*Official* Second Test at Lord's - Aug 12-16 2021

[Manee]

I think all England fans saying things like 180 is a difficult score cannot be watching this game. This is an absolute road and although Sibley, Burns and Hameed are slightly suspect, I refuse to believe Bairstow, Butler, Curran and Root can all give their wickets away here. The only hope for India is that Rishabh Pant gets going and knocks things north of 220-lead.

.. although Sibley, Burns and Hameed are slightly suspect .....

Just a bit ..

 

[Uppercut]

Burns is better than Buttler surely?

 

[Manee]

Just a bit ..

Was optimistic about Hameed until he missed a straight one.

I`m interested to see how Pant plays this... particularly with the new ball looming.

[Uppercut]

Lol smoked that so hard the cameras couldn’t keep up.

 

[Spark]

Genuinely not sure it's possible to hit a cricket ball much harder than that.

 

[Spark]

Well that's anticlimactic.

 

[cnerd123]

not enough runs

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

waiting for how england bowls to bumrah

 

[StephenZA]

At least we get to watch some good old fashioned tail enders try get some runs?

 

[Burner]

England will doddle this imo.

 

[Uppercut]

With all the talk of India’s tail we forgot that Pant vs the new duke ball wasn’t a great match up for them either.

 

[social]

Robinson is a good bowler and could do well in Australia

Done better than most tbh. I feel like India have limited Pant's potential quite a bit by giving him atrocious lower order players to work with. Not great when you're having to farm the strike when the team is 6 down.

I genuinely thought Ishant was a nightwatchman at first, before I remembered

 

[OverratedSanity]

**** it, send Ishant in at number 4 next time

nightwatchman for the tail. Shami is better than him isnt it
