India tour of England 2018

[Prequel]

Bring in Rory Burns, hes still 28, quite young.

Might not happen, two quick wickets at needed to swing this back to India. Cannot allow Root and Jennings to settle and dig in. Both can inflict great damage especially while Jennings knows his place is on the line.

Ashwin bowling some crap here. India seem to be feeling thr pressure of knowing they cannot chase any total of substance in the final innings.

 

[LiveLoveABD]

Ashwin fit?

 

[aditya123]

The bowling has been atrocious in the last 20 minutes. We have given away a boundary every over. Series very much gone now.

Its high time Shami turns up today. He has very often bowled some pies this series. If not he should be dropped for the next test given how recklessly he has batted at crucial times and conceded runs.

 

[abhi_jacko]

i am certain that had zero sincerity but you fulfilled the criteria so money coming your way

Haha wow. True to your word eh

But there is a bit of sincerity .. Ashwin not looking half as threatening as moeen and he is supposed to be one of the best in the world. So by simple relative comparison, moeen is the best spinner

 

[abhi_jacko]

Ugh.... Shami has been so frustrating. Looks like today one-boundary-ball-per-over Shami has turned up. And Ashwin is not being effective at all. We are doomed ..


Can't expect Ishant and Bumrah to perform everytime.[DOUBLEPOST=1535802814][/DOUBLEPOST]And 100 runs added and it game over for us really. And I don't see who is going to stop england from scoring another 100 odd

 

[abhi_jacko]

What does this knock mean for Jennings? He will stick around for the next test series?

Its like Rohit often doing juuuuuuuuust about enough to stick around for another series. Just circumstantial comparison. Jennings is any day a better Test batsman than Rohit

 

[aditya123]

England ahead here for sure. Root is playing onr of the innings of his test career. 150 not too far off either.

Yes England are ahead but India are not out of it.

**later on it was confirmed asprin was right in stating no attempt at reverse psychology as England beat India in the 2018 test series 4-1. Kohli was stripped of captaincy and Shastri reinstated as opening batsman**

Don't care. I'm happy with the title.

But jeez, 4-1? Confidence much? I was only referring to this match.

 

[Villain]

Just one wicket of Root and we're sorted, their lower order isn't going to click every single time.

Lol not confident at all

Just one wicket of Root and we're sorted, their lower order isn't going to click every single time.

And... he's gone.

 

[aditya123]

The pressure of not having scored in the last 4 overs is what got us this runout. Even if Ashwin doesnt get wickets, if he can keep one end locked, it will allow the quickmen to be fresh. His last 4 overs have been much better.
