    Rohit falls short of his hundred, but India can’t possibly lose from here.

    50 for Babar. Some form at last. Perfect timing.

    Edit: 50 and no more, apparently.

      I was about to say that’s harsh, but two more quick wickets are making them look a little farcical.

          They’ve been looking dangerous of late, but on the big stage it all goes pear shaped.
