our worst test team in 30 years. #hellodarknessmyoldfriend
That Sibley dismissal is absolutely dreadful. No point eating up the deliveries and taking the shine off the ball if you do something like that

Cricinfo better run a deep dive into DiS jinxing of the England team
This Kohli last second review™ is so infuriating as it is, can’t imagine how irritating it would be if he was actually any good at reviews.

Someone doesn’t remember the 90s
Premature celebration from Siraj the undoubted highlight of day 2.
Yeah I do. List a worse starting XI? Plus 90s England were up against a more competitive era with the windies, Aus, Pakistan, SA better than today This team are toilet.
I don’t know, how about:
and what about this with the best 9, 10, 11 ever:
I’d agree if you’d said the worst batting line-up for 30 years but the bowling is more than decent
Fuuuuck me how did I do that
You know what you did and you know how you did it. Gtfo
This is the point where a country with a batting line up that wasn’t tissue paper would be thinking about when the lead would be wiped out.
For this England I’m still wary about assuming we’ll get within 100.
mo looked absolutely shit against a tight line for a couple of overs there and then they bowl him a few pies that go to the boundary and he looks like a batsman again.
joe root is quite good
Love how quiet this thread goes when England are doing ok.
Hard to remember a batting side that relied so much on one person. Really is Root or bust, good job he’s in top nick.
Honestly can’t believe India ever leave out Ashwin, my India side would read, Kohli, Ashwin, 9 TBC, regardless of conditions.
Arguably Aus with Steve Smith for a while there.
Don’t think any of us expected a lead.
It isn’t going to be much though so short of some sort of disaster it looks like Draw… India win… England win.
Rooooooooot
