*Official* India Tour of England 2018

[OverratedSanity]

I'm in the 4 seamers, 1 spinner camp for England/Australia/South Africa so I would prefer Umesh but in the context of this particular match, it would probably have zero impact. Can't really judge a bowling attack when you've got 100 odd on the board

Quite. For all we know Umesh could've sprayed it around like he did in the first test and given away 20 in 3 overs.

 

[Gnske]

Cuts them as close as Warner too it seems.

 

[wpdavid]

Pope's riding his luck tbf.

 

[91Jmay]

Shami has a yard doesn't he? 88 MPH.

 

[Shri]

pope's very good eh

 

[fredfertang]

Going down - review it

 

[wpdavid]

It takes some confidence to review on debut.

EDIT
Let's hope that was under instruction from his captain. Poor cricket otherwise.

 

[TT Boy]

Very generous from Root but that’s out.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Oh hey Pandya did something with the ball

 

[vcs]

Pretty good innings that by Pope, looks a prospect.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good bowling that. Nice start by Pope. Probably won't bat again in this game.

 

[91Jmay]

Good ball but poor dismissal really. Jagged a lot but was caught on the crease.

 

[fredfertang]

It takes some confidence to review on debut.

EDIT
Let's hope that was under instruction from his captain. Poor cricket otherwise.

Game's already won though

England have got to drop Jennings and bring in Burns,

Jennings can't bat, can't bowl, can't field, can't catch.

Shame Pope got out. 28 is OK on debut first innings. He's outscored the other two at least.

 

[Howe_zat]

This could be a pretty feeble lead if Root keeps playing like he has been

 

[Jack1]

Gubbins is a talent but was shocking last season in division one. I don’t think either would set the world alight but I think Burns could at least do a job seeing off the new ball.

He wants Gubbins over Burns based on one game. Dumbest logic I've ever heard when Burns is a far superior bat.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

I kind of hope we get a shocker now as we deserve it for wasting our reviews.

 

[91Jmay]

Ball still doing plenty even in the sun. Score fast, no need to piddle around.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

He wants Gubbins over Burns based on one game. Dumbest logic I've ever heard when Burns is a far superior bat.

Not just one game tosser, but I don't rate Burns. If we select him I will get behind him but don't try to tell me what I am thinking mr misery.
