game

 

[grecian]

i want him to reach 200 wickets at least so we have a clear winner for worst bowler to hit 200 wickets

I find this so weird as the biggest fan of Moeen for years, and I often think, oh can't be arsed to finish this.....

 

[cnerd123]

okay so now maybe we've got a 5% chance at winning

Shardulkaarrrrrr what a ****ing man

 

[Aritro]

Genuinely unsure what was better; Bumrah's inswinging yorkers or that jaffa from Thakur. It takes a special delivery to unseat Root.

 

[wpdavid]

And there we go. Five wickets in the session and counting. All over before tea?

By thakur standards that was pretty normal tbf

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Jeepers, I think we might be in a spot of bother here.

[mr_mister]

What gave it away

fair, but why?

 

[mr_mister]

hey if it works don't knock it

i see

 

[honestbharani]

Thakur wins it.

Called it a while ago tbh.. earlier in the game and even yesterday.

 

[Spikey]

I think Joe Root was right to attempt to guide one down to third man when his team needs a million runs in 40 overs

 

[silentstriker]

Hope @silentstriker realises now why some of us wanted lead of 380 . 20 more runs would have allowed India to be constantly attacking today. Now there would be mixture of defensive + attacking field today.
Jadeja is the key player today.

No. I wanted three trillion but this is not how Test cricket works. There’s a reason that the number of successful run chases of 350 occur on average basically once or twice a decade.

 

[Jack1]

What is Root doing? You are batting for a draw mate..

 

[Teja.]

Lord Thakur’s career has to be a work.

 

[honestbharani]

Lord of the Root(s)

 

[duffer]

Trying to get runs at third man first ball of the new ball was a major ****-up.

 

[andruid]

Who will deliver Angleterre now?
