***Official*** 4th Test @ The Oval, London - 2nd-6th September

[wpdavid]

Spoiler: ‘This Just In’

We will take four poles in the first hour

I reckon we need something like that. Four by lunch seems the minimum requirement to me.

 

[trundler]

If the series is drawn at the end of this test, we should have a cage gambhiring match between wpdavid and Manee

 

[SteveNZ]

Jarvo has bowled more balls in this series than Ashwin, that can’t be right

You call that 'effort' last night a delivery? Not I.

Poor old Jarvo. People thought he was funny until that piss weak effort, now they're sick of him. Leave them wanting more, Jarvo.

 

[Nintendo]

Jarvo was funny the first 2 times, whole narrative about him being apart of the Indian team was great. Tackling Bairstow, accidental or not, is a completely different story. No better than any middle aged obese nude streaker you get at that point.

 

[mackembhoy]

England must be quite scared now. We’re only 60 behind and unless clouds come out tomorrow we’ll put on plenty of runs.

It's pretty overcast in South London.

Doesn't look like it will burn off well into the afternoon.

Hope for England. As it looked flat as anything yesterday.

 

[harsh.ag]

Clouds in London, you say. That's unexpected.

I'm very positive when cricket isn't currently happening on TV.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

The extravagant uncertainty is the best thing about these two teams. I wouldn’t be surprised if we rolled them for 170 and wrapped up the match today, but there’s a couple of batsman capable of going big and that wouldn’t be a surprise either.

Good one

 

[White Ball]

This Jarvo nonsense in all seriousness has to stop. How was that idiot allowed to the ground 3 separate times? And although he just seems to be an attention seeker surely this is a huge security hazard.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Probably the last chance for Rohit, Pujara, Kohli, and Rahane (and possibly for Pujara and Rahane to save their test careers) to win a test series in England. Hugely important day for their careers and legacy.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Can’t believe you’re supporting India. Shattered by this I am.

For once I'm supporting England, but only so NZ can increase our lead in the world test rankings.

Of course the clouds are out when we’re batting. **** me for hoping otherwise.

Singapore isn’t playing m8

Always good when the bowlers of both teams keep them interested

 

[Arachnodouche]

Holding extolling Rohit's straight bat and restraint against whipping the ball square off his legs. Rohit whips the next ball square off his legs.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Looks like England will be chasing 250 or so

Lottery conditions, but England still the better side in the game, exceptionally tight bowling. India gave away way too many freebies.

 

[Burgey]

Looked a bit leg sideish to me live. Probably umpires call
