Would be kind of nice to see the Indians beaten on their own turf. A small consolation for that débâcle the other day in Multan, but still, I'll take it. Would change everything if it were the Australians doing it. But it isn't.
See they made 462 in their second innings.

Must be the first time a team has scored 10 times what they did in the first innings.

They’ll still surely lose. NZ only need about 100.
 
Think Pakistan now know that to start winning at home they need pitches that spin from day one instead of dead pitches! It's the right choice for them! Think Pakistan play spin a lot better than England to!

Will we get 250? Not sure
 
This pitch is ridiculous spins like fuck and stays low every now and then! That's what got Duckett!

200 would be a decent score in the first innings here. Can’t see anyone scoring 250 in an innings in this game
 
From BBC:
PitchViz rating so far (the higher the number, the harder it is to bat):
  • First 10 overs: 4.0
  • Overs 11-20: 7.0
  • Overs 21-30: 8.1
In terms of bounce inconsistency (the higher the number, the more uneven the bounce):
  • First 10 overs: 1.5
  • Overs 11-20: 4.1
  • Overs 21-30: 7.4
**
Is it the pitch or the ball that's changing? Bounce suggests the pitch, but some must surely be that the ball isn't shiny any more.

The last few years seem to have provided inconsistent ball batches that change dramatically.
