India tour of England 2018

I feel England gonna put up a huge total on the board. I'm curious to see how this bowling unit perform. I'm the big fan of Umesh and the way he bowls at the start of innings will get him atleast one wicket in first 10 overs. It's risky to use him in the middle overs as he leaks more runs, but he would've been a fine bowler to open the bowling with. He isn't playing which is unfortunate although I'm looking forward to what Shami and Bumrah are upto.
 
It should have been Ishant for the starting spell..The form he is in would have made a difference..

We are putting up a masterclass on how not to use the new ball. Bowling way too short.

We are starting to put Bollywood length dresses in bowling too , everything is short..

We need to go back to classic movies and bowl full..:p
 
Shami takes the whole first innings to gets it right :p.
With Shami it's easy to see whether he is in rhythm or not..See his run his if he has the slightest of pause in his running just before the crease , he isn't in the flow..If runup is like a 60fps game then he is..

Look who's talking about 60fps gaming.

Guy(s) with a integrated graphics :D.
 
These two are mostly bowling back of a length balls which is ridiculous. They aren't allowing the ball to do anything.
 
Yeah great start for England this but made easy for them with the short and wide bowling presents

Agree with commentators about slip cordon too, they are practically sitting in each other’s laps

Don't worry. The mathematical mind is still computing means of getting wickets.
 
I can bowl better line and length than them..

Also what's with Ishant delay..

Just angled seam bowled full would get results..

Now make this like and ODI and make them score at 6rpo..

Say what you want. We do not have an eye for test match quality. Bumrah and Pandya should br nowhere near the test squad, let alone the XI. They bowl that defensive back of length crap which might save runs in white ball. We bowled some real trash in that half an hour.
 
England running away here

Atrocious bowling with the new ball. Can't expect much from Bumrah. But a lot is expected from Shami and he once again proves that he just can't be trusted. You just never know which Shami will turn up. The one who looks like a pedestrian, school boy bowler or the one who looks threatening enough to run through the best of the lineups

The conditions were conducive to swing and they have wasted them. It's only going to get easier to bat from this point onwards
 
I agree it seems like England playing an ODI.
