***Official England in India***

[Precambrian]

This is so like India's tour of SA in 2006. Everyone had written off Ind after the dismal show in the ODIs and yet they won the first test match. Same happening to England and unless their bowlers terribly underperform and their batsmen do terribly, England all set to do an India here.

WoW, c&b's in consecutive overs, struggling to think where I've ever seen that before.

Shame I couldn't watch the second what with Sky being down. At least there's CricInfo.

Tendulkar!!!!!!

And CW is stunned into silence.

Absolutely vital last hour now - if England can shift one or both of these two ....

 

[irfan]

Badrinath to be our saviour! Oh wait

Caught by Penesar. You got to feel Laxmen got alittle unlucky knowing the way Monty catches.

**** England would have been good money at the TAB.

Yeah they were at $9.00 before the start of the match.

Fantastic performance by England here, full credit to them.

Gutted. Never seen him batting so freely in this decade and knew the bubble was going to burst sooner than later. Daymn.

All of a sudden some turn for MSP as well, I see now that Sky is (temporarily, I suspect) working again.

Enfgland still paying 2.37 as of this moment.

Where? That is ridiculously tempting. Would like to put something on before we lose another wicket.

Go grab it. I don't see us getting back easily with Yuvraj out there.

 

[superkingdave]

Little bit of movement for Flintoff out there, just a bit off line at the moment toi yuvraj

Great, just what you need when you've got a team on the rack - give away 5 runs in 2 overs through utterly needless casual fielding.

India have saved the follow on thanks to some dire fielding.

Obv the follow-on was hypothetical, but professionals messing up in the field pees me off no end. Especially 3 bits in 2 overs.
