#36AllOut reminded me of a phase in Test cricket when India lost 25 wickets for 224.

We saw it live.

Now, the runs per wicket (8.96) does not match yesterday's 4 (India lost 9 wickets).

But India actually scored 280/19 at Adelaide, so what we had witnessed was worse.

There was no respite. India were given a relatively easy pitch for the tour match.

Then came Durban.

South Africa were bowled out for 235 on Day 1.

India did not last 40 overs. 100 all out.

South Africa now scored 259.

This time, 66 all out.

And now, Cape Town. This time South Africa declared on 529/7. There were three hundreds.

India became 58/5 on the third morning.

That. Sinking. Feeling.

As was often the case, Tendulkar was holding the fort.

It had been a few months since he had been appointed captain.

Fingers crossed for levelling at the biggest stage of them all - Melbourne Cricket Ground. It's the real Lord's of cricket, not Lord's.
Again realizing just how mind bendingly cathartic the 2018 win was for me. I'm just mildly annoyed and amused at India's collapse. Not getting into a multi week funk like previous collapses. Able to think with equanimity, like, wow this is as classic a test as any! #INDvAUS
Is 340 AM too late for the first drink of the night or too early for the first drink of the day? Asking for a friend. #INDvAUS #36allout
