Good news! Let's take that customary false start out of the way; more importantly a less than par outing will only make this team hungrier going into the tests. Hopefully we'll get also atleast one englishman bragging ala mcgrath 5-0 before 05 ashes,

Yeah cause we all know how badly that series turned out for England.

Edit: Ahhh I see what you mean now. Tbf he also said they'd win 5-0 before Ashes 06/07

 

[Neil Pickup]

Err... as mentioned, I have had difficulty keeping my eyes open, but there was one pull shot that Compton looked to have hit very hard that I then saw dribble in a weird direction; might have been dropped by square leg. That's the only instance of anything I can recall.

 

[GIMH]

...about India's spin bowling reserves?

Because our captain hasn't score a run in ages and got 78

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Ah, that doesn't sound like a 'bring it on' attitude...

That is an attitude of wanting to win any way we can thanks.

To be fair though it is difficult for any bowler to make much of an impression on the road at Taunton. You'd only be worried as an Indian if the batting slumped to 100-6. If Somerset can score easily so will India.

Is it me or does Sreesanth have a gut and a half on him there?

Rain has stopped play meanwhile Suppiah is on 94.

Some?

Looks a right porker to me.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Yuvraj has just bowled a beamer at Compton when Nick dared to use his feet to him.

 

[G.I.Joe]

Sreesanth's certainly been sampling a lot of mum's cooking...

 

[Neil Pickup]

100 up for Suppiah with a delicate late cut off Waterboy.

I am trying to work out what message it sends to have Yuvraj & Raina bowling in tandem apart from "we want to bowl these remaining overs as quick as possible and go home."

 

[kingpin]

Is this a road or what!!Or we just sucking it???

lulling oppn into false security, so that they might play broad

 

[NasserFan207]

Both, probably. TBF Taunton is abomination (though I am biased). Hard to see this innings ending with Yuvraj and Raina though

 

[vcs]

Well, this is worrying now.

Plenty of county bowlers have seen off Suppiah this season at Taunton. Must be his first ton for some time.

Too many Jelly beans?

 

[NasserFan207]

Apparantly Mishra hurt his finger, which is why he hasn't been bowling. Bad for India, they really need him I'd have thought

Edit: Finally the breakthrough
