∙ Yesterday’s Victory: Just another brick in The Wall.
Today’s Defeat: Just another hole in The Wall.

∙ Yesterday’s Statement: Indian cricket is dead.
Today’s Question: Is there life after death?

∙ The demand for two-tier Test cricket has been around for ages and it’s finally time to implement it in the interest of saving Tests.
Zimbabwe, Bangladesh and India will be in one Tier and all the rest in the other.

∙ Since Sachin wasn’t scoring a century, the Indian team decided to do it for him. They did pretty well actually and the other 10 players together scored 141 runs.

∙ Indian Test Cricket has just become a fictional character like Santa Claus, Superman and the Mahashatak.

∙ The biggest positive of the first day of the Test match at Perth was that play finally ended.

Paint Sponsors
In a bid to increase its ad revenues, the BCCI is planning to get whitewash paint companies to sponsor the Indian Test team from now on.

The Lone Resistance Award…
…for the entire Australian tour goes to Virat Kohli’s Middle Finger.

ITPL anyone?
It’s time to rename it ITPL (International Test Premier League), get in coloured clothes, cheerleaders and the white ball.
That’s our only hope of regaining the No. 1 ranking in Tests now.

Mahashatak misses…
The ABCD of Sachin Tendulkar’s 100th 100 misses: Ahmedabad, Birmingham, Chennai and Delhi.
Now let’s hope LMNOP doesn’t happen…
Lord’s, Melbourne, Nottingham, Oval and Perth.
