Anderson to Rahul, dropped, is it? Or did it carry at all? Sibley diving to his left from second slip. Rahul presses forward, Edges it, but it's falling low and Sibley
Got both hands to it but couldn't hold on ~

"Jimmy equalled Jumbo's record right? why no one is talking about that?"

-- It was mentioned when it happened, but yes, they're both on 619 now.

Anderson could have had his 620th had Sibley caught Rahul at second slip.

40.3
Anderson to Kohli, OUT and he gets Kohli first ball! Wow!
On the fuller side of a length, in the corridor, and Kohli stretches out to defend,
he may have wanted to leave that possibly, but it wasn't that wide either.
Edges it, and this time it carries at a comfortable height for Buttler

Virat Kohli c †Buttler b Anderson DUCK (2m 1b)

The umpires have had a look and decided we're all doomed. Let's try again tomorrow.

Kohli averages like 12 vs Anderson in the UK.

Anderson's due for retirement soon; I hope he goes out on a bang.

197- 5

Day 3 Session 2

66.4
Anderson to Rahul, dropped! Joe Root at first slip! Shortish,
a bit of width, a bit of away swing and Rahul goes for the cut and gets
a thick edge that carries just over head height to Root. He gets both hands to it
and it pops out. Rahul survives his second dropped chance

207- 7

68.5
