Yeah I fear a big knock because England often get heavily punished for dropped catches. I am trying a bit of reverse psychology in the hope of it working

Whatever it takes!!!
Well, this side is selected better than the last one but somehow this side is even more inexperienced, esp. the batting. As a rule, I dont mind batsmen nicking off early now and then, it happens to all batsmen and the 9:30 starts are usually seamer/pacer friendly at least for the first half hour to 45 mins. Pattidar's shot and the way he seems to bat against spin is a tad concerning for me, as he doesn't seem to have any obvious weakness yet keeps getting out. Its too early to write off anything but we are up against it this game with this batting line up and bowling line up in these conditions, against this England side. I am worried our bowling will wilt 
Again, the only hope is a Bazball collapse.

Patidar goes too hard at spin I think.Well, this side is selected better than the last one but somehow this side is even more inexperienced, esp. the batting.

Brother it makes perfect sense to promote Jadeja because India can keep Right hand/Left Hand combination.
Also this is his home ground, this is where he scored triple tons in FC cricket..He might have more runs scored here than entire Indian team combined ..
For India he has only been dismissed once at Rajkot ..Averages 144 with the bat , 27 with the ball.
He will get there by last session tomorrow..

England need lunch to regroup
Just a one bad decision that was given out lbw with bat involved. But that is what DRS is there for.

Yeah. As I was saying earlier picking 6 bowlers will be perfectly fine given many of our bowlers bat better than batsmen we have in our middle order.

Wasn't a Hartley lbw given not out when it was three reds?
Exactly. And you have added luxury of so many bowling options.
No it was umpires call .. just clipping top of leg

Axar over any of these batsmen would be fine but its not a long term solution. And if you are gonna pick an AR for his batting, I would still go with Washy before Axar.

Sundar has the talent to actually be picked for his batting long term IMO. Axar doesn't really - he's a bowling allrounder in good batting form.

Should have been out though, robbed!
