A thousand words of pleasure

Happiness comes from watching moments such as this:

Much, much more to come in a day or two after I am done basking in the after-glow of a very, very satisfying Saturday.

I know for sure your next topic will be on this and you will make a special one too.

Definitely a delightful finish to the game. I could not have scripted it better.

So VVS' test average is up above 47 now - hopefully he continues this trajectory and nudges it over 50 by the time he is done!

BRB/AV, how could it be any other way?

BD/CSD, if he plays long enough he should be able to nudge it past the 50 mark. But it will be tough. In the past two years he has scored nearly 1000 runs while averaging 84.5 and yet his total average has only climbed from 44.35 to 47.22. So if he were to duplicate the purplest long-term patch of his career he would just about cross 50. (Click here for VVS's cumulative averages after each Test of his career).
