Dunno. For the series as a whole could easily go the same way as the last 2 times India were over: glorious first couple of test matches and then India get bored and we coast home in the final 3. The first test in 2011 was an absolute delight. Do love it when India are over tbf. Definitely my 2nd favourite series behind the Aussies.
England to put on another 10. India all out for <200
Bopara absolutely slamdunked Vaughan on the Cricket Debate Show on Sky.
“What do you reckon Joe, Curry’s doing a pretty decent job at the moment - 4 wickets for 16!” “Yeah… let’s give Stokesy another go. Reckon those 6s were a bit lucky last time”
some situations call for strong captaincy
anything more boring than old english sorts moaning about Kohli celebrating a run-out?
9/1 on India to win and Kohli to score a century in the first innings is tempting.
(Just given up betting, like…)
Kind of agreed… but Kohli is a chippy prick. Can’t stand a fielder who feels the need for a verbal send off.
Shikhar Dhawan is a really satisfying name to hear/say
Broad’s going for over 5 an over is he. Hmm.
taps nose
Looks weird when you see it typed out like this:
And Sam Curran, who was only four when Jimmy Anderson started playing for England, has changed the complexion of the game in no time.
Well blimey.
Also, very much enjoying cricinfo’s use of bold for outswinger when nothing 's really happened other than the ball was… an outswinger
just put some laundry on and got my lunch, miss anything?
Pffffff shows what you know
I thought for a moment when they didn’t review that Stokes LBW, my luck might be in.
as an aside, this is classic viewing at the moment.
OOFT! great castle!
crikey!
Kohli’s definitely getting a ton here
Oh ffs lads
Nah gonna run out of partners ain’t he.
