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

[indiaholic]

Nice...

Yes Jaddu!

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Right... now India are into our best batsmen.

150 for a month, 200 for 2 I think.

Done!

And the live stream directly lead to Jaddu taking a wicket!

Would have preferred a wicket to Ash though.

 

[Burgey]

This is what is really worrying me with DRS atm........I reckon the umpires are playing a bit with it.

India have no reviews but England do, so he gives it out knowing if he's ****ed up England have the chance to correct it. If he gives it not out India can't do anything and a potential crook decision stands.

This is not the way it should be handled IMO.

Reckon you're spot on here.

Where's chris woakes when you need him?

This will be done before tea.

Fun stat: Root and Stokes have the same number of away centuries(Stokes has one in Aus though!)

 

[Contra]

Fair to say Ashwin's finding Root a slightly tougher proposition than Williamson to dismiss.

Nah he's bowled well to him so far, there was a missed catch early on as well. The difference between these wickets and the ones against NZ (not counting the second test which was a seamers wicket) is the lack of turn on offer. These pitches have had variable bounce but hardly any turn which makes it that much tougher for a bowler like Ashwin since he doesn't spin it big to begin with. I'm not even talking big turn, just a reasonable amount and Ashwin becomes twice the bowler, same with Jadeja.

Fun stat: You are a boring troll.

 

[Rootfan]

Root has definitely had it easy with Indian pitches. If he got th pitches AB and Amal got last year he'd average 20 tops.

That's not a stat. Poms being unable to take criticism is nothing new though. Shouldn't you be celebrating Murray's fluke over Djokovic?

Amla couldn't even manage 20. Root better than amla confirmed.

Sorry you are correct it is not a stat in the words of Rafa Benitez it is a FACT

'holic mentioned hotstar somewhere iirc. Worth getting?

niskarsh jain: "Jadeja has bowled 22 overs on the trot, his spell read 22-11-22-2, the symmetry between the numbers is amazing. Number and its prime factors." I thing of beauty

What was I saying about Cricinfo and their lack of insightful comments, I take it all back.
