England tour of India (5 Tests)

[Aislabie]

The whole Bumrah spell after Lunch was just phenomenal to watch.

I completely agree. I think it says a lot about how well he and Kuldeep bowled that every single member of the English top seven was got out apart from Crawley. (Gutted about the Crawley dismissal - he was making batting look so so easy in that way he sometimes does)

I actually thought Duckett's was pretty soft. Tentative defensive prod. Not very Bazball.

Thought Crawley was on for an Old Trafford style big one.

That is fair, but he was still got out by the turn and bounce even though he could have played it better by whipping out a reverse Dhoni bosh or something

Perfect!

This is a great one

Imagine being that good at anything

England did well to reach where they did after being 7 down. Some precious deficit erased.

If India are to pose any threat, they will need to set a target of 350+. If it's less than 300, then I think England will back themselves to score those even if it's the 4th innings.

They will easily set that

The setup to Root with masterclass of reverse swing bowling and then giving a brute of a lollipop to Ollie Pope.

Fast bowling at its very best.

If it wasn't for him today England would have ended with say 320-3 by the end of Day.

Yeah England need to find a way to deal with him better in next 3 tests or series will be gone

Anderson with a beauty to start off 3rd day.

The body language ot Indian players are so so defensive.

Ffs you guys have a lead of 140+

England have a good chance here if they can get India under 150-200

 

[pillowprocter]

Jimmy up to 695

KP on Air - Nelson for 3.

The most Aussie thing a South African born player who played for England can say.

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Iyer has thrown it away again.

He should be getting a back spasm in the next game for sure.

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Irony!

"Right lads, we've got two days left and need to score 350. But, we need to do it in 30 overs before Bumrah starts reversing it."

I'm in.
