India tour of England 2018

What was all the hype regarding the Kohli LBW on CB? Anyone saw it? Was it out and still the 3rd umpire got it wrong?
The ball passed the bat and bat hit the pad at the same time. The third umpire ruled not out on pretext of an inside edge.

It was a very wrong call. Kohli was gone, it was crashing into leg stump. Horrible decision.

Whatever works for India, that's all that matters now. :p

I think the third umpire took the on field umpire's call as an indication and ruled in the batsman's favour.
 
Until Kohli is there, the game is still in India's hand. Rahane doing a great job to provide support and getting his eye in. It is a pretty well-poised game at the moment.

Moeen Ali definitely deserves a wicket with the quality of his bowling today.
Rahane scored 52 & 54* here some time ago.Mo took 13 wkts here in last 3 innnings but for me he is still Part timer.he gets more help from track.Jadeja might better choice here than pandya or ash because he knows how to utilize those Rough spots.

England doing number of appeal without reason as they not have reviews left.

3rd umpire is original umpire.

I think it's still very difficult for India to scores 137 runs or even 60 to win with 7 wickets in hand.

Regardless of result, this series very exciting.For last few years, England have tendency to loose first test of each series - it's happen 3rd time but vs India it's works reversed as eng.win narrowly.i think think test England will win, it's matter of time.We have weather in India just like weather at Ageas bowl.
 
New ball due after 30 overs.100* run stand for 4th wicket highest stand for Ageas bowl, beating
99 runs stand between cook /root for the 4th wicket

Kohli completed 4000 as captain but he is out off Moeen Ali 58
 
Thats it well played both teams and well played England on series win.
 
Well, the Kohli-Rahane partnership ensured that India competed. Wish the rest show the same spirit even if we go down here (which we likely will).

As far as Pandya and Pant are concerned, counter attack (which is their comfort zone) is what will bring them success. Two fellows who have been thrust into test cricket despite not yet showing signs that 'they belong here', they have to wiggle their way out by playing what comes best to them. Even if it means going down in the process. Rahane to hold one end up and Pandya-Pant go bonkers. If they can eat up 40-50 of the remaining runs and Rahane stays put, Ashwin-Ishant can hopefully give some support to get this close. All this is lofty wishes..... for all you know, this could all end in a few overs right after tea.
 
Also post this series KL Rahul should go back to his house look in the mirror and say do I WANT TO BE NEXT ROHIT SHARMA? I have immense talent, people have prized me as the next big thing but do I have that in me? The way he plays he seems like a person who will only do good in home conditions
 
Need 119 with 6 wickets in hand - Rahane, Pandya, Pant and Ashwin.. very tough road ahead but if we persist we will chase this down.

And just so Kohli is out I don't think our chances are zero like our friends here who have this zero hope in the team and keep changing their stance along with over the top criticism and negative thinking, don't want to offend anyone but I believe in our team we have immense potential and skill. Never lose hope!
 
Pant needs to be sent out with a clear message saying go for it! We are going down as is so it won't be any harm.
