Haha love it, India talked up as having a serious chance of taking the series at the start of the summer, and here we are on the first day of a pivotal test and the best thing anyone can say about them is how one of their tailenders looks like he's not an absolutely shithouse batter

India are ****ed. Spineless batsmen in testing conditions - now, then, forever.

Tbf, in this forum, Indian fans were being realistic but were perceived to be Gambhiring before the series began.

Haha back then we had a top 5 all averaging 40+, probably 50+ that year on the most part whereas now we have one averaging 50 and the rest averaging 12.

Tell you what though, Ollie Robinson has me feeling a lot better about our fast bowling in the future. An attack with him and Archer in...

I think that India did have a chance this series.. you don't go to Australia and win a series there without being a decent side. But I think horrible selection and just a mental block has hurt them. Not dissimilar to the series in SA where selection probably cost them the series against a very much weakened SA side.

We were carrying a bowler in Stuart Broad who definitely wasn't better than Sreesanth or Ishant though.
