The weather forecast for Days 2 to 5 is dire, so it looks like they have a total of two and a half days to come up with a result. Not impossible with England's batting, but surely unlikely.

Very patchy but a result still looks likely to me. Especially if the rain makes batting difficult.

If the forecast is right today will be waaaay better for batting than any other day will be.

Maybe better not to regard Broad and Anderson as a single entity, especially as there's a fair difference in their ages. Anderson's performances against NZ concerned me, but he's proved me wrong more than once before, so who knows.
He just got his FC career best last month. Definitely should be concerned about him.

YJB handed a cap to commemurate his 75th test, so definitely in the xi today. Onwards and upwards YJB.

No Ashwin and no Ishant. Unsure I can see India taking 20 wickets, tbh!
This is what I mean by being amazed at the pessimism. Indian batsmen struggle against swing, sure. But thinking that Shami, Siraj, and Bumrah can't take 20 wickets against this English batting lineup? Really?
