*Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

[ataraxia]

The perfect over: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6.

If England bowl their 90 overs and then just walk off, is there anything wrong in that? Not sure it does them any favours to be bowling more tonight. Better to come back tomorrow with a fresh Anderson.

Maybe Stokes is trying for one more late wicket, preferably of a tired Jaiswal

That last shot suggested it wasn't likely to happen. More chance of getting him when he has to start again.

Looks like Jaiswal himself is holding things up anyway.

Penny for Cheteshwar Pujara's thoughts. Arguably time to move on yes, but several tough SENA tests to go with some absolute bunsens in his dying days.

And when he finally gets dropped, they then go and play two tests in WI and two tests at home to England; each of the four on completely ideal surfaces for him against unglamorous spin attacks.

 

[RightArmMystery]

Wow, what an awful shot that is

 

[Daemon]

Rehan's looked the best of all the spinners today. Dunno why he didn't bowl earlier.

 

[OverratedSanity]

This team deserves to lose this series for the amount of soft dismissals to crap balls.

Seriously

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Bharat will dig in though and make a courageous 17 of 49 balls.

Not bad.

 

[Molehill]

Haha, a wicket in the 91st over of the day. I wonder when the last time England achieved that (not including extra half hours)?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Fair play Jaiswal that's a top knock today. Looks like one bat they have found for home series, just need to find out how he does away on bouncier tracks.

Good day for England getting 6 wickets and the 2 kids have been superb. Sneak another and it is clearly our day.

 

[Molehill]

Surprised Ashwin didn't ask for a nightwatchman....

 

[GIMH]

Should be looking to get them under 400 tomorrow now. Decent day really

Told you so....

 

[OverratedSanity]

Pant to bharat has been such a tragic downgrade

 

[BazBall21]

All things considered, England's day.

Jaiswal's day too though. Well played lad.

 

[Daemon]

Seriously

but stop gambhiring OS its so annoying!!1!1!!

Pant to bharat has been such a tragic downgrade

The thought of Pant playing instead sends shivers down the spine. Bloke is terrifying.

 

[Spark]

Jaiswal aside I think these last three innings have put the lie to the idea that this modern generation of Indian bats know how to bat time @Starfighter

336-6 @SillyCowCorner1

 

[Molehill]

Decent day of cricket - feels like India slightly ahead with runs on the board and the chance that it will start doing a lot more later in the match. But intriguingly poised and definitely still hope that if England bat well they could create a first innings lead.

Great knock by Jaiswal. Seemed untroubled by the spinners, only Anderson caused any issue and he was superb.
