People forget it’s an entertainment business as well as a results one, whatever the outcome this has to be good for the sport.

Not just spectators, bet the players would much rather play games like this than tepid draws in the heat.

I saw something about Livingstone not being fit enough to bowl - was that something that he acquired during the match?
And did someone just go after Jacks? He's barely bowled this innings.

What happened to him during the match?
