England In India - October 2011/12

He could have a role to play here, though. But if he got a century against this attack, would it really change much?

He could well be in a similar scenario to the last Test, albeit perhaps not 600.

Are you sure about that?
 
Who bowls quicker?

RP Singh,
Jonathan Trott or
Suresh Raina...

M too confused, i guess trott is the quickest
 
Are you sure about that?

Well...

170-0 in that session. That again please for the final session, though with the new ball you'd expect the run rate to drop a little. Though maybe not, I thought Mishra tied KP down a little around the wicket.

600 lead at Lunch tomorrow and declare?
 
there is too much of cricket, people are tired of watching it, that's why Dhoni is making Raina bowl so that people can take a break till he finishes his spell:lol
 
Why is Raina still in the team?
Its a tribute to Michael Jackson by our selectors and MSD, the way Raina dances against the quick bowlers is just awesome. :p:p:p
 
RP Singh? are you kidding me? only took a couple of injuries to show india's lack of depth. they already have sreenath or whatever that guy's name is who danced after that six. i couldve swore this was the useless attack they had 10 years ago.

england are dam good guys, dam good. really looking forward to england v south africa - i dont think the saffas are far off them. will be a cracker. but i can't help but feel that world cricket is in a hell of a lull of talent when you have ian bell scoring centuries!! but then they are playing india...

good to see KP back in form. good to see england get on top to be honest. hated them in 05, really hated them...them cheats. but after living there for 3 years and realising all the poms do is worship those pansies (90% from overseas) that fall over all day getting a finger nail broken (soccer)....they need some decent reading in the sports sections. would make it worth reading past page 3.

nah mate - the reason dhoni is making raina and sachin bowl is so they have something in the runs column when they get home. sweet sweet home....india, the land where you have more centurions in the first innings of a summer than there are results in a series.
 
There's pages past three?

believe me i was surprised when i got back to oz. the best we get is our hidious female PM on page 3. unbelievable england of all places still allow that - but then lets be honest.....the english will be over run by immigrants within the decade so live it up while you can!
 
beefy is a crap commentator at best let's be honest. has made some terrible blunders concerning getting a bit too patriotic (as per bill lawry for australia and gavaskar and that other useless bowler for india who really piped up when harbajaan spin was racist...not even worth remembering his name he was so crap Edit: turns out on further review ravi shastri wasnt a good bowler at all, nor batsmen...must be a freelance journalist then!). but god its good listening to him paying out on india! he did call it though - about over number 3 in the first test - england will win this series easily! took him 15 years though...anyone after 15 years would get their calls right. how bout warnie...even his voice sounds younger. those slimming pills still taking effect.

They're not called the multi-cultural cliffs of Dover for nothing.

dover....never seen a better sight. i landed in london a day earlier than my visa was ready to go, so had to wing it over to calais on the boat and back a day later to activate it. some of the rubbish i saw in calais i will never forget. nearly got ????? by some 30 stone afghan walking from the docks to my hotel....he went after my balls but didnt realise i hade a googly and a zooter up my sleeve....went straight past the outside edge thank god.

to get back to those cliffs was a god send let me tell you.

gotta also love the indian commentators - "some easy test runs to be made here". why have i never heard that when they commentate home games? and then he calls KP slogging them with the left hand "unfair". well let me tell you mate - batting on falt decks your whole life is unfair in terms of records.....now he's whinging about records tumbling. turn it up buddy!!

Part of me wants a declaration because I've got a bet on and want England to have the best chance of forcing a result but the other wants too see them grind them into the ground repeatedly.
