England In India - October 2011/12

[SaiSrini]

Big over there for India off Swann. The deficit now for India is 38 runs with 6 wkts in hand. I feel Strauss is playing Yuvraj in and it can be dangerous for England.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Harsh on Swann, he's just come on to bowl. He's being attacked, need to see how he bounces back.

----------

I can understand Swann being brought on. Attacking spinner, team needs wickets, he bowls well to lefties, Yuvi isn't one to hold back from his shots. Worth a gamble.

And Yuvi's played him well thus far. Hope I'm not jixing him. But it would be nice to see Yuvraj get a good score here. The team needs it. And he needs to capitalise on that dropped catch.

----------

Trott seems seriously hurt. Good news for India.

^^ Trott has not done anything so far in this series. So nothing much to worry. 1 man down in batting is good though.

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

anyone thinks in years to come we're going to be bringing up Dravid in sentences that start with "in my day..."?

 

[SaiSrini]

Dont want to jinx these two....

 

[Haarithan]

I'm so farking mad at KP now, I mean it! England better bowl them out within 300, else the game's over even before they think of it, unless of course we're there to witness another GABBA special.

 

[Adarsh]

This is a big test for Swann. Although he bowled okay in the first test he only got 2 wickets. He's been bowling rubbish so far, and has been caned. Fair play to India, they did go after him, and have picked him off well.

 

[Cricketman]

Man, Rahul Dravid is such an awesome player. So classical. Wish there were more like him.

Hope he gets another well deserved ton and then some.

 

[aus_maestro]

England are still in this, one wicket before the new ball and it'll be interesting. I wouldn't be worried about any of the remaining batsmen against a new ball, especially with Anderson/Broad bowling.

Dravid is an immense test batsman though.

 

[puneet28]

And not to mention the fact that Swanny loves bowling to the lefties.

That's Why He Was Smashed 6 times by yuvraj in 4 overs

 

[teamindia]

Eng want the new ball soon so spinners on both ends.

----------

India have taken a lead...

 

[Haarithan]

Another century to Mr.Cricket! Sorry, but even Mike Hussey would agree with me on this.

 

[AkshayS]

Rahul Dravid, you're such a legend man, hitting the peak form at the right time. Now I just hope that Tendulkar gets some big score next innings.

Also Swann is getting bullied here. He's trying hard but he is not good enough.

 

[teamindia]

Swann needs a ban !! Kicking stumps

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Swann's got taken apart. By Dravid of all batsmen. That'll make Bhajji feel better.

Dravid is so awesome.
