Hartley will be a slaphead like Edmonds by the time he is 30.
Is Root Pat Pocock?

Younger readers will take the new Panesar and Swann. As would I, actually.

Least the kids have shut up with India struggling.

Whatever it takes!!!
Ah crap.. hope we have a Gabba style fightback in us. 
Pattidar has been the most disappointing here. Him along with Jaiswal and Sarfraz are the ones I would have backed about playing well against spin. And I also think this is a pitch for Axar but Kuldeep went so well last game, it just meant we could not get him out of the side.

Well with age and his fitness record then he will struggle. Sad but that's life.

why is it that Hartley and Bashir, even Ahmed feel more threatening than Leach, Parkinson and past spinners, is this just because we're in India and when we're back at Lords they will be struggling to get people out again, or are they slightly more threatening genuinely?

a few days with the national coaching setup is all you need to turn to **** when facing spin, idk how Jaiswal has been immune to it

We are in India, even Jadeja and Ashwin look ordinary at times in England as the tracks don't do much.

It is annoying though coz I feel Rohit's captaincy again left a lot to be desired on the field. He was just almost gng by rote - leftie batting, keep Ashwin on, rightie comes in, get Jaddu here, keep a seamer on one end, forget about Kuldeep. I am not sure England made much more than a par score here and honestly I think we should be getting 350 on this track even with the cracks getting wider as its still really slow and low and its not uneven in bounce or pace. But we had a genuine chance to keep them to 250 and we let it go coz of **** captaincy.

Stokes' captaincy, and especially his man management, may have something to do with that. And this Indian line-up is less experienced than the guys we faced last time.
