***Official*** England in India

Wouldn't put it past these ****wits to call up Dernbach, then pick him ahead of Onions.

Wish i was a fly on the wall to watch the steam come out your ears if that did happen.

 

[Viscount Tom]

If we call up Dernbach let it be for the women's team you know where people called Jade belong.

Over/Under on how many wickets Yuvraj, Raina, and Tiwary take in England's first innings?

 

[Daemon]

Hi boys, I'm back to give you your daily dose of updates.

Compton gone, pushing at one outside off and edging through to the keeper. Dinda gets his first wicket.

 

[Jono]

Good boy Daemon (y)

*gives Daemon some milk*

Yuvraj in the 11th over. Cover driven for four straightaway.

Devastated that Pathan didn't get a wicket

KP dismissed by Yuvraj Singh

lol - India should play Yuvraj and Ojha in the test match and that will be enough to take care of KP

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good start for Compton then, always a worry with makeshift openers. So basically we need Cook to score well in the first 2 games and let Root and Compton shoot it out in the last one for the opening berth in the tests.

KP out to Yuvraj, so predictable.

 

[Prince EWS]

"Left arm filth" strikes again

I loved that incident. So good.

 

[Daemon]

Raina picks up his second. Bell edges a cut to slip.

Going to be a long old tour.

Love seeing these soft poms get pummeled

 

[BoyBrumby]

Have to laugh really. If India A's orders were to not give us practice against spin, bowling Yuraj, Raina & Tiwary seems (ha) an odd way to go about it.

Could it just be the press was talking bollocks (I know, unprecedented) and the selectors wanted a look at India's "fast" "options"?

We may by India but then you will turn up in England and roll over for a tummy tickle like last time.

Na now that we've found out what we need to do, Clarkey will roll you over so you can enjoy the gloomy clouds in solitary

Maybe we've all got it wrong, and India reckon England are so inept against spin that Yuvraj et al would suffice.

England hasn't done their best to disprove that hypothesis today, I gotta say...

Scaly to come in here and whinge that India are bowling too much spin imo.

Certainly haven't. As I said, long tour.
