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

[Burgey]

Haha yessssssssss

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

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

yeah clipping maybe just

 

[karan_fromthestands]

Even though ball tracking showed that it missed leg stump, didn't Rahul get a faint nick on that one? Definitely deserved a second look on the snicko.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Water break in the middle of the over. Get on with it.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Kohli is happy he does not have to come out to bat soon

 

[Uppercut]

Woakes by far the best bowler so far. Bit surprising given conditions.

I dunno, looks pretty flat tbh,woakes bowling beautifully though.

guys just look at the score card like we are 71 for 3 atm and it takes away a lot of stress

-26/3

 

[Burgey]

Errrgh junk commentary. He’s not playing across it because of the one bouncer that’s been bowled in 45 minutes, he’s playing across it because he’s got it going both ways late and Rahul is not committing to the line early

 

[Burgey]

Last thing the game needs here is a set batsman retiring hurt. Would be a disaster for india

 

[Uppercut]

This looks to me like England are in trouble.

 

[Adders]

Nicking through the slips should be a legitimate scoring option for Englands opponents. Absolutely ****ing dire.

 

[Burgey]

This looks to me like England are in trouble.

I think you’re right, unless they take three before lunch.

Woakes bowling beautifully though

Nope, conditions are overcast and the ball is moving around a lot, wicket might fall in clusters any time. We are lucky enough to not lose a couple of wickets by now.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Woakes bowling some tough nuts

 

[Flem274*]

Surely they can drop Hameed for a specialist slip?

 

[StephenZA]

Just saw the drop. Can someone explain to me why there was only two slips kinda spread apart? I mean India are still in deficit right?

 

[Arachnodouche]

England really need-ed Archer for the Ashes. One of Stone or Wood has to play at least because the guys on display here are going to be up and down medium on those wickets without help from the weather. I like Robinson but still unproven away from home.

Woakes bowling some tough nuts

And Robinson bowling deliveries that can crack someone's nuts. That sharp seam movement in to the batsmen looks so scary.
