Yup, Root throws it away.

Nice catch though.

lolololololololol

as good as kohli and smith

 

[quincywagstaff]

Would’ve been easier if he’d been bowled the previous ball with a quality swinging delivery; to clip to square-leg in these circumstances is unforgivable.

Mitch Marsh has been terrific in the field today.

bad review stevey

 

[ImpatientLime]

you just know bayliss and farbrace are telling him to keep playing his 'natural' game and continue to show the same #intent.

absolute clown.

 

[Starfighter]

Smith's gesticulations are fantastic.

 

[StephenZA]

Is Root getting bored or something while batting? It really is becoming a bit ridiculous....

 

[fredfertang]

Quelle d'omage

 

[Starfighter]

OMG maybe our day now.

 

[ImpatientLime]

260 all out incoming.

 

[Gnske]

What an excellent way to ruin the day

 

[wpdavid]

Always give you a chance, doesn't he? At some point he really has to rethink his approach to an innings.

You'd hope so, although that would require rather more intelligence than we generally see from English batters.
Not giving chances to square leg at this stage of proceedings would be a step up.

lolololololololol

0 to 70, I would say Root is the world's best batsmen.

 

[ImpatientLime]

and you see, this is why root giving his wicket away freely is so damaging to the team.

what should have been comfortably englands day is now australias because of his absolute carelessness.

 

[wpdavid]

And here comes the collapse, thanks to our dimwitted captain letting them back into the game.

Whoever predicted 260 ao a bit earlier is probably spot on.

lots of critique from Indian fans on here.... has India won an away test series in Eng, SA or Aus in the past 20 years? Your cuisine travels well and is respected around the world, your cricketers less so.
