*Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

[honestbharani]

Do you think Root would have bowled 50 odd overs in the first test if they had taken another spinner and gone with 5 bowlers?

They went with Root as their 5th bowler, they made it pretty obvious all through the run up to the series.

The streets want Fat Bradman with KL out but knowing India they will play fking Padikal instead

KL Rahul ruled out of third Test against England; Devdutt Padikkal called up

Rahul's absence further complicates matters for India, who also didn't pick Shreyas Iyer for the remaining three Tests

Reham Ahmed now has visa issues in re-entry to India.

The England camp are confident it can be sorted out.

India should deport the England side just because they can IMO.

Having read the reason why, pretty stupid by the ECB.

Has a single entry visa and they went on their jollies in the middle of a series.

this one isnt on them since they only got a single entry visa for Rehan

he has a 2 day emergency visa issued anyway for now

 

[Shri]

has anyone been arrested before in the middle of a test match

 

[howitzer]

has anyone been arrested before in the middle of a test match

That would be the icing on the cake of this strange as **** tour.

 

[Aidan11]

Imagine being arrested while batting in the middle.

What would appear on the scorecard?

Retired out?

 

[Niall]

What would England do in response?

Ban Indians from playing the blast?

 

[Aidan11]

Retired out?

Or caught red handed.

The 5th bowler is almost always underused. Also, one reason I believe why there are no part timers in Indian squad is due to the 5 bowler policy. People like Jaiswal will be bowling couple of overs here and there to give breaks to the main bowlers and slowly gaining confidence to bowl at international level if not for this policy.

Why have a part timer when an actual bowling option can get wickets and keep runs down while giving a break to the other bowlers, depending on the game plan? Will never get this fascination with making the team weaker for no reason.

You haven't understood the premise and hence not getting the fascination.

I mean what is there to understand about generally worse bowling options getting a few more overs?

has anyone been arrested before in the middle of a test match

Joe Root gets to 95* and the federal police show up out in the middle to deport him.

They have to bowl to him and get him out to deport him.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Calling the cops on the next batsman in so they get timed out because they're in the middle of an interview

It is a decision between taking 5 bowlers or 7 batsmen. Taking 7 batsmen and getting a part timer out of those batsmen bowling a few overs strengthens the batting over taking 5 bowlers.
