Looks like Stokes and McCullum might get that 500 chase after all. Now wouldn't that be something?
Reminds of the Astle innings that almost got NZ home.
Gutted to hear the Ashwin news. Hope everything is okay.
I don't think a player replacement can be done in the middle of a match even if both teams agree to it. Seems like a precedent will be set if it happens. Gotta buckle up and make do with 10 now.
India have a better start today. Any kind...
Yes, they do. It was added as part of a suggestion made here. However, they only earn 1/2 points if they are not in the playing XI.
Economy under 2

Economy between 2 & 3

Economy between 6 & 7...
Good knock by Jurel, looks a promising lad.
Siraj and Bumrah being able to survive 36+ deliveries makes me think the pitch is still very good to bat on. India, however, will be a little disappointed to not reach close to 500 after winning the toss.
An extra bonus wicket late in the day, might have missed a debut century given the nature of the pitch. In any case, brilliant knocks by Rohit and Jadeja.
On the other hand, if India don't score in excess of 450, I bet England will fancy their chances. 5 wickets and 100 runs seems doable but...
I like that the RR has been healthy even after being 35-3. We are used to batsmen slowing down after a start like that. Have a feeling that the 2nd session will bring in a lot of wickets as well.
