Two thirds of the lead will be wiped off before Tea break.

 

[Manee]

It is a shame this isn't chess and India can't just wave the white flag.

When India play bad you guys make @wpdavid look like an optimist

No offence David

Been building for a while tbh. It's the sheer pig-headed arrogance that does one in.

 

[Flem274*]

The frustration is understandable but Hameed looks like he's going to get out every ball.

They can't bat either guys.

We all had hope once. But then 2011 happened, then 2014 and then 2018.

I don't think Sibley would have scored 10 runs already.

[honestbharani]

@Howe_zat and @Uppercut were right all along, huh?

 

[Shri]

siraj or shami should have opened with bumrah

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Anyone just tuning in and checking the England score would think we’d won the toss and Burns and Sibley had been batting all day.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The slips are too close to each other.

 

[honestbharani]

We are not gonna bowl them out for less than 100. Need to concentrate on limiting the lead and bowling properly and hopefully get them all out for less than 200.

 

[Arachnodouche]

lol@how visibly dejected Indian commentators look when the side mucks up. Look at Karthik, giggly like a schoolgirl usually. Now looks like someone took a **** in his cereal.

I admire your optimism but India are being as pathetic as possible to give the England batsmen some runs and confidence and everything they need because they don't know anything other than rolling over for England in England.

oh yeah our number 1 problem right now

Because he's embarrassed that this is the best that the country can offer.

 

[honestbharani]

Shami is gonna prove me wrong and take a bucket load here. And then we will continue to play him even if it is obvious these are not the conditions best suited to him and we have others who can do a better job overall.

 

[Aritro]

Sharma's bowling weirdly round-arm today. He's either got a shoulder strain or he's badly out of rhythm

Uh what - this past decade has undoubtedly been the best in the history of Indian cricket.
