Long before he became respected journalist (and now disrespected former journalist, apparently), back when Aditya was just starting off as a sportswriter, he had a client who liked to say: expect the unexpected. It’s a lesson that should have stuck, so that you can avoid egg on your face from doing stupid things like predicting a 4-0 whitewash of England only for India to lose a home Test against England by a whopping 227 runs.
So now, after James Anderson managed to find the one cloud in Chennai and the one spot on the pitch covered by said cloud, and Jack Leach discovered his favorite pair of Specsavers between innings so he could see where on the pitch to bowl on Day 5, India are suddenly sweating about reaching the World Test Championship final. Which looked a foregone conclusion after they won in Australia.
This disastrous Test loss was enough to get us back together for an express episode, just so Siddhant could let us know which Indian player is quickly reaching Dinesh Karthik status in his mind, and we could make more predictions.
Were we any smarter this time around? You can see for yourself…
