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

[duffer]

I want some Dabur Shilajit.

 

[duffer]

Nostrils!

 

[Contra]

yessssssss! YADAV!

 

[anil1405]

much needed that.

 

[Howe_zat]

Man it was nice thinking we were almost back in it

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Great ball

 

[Shri]

Great stand this, could all turn to dust when the new ball is taken though.

Good job.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Good shot, Johnny.

 

[Contra]

India did manage to pull back the run flow in the last couple of overs as well. Really solid delivery from Yadav.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Was a good delivery. Just got beaten a little for pace. Maybe should have tried to dig it out rather than cream it through mid-wicket.

Will do brilliantly to make 300 from here.

 

[Burgey]

Nostrils on the pre-game steaks. Good to see.

 

[indiaholic]

He is vegetarian Burgey..

 

[hazsa19]

Ah! He hadn't looked particularly comfortable out there. Decent partnership though, some good batting, patience, no alarms in the pitch. Makes yesterday's 'effort' look even more pathetic and will be all the more galling when we eventually lose this match.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

The yorker is an underused ball to Bairstow considering how high his backlift is.

 

[Contra]

Yeah I was gonna mention how high he keeps his bat, and the fact that he's a tall guy so sneaking in a yorker with pace is always worth a try.

 

[honestbharani]

Ridiculous from Ashwin. What was he thinking?

India should have a rule that says that Kohli, Ashwin, Jadeja, Shami should never get to decide on reviews. Saha should take the final call, just because he seems calmer than this lot.. Or maybe Rahane and Pujara?

ojah the only other option

Nah.. DK has been doing well with the bat and have not heard anything about his keeping, means he is doing well, even though the other guy kept wickets in the last game for TN.

Well, you guys are winning at the Gambhiring for sure.

 

[Contra]

And unlike our cash in our banks, India can use the 264 they have in their bank.

!!

 

[indiaholic]

Hardly gambhiring when you are six wickets down and have a 250+ run deficit.

 

[Howe_zat]

Nah, come off it. We were another session of Stokes and Bairstow away from being back in the game.

 

[Blocky]

If Broad could refind anything like how he used to bat upon coming into the team, you guys might still have a chance at getting close enough to make it interesting.

But, as usual, losing the toss = losing the match overseas.
