground doing comms for the game
    personally i prefer tms but it can be a struggle to get it in sync with tv, in fact online legal bbc radio was usually behind illegal stream!
