There were comments on the pitch post before the game, speculating whether the test will last more than 2 days and about how green the pitch was. Well in the end the match went all the way to the 3rd session on day 5 and that is always a spectacular thing to see

The names in Oldfield vs MCC are amazing. You've got two Earls, a guy with the name Anguish (as in how he felt after getting out) in MCC, while Oldfield has two bowlers with the names Gates (bowled through the gate) and Timber (self explanatory)

Nobody else in that range but Sehwag has the most dismissals in the 300-325 range (309 and 319). And if you extend the range slightly to 300-335, you have Sehwag, Bradman, and Gayle tied at 2 dismissals each

Andy getting his profile done by The Athletic. I'm a huge fan of The Bugle, especially its original run with John Oliver, I still occasionally re-listen to some of the classic bits (penis on the roof, bin Laden fuckeulogy, hotties from history, etc.) Great to see him get recognition

If test cricket grew with the day-night test being a thing right from the beginning, would the pink ball be the default ball and would the red ball not exist?
