[Viscount Tom]

Mark Wood on Southgate’s watchlist as we speak

Nah that dopey git will still pick Henderson.

 

[Gnske]

I guess India are doctoring their zing bails too, they fall too easy

 

[Aidan11]

They're gonna get them in singles. Tighten the field.

 

[mackembhoy]

Why is the field so deep still.

They've just been able to easily whittle this down

 

[CarlsbergXpress]

Well the last half an hour has been some crazy **** to watch. Just finish it for goodness sake.

 

[Spark]

I keep saying it but I cannot believe this field. Do we really think Bumrah and Siraj are about to slash Mark Wood through backward point for four???

 

[Socerer 01]

why no yorker

 

[morgieb]

This is dumb cricket.

 

[Aidan11]

no but we are expecting bumrah to pull wood through point for 4

Near 200 run lead. Should've been chasing 100 at most. The two drops were what lost the game.

And how our heads drop at the first sign of attack. This happened in that 5th test we played a year later too. And in RSA so it has now basically happened under 4 different captains across home and away.

Burgey used the word "privileged" probably based on how he himself lives his life, but I think it is true to an extent that a lot of these Indian players dont end up in the toil of domestic cricket after they have made it to the Indian team. Its an underrated aspect, but esp. at home, these guys have no idea what it is to fight hard and bowl tight when the batting is on top, coz it happens so very infrequently. When batsmen attack, they think they are gonna get out by themselves but as batsmen get themselves in and set, they are already on 40 off 50 or whatever and are now used to the pace, bounce and spin on the wicket. They are just comfortable and these guys have no idea what to do next. Bowling dry has just gone out of the window for this Indian bowling line up since Virat quit the captaincy. Not they were great at it before but I feel the previous management, almost to a fault, wanted to cut down opponents' free scoring first before trying to go for wickets with all sorts of variations.

 

[Gnske]

Stokes going to appear at the post-match presser with a new leather jacket

 

[Daemon]

Ash not trusting Bumrah looks like a real blunder now

 

[CarlsbergXpress]

 

[Ashes81]

YES - WHAT A WIN

 

[Viscount Tom]

[Aidan11]
