***Official*** England in India 2016/17

[Jono]

Im out, just read hit wicket. Da ****? Description?

 

[Jono]

haha chill out guys, we still have some batting left and this pitch is still good for the most part. This is an easy draw. India ain't losing this.

Trump got elected president ffs

Kohli swivel-pulled a short ball from Rashid and swiveled his left foot back onto the bottom of leg stump. There was a couple of seconds of camera following ball before it was noted that the keeper was appealing.

 

[Shri]

Good recovery from these two. And with a guy who has three FC triples coming in next, we should be able to grind them out some more.

 

[Howe_zat]

had a big chance when Kohli was out, feels like it's slipping away a little. Still, two wickets after tea and we're in the driving seat.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Decent partnership. Another 50 odd runs and we should be safe.

 

[Jono]

having a lower order that can bat is quite nice for once.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Need a wicket quickly here.

The pitch is turning significantly now....wanna see India bowl

I think what you really mean is you want to see England bat

I think the way pitch is behaving now, Indian spinners will cause trouble to any side in the world except maybe Pakistan.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

About time we got him, was waiting for his hammy to go (oops wrong Saha)

Get an 80 lead here and that will be huge.

 

[artvandalay]

hope we don't rue not scoring quickly enough, we could use a troll Jadeja innings here.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yep, a nice jammy 40 from Jadeja would be great here.

 

[honestbharani]

Gotta say, Bairstow has not looked bad at all as a keeper. Not sure why it is such a big talking point often, though admittedly this is the first look of him I am getting as a full time keeper.


EDIT: Except his annoying habit of forcing forward defensive shots to be reviewed for LBW.

 

[Shri]

Are they waiting for the new ball to be taken to pick up the scoring rate?

 

[Shri]

England batted for 159.3 overs. India should beat that comfortably.

 

[GIMH]

Unless we take these three wickets for day 20-30 runs, this becomes the sort of situation where I'd rather be in India's position than ours. Still scarred by Adelaide I guess.

Jaddu's best FC efforts with the bat:
