He is Indian version of Darren Sammy. A specialist captain.

I have been advocating this point from a long time.
In sports luck matters. And unfortunately Virat is very unlucky person .

Real champs score both hundreds at once in their 100th test tbh

Shows how valuable Pujara is to India. Quite a boring player but a match winning player. Other than Pujara rest of the Indian players batted like they were in a one day international. It's not criticism but it's just the tempo with which they bat. India needs another Pujara in the line up.

You guys did have the tough task of defending Anderson’s away average on CW for 18 years in great threads like ‘Anderson v Ambrose’ etc.

I really hope he can keep doing this for a few more years, get that average sub 25.

Told you guys, underestimate England at your own risk. This is not Atherton, Stewart, Irani, Ealham side who are just spectators and crib about pitch being too slow, the current England side are here to win and they made it clear today.
Now wear that badge of 227 run loss or pay teen guna lagaan.

This Anderson bloke seems to be bowling quite well. Anyone know much about him?

England's mistake last series was to not grind India to oblivion with the multiple chances that they had throughout the series. This time, Root has made it a point to score 600 when you get going. India lost this game in the first innings imo. They score 450 in return and this match probably never sees a result.

Mate, given the current COVID regulations governing non-use of saliva, credit also has to go to the English slips cordon. Standing in the sun for 6 hours with a Murray Mint in your anus is an amazing feat of endurance.

Agree, this England team is legit. They've got a great balance of experienced players in prime form (Root, Stokes, Anderson) with some younger players who have bedded in over the last 12-18 months, and who look assured at this level (Sibley, Crawley, Bess, Pope)
I think England will stay grounded (Silverwood and Root give off a low-key calm demeanour), and realise that India will come back hard at them in the next test. You could see that there were no histrionics or over the top celebrations - they're well aware that the hard work starts now

Pretty sure Broad will kill if he doesn't play in the second, so think Jimmeh will hit the pine, yeah.

lmao yeah if only they had thought of "not allowing" England to score runs. I guess the strategy of "not losing" didn't occur to them at any point.
