***Official*** England in India 2016/17

[CricAddict]

Yes, there is still Hameed, Woakes and Rashid too. So, if these 5 batsmen can add another 200 runs, 150-160 target on a turning pitch would be a challenge for India.

Buttler can certainly do a Chandigun.

Tbh we probably would've won that test if we'd had DRS

Not with England's attack IMO. Sri Lanka pulled that off with Herath. I can't see Rashid, Moeen or Batty doing that....

 

[Contra]

too many easy singles.

England have Anderson, Woakes, Broad. If they can get ahead by 150 it'll be a tough game. Vijay seems out of sorts, Parthiv doesn't even count, Rahane is woefully out of form. Pujara is a FTB whose spin prowess is exaggerated. Its Kohli or bust for India the moment it goes above 150.

Joe Root could pull a Michael Clarke tbh

Considering how well the spinners bowled yesterday, we should have begun the day with a spinner from either end.

10/10 Gambhiring

You have caught on fast. I like this

What's Gambhiring?

 

[Contra]

I'm also not sure why they don't have a fielder for that cut/slash. It just gives them an easy single, England's field where they packed the offside and bowled outside off was something India should look at. Every run is crucial here.

Jadeja would still be batting if he hadn't started hitting out. Seriously though, have your lower order been consistently getting these kinds of scores? The one thing you should be able to rely on India for is a long tail.

Anyone watching? Should they have gone for the review on Root there?

 

[Contra]

yesssssss lovely

 

[Burner]

what on earth

 

[Agent TBY]

No. Would've gone to waste on both occasions.

Also, oh boy.

Real smaht Buttler.

 

[cnerd123]

Innings win on the cards IMO

 

[vcs]

Good that Buttler didn't take too big a chunk out of that lead. Tie these two down and we should get another one soon.
