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

[Zinzan]

Well batted, his driving looks quite effortless doesn't it.

 

[Shri]

Lol, 200.

 

[Contra]

Awesome innings, his shot making is of high quality. Hasn't taken too much risk today at all. Anderson copping out on this pitch is hilarious too.

 

[Zinzan]

Jeez the kid looks like a headache for opposition sides in years to come. Not easy to dislodge.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Picked a good day to stay in bed.

So when do they declare and skittle us then? 700?

 

[Dan]

Please let Jos roll the arm over.

Ashwin has been batting rather selfishly! Wanted to say this long ago, but he's continued in the same vein.. when the requirement is to bat more or less aggressively, he's definitely looking for a safe 100!

I'd put the foot down in the next hour looking to score at 5-6s an over & risking being bowled out, declare with a lead of 200-220 with 15 overs to have a crack this evening.

 

[Shri]

300 runs as a bat for Ashwin in this series. Wag.

Champion atm.

He should hold his end and let Nair and Jaddu attack.

 

[cnerd123]

Lol Nair making the 200 Rahul missed out on

 

[Heboric]

Wow a long stop, havent seen that since primary school

 

[Shri]

Lol Nair has some tricks up his sleeve.

 

[Agent TBY]

I guess we can move Nair up to three and drop Pujara for Rohit.

- Kohli thoughts

 

[Zinzan]

Really interested in Indian's very best Test line-up at home assuming everyone's fit

 

[Burner]

Nair's in the Rohit mould, isn't he? Got some skin on him, has that lazy strokeplay going, and can effortlessly dominate when he's set.

 

[Shri]

Everyone at the fence is really annoying. I would get caught out unless I am batting for time.

 

[Shri]

Waaaaah

Yes. We want to be getting at least 15 overs at them tonight, with a couple or so each for the spinners. Hopefully get a couple of cheap wickets. Have to go full slog mode in a few overs from now.
