If I was more of a stinker I'd make sure it was the last post on the page.

A bit? England massive underdogs right now.
you have to imagine as a neutral. Five wickets in hand witb a few people who can bat and needing 50. Any team would get there MOST times. Even though it seems impossible when it’s your team.

Been a fun series, competed far more than we ever should have given our attack but looks like we are coming up short unless a miracle happens. Found a few players though for the future.

eh, he's being extremely proactive with fields but these two are playing it sensibly so far. Maybe can bring Anderson on.

He's been consistently racist as a BBC employee and sacked people for less.

Yeah honestly England have been right in it and have done better than I had expected prior to the start.
Except that chasing in India is probably the hardest task in cricket -

Yes, chases as a whole, but what do the numbers look like with 50 runs to go and 5 wickets left when it’s the home team chasing?Except that chasing in India is probably the hardest task in cricket -

Because those are the odds we are talking about, not the odds at the start of the chase (which are obviously different).
Can't check stats like that on Cricinfo but in current scenario it's relatively easy. Especially since it's the home team.

Asleep and what a surprise I wake up with the job all but done
Even if we have made it more uncomfortable than it might have been.

They've bowled too many on the pads to these two to work for easy singles in this session. Taken some of the pressure off.

Great from these two. Very calmly got us close to the finish.
I was worried because it's an inexperienced (batting)team. Conversely the Eng spinners are even more raw, so that's helped quite a bit.

Like every day at this point of the days play.
We had to get into the tail before lunch.
