RT @ZaltzCricket: Rishabh Pant has never been out in the 60s, 70s, or 80s. He's now been out 7 times in the 90s, out of 13 90+ scores.

I also like that India and New Zealand have recent history for this sort of thing. In 1999, at Mohali, India were 83ao and then 505/3: Then in 2014, at Wellington, New Zealand were 192ao and 680/8: #INDvNZ #INDvsNZ.

India will want to score 598, not only to replicate South Africa's 13x improvement in Test innings totals, but also to achieve the biggest runs difference between innings: @stevieessence @ZaltzCricket @norcrosscricket.

Following #INDvNZ and wondering if a Test team had ever scored >10x its first innings total in its second innings. Looks like it only happened once, in 1924 at Edgbaston, when South Africa were bowled out for 30 in the first innings and 390 in the second:
