*Official* India tour of Ireland and England 2022

[slippy888]

India bowling lineup for world 20 20 should be Bumrah, Arshdeep, Umran Malik, Bishnoi, then get some part timers to fill in 4 overs.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

It’s the fifth day of the 5th test…players are obviously tired and drained.

It’s been a long series.

Jon and Joe, finish it before lunch

 

[GIMH]

Joe Root man. National treasure

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Joe Root: total legend.

 

[ataraxia]

These are / will be Root and Bairstow's 4th century each in 4 tests. I mean, are they just going to keep going?

 

[subshakerz]

Take a bow. Magnificent hundred.

 

[trundler]

Root's century to match ratio has improved from Laxmanesque to Dravidesque in the last year and a bit. Red inker here should future proof his average somewhat.

 

[Shady Slim]

who would have thought root'd get there before jonny red

great dig this and hope they can carry it home tbqh

 

[trundler]

Conversion problems are over.

 

[BazBall21]

Hutton*.

Fair.

 

[slippy888]

india where better off bowling with a soft battered ball because it logically hard to score for batsman aint it

Roe Joot

[GIMH]

Hutton*.

[GIMH]

Hey are they doing man of the series awards and all that at the end?

 

[Shady Slim]

i tell you what

to touch on what we talked about before play today, not only has playing assertively in this chase sapped the confidence from india's bowling attack, but this also takes on special importance given when india toured here it was their fight, their spirit, their drive, that heck or high water brought them their wins from unwinnable situations - so england haven't just flipped the script but they've done so on a team whose recent biggest wins turned on their unmatched fight

 

[trundler]

Idiot

 

[subshakerz]

Terrific batting, but no way should a score of 378 against this Indian attack be this easy. Indian bowling has been shockingly loose by their standards. Bumrah and Shami are normally tight but each are going at 4 plus an over.
