My God England are bowling well. Give them credit when it is due, this is brilliant stuff.

I concur, my mouth is watering, and the curry I'm eating for lunch isn't the reason for that. :p

Give us a break adharcric !! Everyone gets good and bad decisions. Give credit to the bowler. I know it looks really bad with LAx and Jaffer back but trust me had Laxman been cracking fours noone would have mentioned Dravid's dismissal.

Btw - how many are still for 5 bowlers in the next test ?

Dravid's decision looks poor on the replay but in real time it looked closer than that. Its similar to Flintoff's where he looked plumb in real time but on the replay you could see it hit him before he went all the way across the stumps and was hence going down leg.

What did I say, Dravid's dismissal was unlucky. I'm not saying the English bowlers aren't bowling well, they're bowling magnificently. Not sure why Jaffer suddenly decided to waft at that one after resisting all day yesterday. Laxman has been prone to getting out against the incoming ball and it happened again here. Brilliant stuff from Flintoff and Hoggard.

Next match, 5 bowlers yes, but Chawla and VRV/Munaf need to be in there.

Even in real time, it didn't look out to me. Then again, it was a beauty from Hoggard and he got it to cut in just a little too much. Got the wicket still.

Given we go in with 5 bowlers, which 5 would you all want?

For me,

Pathan, Sreesanth, VRV/Munaf, Kumble, Chawla/Bhajji

It's over for Bhajji and Pathan - it's gone to their head and Pathan is like a slow bowler now. Bring in Powar, Chawla...

Pathan has still a role to play, he can become a very usefull allrounder for India.

Bhajji is down the hill though.

Panesar has tremendous control. He's bowling a good length and so far has only dropped one short in all his overs so far. Blackwell dropped 2 short in his first over.
