***Official England in India***

[Precambrian]

Yeah, can't think I've ever seen a home crowd cheering dot-balls from their own team before now.

Unless they were batting out a draw with a wicket left and an over left.

[Precambrian]

Yeah, and people have overlooked that. This is even better though for me, as it's come batting fourth rather than third.

And against a good attack in a tough chase.

 

[silentstriker]

Another gem.

What can I say? It's a gift.

 

[TT Boy]

Thought it was an excellent Test match TBH.

It has been, just being an England supporter it's pretty hard to take.

On this pitch against these bowlers, I'd back the Indian lineup to chase down this total 0 times out of 7

Sehwag - poor second innings record
Gambhir - unproven
Dravid - dreadful form
Tendy - great player but limited history of matchwinning innings
Laxman - inconsistent
Yuvi - history says he's not up to it
Dhoni - talented tailender

dont think there is any thing much better than this

 

[Precambrian]

This is the best Tendulkar innings in a decade for me.

Unless they were batting out a draw with a wicket left and an over left.

The only time I had the chance to watch that I'd turned off in despair 2 hours earlier.

(And also, TBF, the crowds at the stadium that game was held at were at that time desultory)

At least for social's sake Dhoni didn't get a bat so that part couldn't be wrong.
