Can't complain about Harbhajan's dismissal. It's our stupid stubbornness to not use DRS. Harsha makes a good point. Why not use hotspot for nicks in LBW decisions? And use hawk eye in checking the impact is in line or not. There's no projection on that! But who is going to put sense into BCCI officials' minds.

Been making that point for long now.

Though that is not a BCCI decision alone,it is dire.

Pretty good catch by Bell.

****ing Stuart Broad of all people doing well against India :mad:

Well it was obvious after the way he was being abused by Indian fans before the series. :laugh:

Same as Yuvraj getting runs today, England fans dislike him and he comes good.

Think they call it karma.:)

lost our last 6 for 21, 15 of which came from the last pair, pathetic. Need England 3 down by the time they wipe the deficit, don't fancy us chasing down anything over 150.

Well-bowled, Stuart Broad. Been the most influential player of the series so far. Kind of shocking to see that his average still hovers around 35 when he is able to bowl such match-turning spells.

Will be interesting to see if the English batting clicks collectively for once in the series.

Down to about 33 now after that.

Him and Ishant are very similar. When they get it right they are so good but they can also be bloody horrendous and quite often on the same day too.

Harsha's head is buried too far up the arse of the BCCI. They make their bed, they lie in it.

Can't have any sympathy for them getting a dud call. He'd have gone on to make seven anyway, the way Broad was bowling.

Just wow!

What a Test this is. This can still go everywhere! Though it feels as if India's 67 run lead is actually England's lead.......

Broad averaging 10 runs a wicket in the series, and that's with 6-7 dropped catches/LBWs not being given !

These 11 overs are crucial. If Cook and Strauss are there until the end of the day. England will have the upper hand. If India can pick up a couple of wickets though it could be a different story.

Anything over about 150 will be a tough chase in the 4th innings, though with Dravid in the form he's in I wouldn't rule anything out.
