England tour of India (5 Tests)

[asprin]

This partnership is gonna give frustrate India, a 4 or 6 every 10 balls and before you know the target would be down to 2 digits.

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Harley the new Jamieson for India.

 

[Supreme General]

Well that review was interesting

Couple of overs from Mukesh might help England get it down to 50 to win.

 

[Bevab]

Jaiswal’s innings has been the real difference maker in this test alongside other notable contributions.

Looks like you got your wish.

That and Bumrah's spell in the first innings.

Mukesh Kumar wicket.

I think it might not be happening lads

If Jimmy betters his high test score there's still a chance.

Keep em coming until the end of series.

 

[Aislabie]

In all seriousness, a really good win from India there. Much like England's win in the first Test, this was built on the back of two exceptional individual performances (Jaiswal and Bumrah).

Three more Tests like this, and it'll be an all-timer of a Test series

Second highest 4th innings score by an away side in India is pretty good going considering our two most experienced batters gave away their wickets.

Very impressed by Crawley and I could see Hartley usurping Leach next summer if he keeps doing what he's been doing.

Need more from Root and Bairstow.

If Brook returns I’d replace Bairstow with him.

If Brook returns I’d replace Bairstow with him.

I'd probably give Bairstow another match regardless of Brook's availability. Certainly the tail doesn't look as weak as it seemed initially with Rehan and Hartley both making useful contributions.

Root's form is the most worrying. If there's a real chance of winning the series (which I still think is a real long shot) I can't see it happening without him contributing.
