He\u2019s getting the ball through nicely to the gloves of Pant, Cummins fending at one that just misses his outside edge. There are two back on the hook, which McGrath says \u201cis ridiculous\u201d as Cummins ducks under a bouncer &#8211; he\u2019s not hooking any time soon. 2.02am GMT 86th over: Australia 261-8 (Cummins 63, Lyon 7) Cummins away first ball, tucking Ishant fine, Lyon then doing likewise. Between times, the ground staff came out to bang away at the run up and lay a bit of sawdust. There\u2019s a half-hearted should from Pant got a catch down the legside, but there\u2019s nothing in that, says Umpire Gunner Gould. Cummins keeps the strike with a push to the sweeper (a sweeper?! Now?) at point. Speaking of Gunner, he knows a bit about being at the MCG on unexpected fifth days. And per @derekpringle\u2019s magnificent book, earlier in the Test, Gunner had a meat pie dumped on his head on the boundary at Bay 13. Doubly unusual for a bloke who was a wicketkeeper. pic.twitter.com\/GQxPCa44DT Continue reading&#8230;<br \/>\nVia: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/live\/2018\/dec\/30\/australia-v-india-boxing-day-test-day-live\" target=\"_blank\">Australia v India: Boxing Day Test, day five &#8211; live!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Live updates from day five of the third Test at the MCGJoin the conversation: via email or tweet @collinsadam 2.05am GMT 87th over: Australia 261-8 (Cummins 63, Lyon 7) Bumrah to Cummins from the members end. \u201cIt\u2019s basically a new ball,\u201d notes Glenn McGrath on Macquarie radio, so he\u2019s the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-73567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-english"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=73567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73567\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=73567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=73567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theworldwidejournal.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=73567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
