Calling Broad princess seems laughably out of date TBH

Someone needs to dig up that picture of Broad in the tutu

 

[BeeGee]

Congrats India.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Sweet. Good win.

 

[GIMH]

Yeah well played India. Big job on our hands now.

 

[Shri]

Bairstow has been as awesome as I feared. Mohali is expected to turn the least and generally has good bounce. If I were Kohli/Kumble, I would pull a fast one and request a turner from Mohali's curator.

I made that, I think.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

At least Rashid is still the leading spinner from both sides with most wickets and lowest average.




For now.

We went 1-0 up in both of the last two England series and managed to **** things up from there, so I think it's safe to say we're losing this series 2-1

Just like the Saf series then lol. This pitch didn't really turn much tbh, many of the wickets were because of the low bounce.

Ashwin and ashwin-lite.

 

[wpdavid]

Bah humbug.

Well played India, but let's not play them again with hopeless cases like Ansari and Duckett please.

 

[Contra]

Bhuvi really needs to be brought back in the next test. A straight swap for either of the Yadav's depending on whether its a seamers wicket or spinners.

He's bowled well tbf. Definitely the biggest surprise this series for me in terms of exceeding pre-series expectations.

 

[Shri]

Did Ash and Giant just thank the interviewer at the same time?

Not doing much to dispel the cloning rumors.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Decent win that.

Hopefully will bring a smile to the face of the many Indians who Modi wants to destroy.

Kohli MotM for me.

Ashwin and Shami also played well.

 

[Howe_zat]

Hang on you're telling me Zafar Ansari didn't save us?

When Bhuvi's back for home tests, we could have a lower order of Ashwin-Saha-Jadeja-Jayant-Bhuvi. Almost approaching England levels of hax depth.

 

[Contra]

When Bhuvi's back for home tests, we could have a lower order if Ashwin-Saha-Jadeja-Jayant-Bhuvi. Almost approaching England levels of hax depth.

Bhuvi is officially back and available, he even played a FC game as per "protocol". But yes that would be so awesome, even without his batting though I'd want him back as our second seamer, Umesh can be picked as a 3rd seamer if its a pitch that doesn't offer much turn.
