This over from Root is exactly what England should've started off with. Slightly short, flat, trying to skid it into the pads or hope it keeps low.

Hartley can't control the new ball at all. His lengths aren't right too. This is legitimately one of those odd pitches where you'd much rather bowl a bit short as a spinner, not just because of those grubbers but there's random deliveries that just skid on and can trap the batsman on the crease.
I know he's inexperienced but he really does bowl way too many full tosses for a finger spinner.

Bah, disappointing. Am sure we will show some fight but India clearly strong favourites now
It's like a 65-35 game imo, that start from India definitely tilted things a bit for now. Anderson and Bashir should start tomorrow, they've got the best shot of getting an early breakthrough imo.

Good test match but far from over considering how brittle this India lineup is
