*Official* 1st Test at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, 05 - 09 Feb 2021

Watching our spinners, 1 ball you’re watching a test match the next it’d be bad in a village game.

 

[Gnske]

God if we somehow lose the series, just thinking about the Kohli Ewing theory possibilities makes me wet. Rahane must run him out second innings to save Indian cricket.

Can I get a rundown on this conspiracy?

 

[wpdavid]

I wonder whether Bess needs a breather for a while. Root could do worse than send down a few himself.

 

[social]

That over from Bess was full toss, half volley, long hop, full ball, half volley & short ball

Absolute trash & he’s got 3/49

 

[Arachnodouche]

Our batting can't fail forever against this bowling. Archer/Anderson decent but the spinners are junk.

 

[Pothas]

Got lucky with some of his wickets for sure but generally Bess has bowled pretty well today.

 

[TT Boy]

Leach needs 12 more balls and he can have Yasir Shah's record of worst E/R in a test innings.

 

[hazsa19]

Glad to be proved wrong but Leach doesn’t strike me as a bloke who would laugh it off and come back stronger

Because he wears glasses? Go home.

Go rewatch Headingley 2019 for a sign of his character.

Also that catch just now. Easy to drop that if your head's gone.

 

[Gnske]

And it takes the delivery of the match to take out Pant

Well done Bess, that was pure skill.

 

[tony p]

I better ask Bess to get me my Lotto numbers.

 

[Gremlin]

Bess hasn't bowled as well after tea but was as good as I've seen him prior to that. Yes the Pujara wicket was lucky but his figures are deserved.

 

[cnerd123]

Pant keeps getting out in the 90s

****ing Dom Bess.

days like today suck. Makes the Gabba much sweeter.

 

[Shri]

ffs

 

[Spark]

Okay Bess memeing out wickets like this is amusing for now but it's going to get old pretty quick

 

[OverratedSanity]

Aww I wanted a 1

 

[BoyBrumby]

Credit to Pant for trusting his MO, but more credit to Bess. Deliberately or not he tossed that one up a little wider.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Man, Pant just knuckle down ffs. Even as someone wanting England to succeed, he's great to watch. Completely brainless. The match context has to be taken into account

 

[Burgey]

Best keeper to spin I have seen, EASILY.
