England's tour of India - 2021

[Sherlock Holmes]

Siraj should be the fourth choice seamer now

He already is

 

[blockerdave]

Did the rules about leg byes going against the bowler change? They still have Siraj as 1-0 but there were 4lb his last over

 

[Bigby Wolf]

Kuldeep Should get a wicket or two atleast on this track.

Mo will choose this Test to roar back into form....

Foakes looking good here having played 10+ overs.

Having said that, it seems batting has become a tad easier with the old ball. Still a challenge but Indian bowlers have been known to struggle with the lower order.

Well played again!

@zimrahil you keeping an eye on him?

Always

he has always taken wickets (at 4 rpo) and his batting has always been sus. Playing at 8 is about right for him imo

Why didn't India enforce follow-on?

Why didn't India enforce follow-on?

Lead was just 196.

They didn't have the option.

Are people watching Pant's keeping in this Test? He has improved massively. He showed a little improvement when he played in NZ last year and did decently well in Australia a month ago. Today he probably had his best day on the field with gloves on!!! He brought out some Dhoni level stuff!!

Somebody please tell Rohit & Gill that match isn't over yet. Don't go for glory shots this early only to regret later. We never know England might chase down 350-odd playing around 130-140 overs.

Almost 200 run lead it's the perfect situation to just smash it. Take the pitch out the equation, use the hard ball and stick another 100 runs onto the lead.

Well this is Indian team. You never know when they turn complacent and let England get off without pressure. I would be a little worried until we get close to the 150 run mark.
