That's with the golden, though, and actually what prompted the question.

Good bowling but some fairly indisciplined batting too.

Posted after Strauss went. I'm blaming Corrin for the collapse.
This is true, but the scoreline was more a reflection of how poorly India had played rather than how well we'd gone. India have stepped up second innings, it's fair to say.
I doubt anyone but the most one-eyed Indian fanboy would demur, tbh.

Shocking revelation that Australia (and WI before them) were much more dominant than India are now...
TBH live, I thought he had grassed it - maybe because of the way he slid. One of the few instances where replay made it look cleaner than live, at least for me.
Very good bowling and mediocre batting I'd say.
As top the pitch, who knows. Looks okay and we keep getting told there's a period of batting dominance just round the corner. But England often struggled to their 1st innings total against a Khan-less attack, India's stellar batting only made a mediocre score and now England are collapsing like a collapsy thing.

Bit of both, and Sharma did that thing where he's a world beater for half an hour.

Cricinfo says that he is on the way back to the ground, so most probably might bat. But no word on how fit he is now to bat.

No, glorious shot isn't it. Looks a proper bat when he plays like that.
I am always of the opinion that Broad is better batsman than some of those batting higher.Earlier his defense was a bit loose but there was no doubt about his driving prowess

Yeah, And Harbhajan is also better than most of the batsmen batting above him. Should have both of them open all matches for India and England and do away with Cook, Trott, Dravid etc.
