*Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

[_00_deathscar]

Need a quick wicket or four.

One wicket will probably bring four so there's that...

 

[Molehill]

Rohit has had somewhat of a charmed life - dropped, an lbw overturned, an lbw that would've been out had it been reviewed, now he's skyed one into no man's land....

Holy **** I want his bat

England not getting an awful lot of luck at the mo - god knows how that flies for 6 off this pitch.

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

Hmm menacing at one end, marshmallows at the other

 

[OverratedSanity]

He's had quite a bit of good fortune, but this is a big innings for Rohit. First time he's looked like his old self in a while.

A lot of opposition fans probably say the same thing watching Ben Duckett

 

[RightArmMystery]

Wow, what an awful shot.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Great job Rohit.

 

[Molehill]

Rohit's luck ran out, fell well and truly into the trap.

 

[Spark]

Benefit of getting those wickets up front; England have looked thoroughly pedestrian until that wicket for quite a long time but they're still actually in a decent position here.

I remember Rohit made an absolutely vital hundred in the 2nd or 3rd test last time we were here. Lucky or otherwise, he looks like he's done it again here. This reminds me a bit a test in SL about 15 years ago when England (mainly Hoggard iirc) took 3 early wickets and then Sangakarra and Jayawardene added about 500. I don't think we won that one, either.

EDIT
I wish I'd posted that about three hours ago, but I'll take it.

Brushing my teeth did the trick

@Aidan11 you fancy a spell in the kitchen?

 

[OverratedSanity]

That shot is unforgivable in all situations except declaration batting. It's exposed the soft lower middle order now. Ridiculous.

Indeed. Rohit almost played it like he thought India were 500-3. Absolutely dreadful.

Did sarfaraz not pick that ball from rehan? Looked like he thought it would come back in, not go away.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Sarfaraz

Hope this is just nerves, because that's a pretty bad first few balls.

 

[Nintendo]

Sarfaraz has an ass on him jeez. Blud could be the next timmy thicc if he wasn't a cricketer.

 

[OverratedSanity]

I'm still kinda in shock at that shot from Rohit. Embarrassing even by his standards.
