112 all out.

I'm not much of a cricketist, but that's not good.

I haven’t caught any of the ‘highlights’ yet. I assume it’s another stinker of a pitch? Or have both teams just batted horribly? Root getting a five for suggests spinners dream of course

Most of the wickets have fallen to ones that haven't turned, but plenty of balls in between have gone miles and clearly got in everyone's heads. It's very difficult to bat on, but probably not quite as impossible as the batsmen have made it look today.

The VAR guy is a bit of a homer.

What was the Ahmedabad groundsman thinking with his first day turner?

Presumably the same as the Sheridactyl-favouring CG quagmire.  Help the home team.

This quirky pitch did abnegate the random advantage of winning the toss however.  And it didn't look so quirky to Rohit who scored 91 for once out, featuring the highest strike rate in each innings in either team.  Axar's pitch perfect bowling also stood out.

Our seam focus in this match, alongside our rotation policy don't seem to have helped.  With Root and Stokes it briefly looked like we may be able to set a target, after Roots' Fivefor,  But congratulations to India on a comfortable win.

Root was interesting afterwards, he didn't so much blame the pitch as the ball for skipping on and losing less pace off the pitch than a normal ball - it was the first time this pink ball has been used. That would explain a lot of poor timing of straight balls by good players (mostly in India shirts)
