And there it is! 50 years after winning at The Oval, their first victory in this country, India have done it again. A stirring come from behind triumph.

What a comeback! 🇮🇳👏🏻
The boys just kept bouncing back after every setback. What a way to stamp authority on the last day when England were 77/0. Way to go guys!
Let’s make it 3-1. 😀

Signal dropped out for the final ball at the live site! My new mate Michael revealing the news to the 100-odd fans that were off to a super over. Drama.

Leaving Pakistan completely knackered but enormously grateful for everything that was made possible for us over the last four weeks - thank you so much. Can’t wait to return and, between times, to tell anyone who will listen that they should get here as soon as they can.

Great spirit between these teams. Warner roped Shaheen in to give him a hand so they could sneak a peak at the pitch after the players filed out of the rooms together.

Pat Cummins confirms Mitch Swepson will make his debut at Karachi with Josh Hazlewood missing out. The first specialist leggie to play a Test for Australia since 2009.

HAT-TRICK FOR RASHID.
He took wickets in his last two balls in the previous game against Uganda and then took a wicket of his first ball today against New Zealand !
Well done skipper

Let’s forget about the pitch for a moment - what a great place to start our Pakistan tour. Thanks to everyone at the ground - we’ve been looked after so well; many friends made. Can’t wait to get back to Pindi for more Test cricket in the future.

. Anyone who has watched him closely and regularly knows that he does that guard scratching/shadow batting bit every day in the field. Nothing in it. I get there are a lot of angry people after the week at Sydney, but this bit is hivemind internet misinformation.
Hasan Ali enjoying himself, marching onto the field with the Pakistan flag. He’s almost certain to return to the XI after taking 41 wickets at 16 in 2021.

Few things I want to stress with this news circulating:
1. It was an awful crash but I'm home and safe and fine
2. The driver isn't going so well but he's stable after lengthy surgery
3. If I wasn't wearing a seatbelt, well, best not to think about it
Our joyous daughter, Winifred (Winnie) Mae Collins, arrived at 4:51am on Friday, weighing in at 7lbs3oz - with a full head of hair. After a couple of days in the sickbay, she is home. We love her so completely. Her mum is a warrior (30 hours labour), a natural and an inspiration.
A huge few minutes in Travis Head’s career. Absorbed over half an hour of relentless pressure then smacks a couple of boundaries and a huge six. Great fella, very happy for him.

Deano was so important. To our generation, he defined the way we loved the game - so exciting dancing down the track, so energetic racing between the wickets. Later in his career, we felt the injustice of his omissions like it was a personal affront. Always the One Day King. RIP.
Jumpers on in Rawalpindi, but Naseem Shah is fired up!
Strikes Labuschagne on the elbow and lets him know...
Khawaja 83*, Labuschagne 8*, Australia 1/167.

"It's very very smart from Jonny Bairstow"
"Brilliant work by Jonny Bairstow, a wicket out of absolutely nothing there"
"a lot of credit to Jonny Bairstow for realizing the moment"

Best to ignore anyone advancing the conspiracy theory that they’ve moved the Third Test for strategic reasons. India have lost two Tests at home in ten years, winning 43. It doesn’t matter where they host when Ashwin/Jadeja are fit and firing.
