***Official*** England in India

..and a wise man said

"I am not Racist, I just hate everybody"

The racism thing was a joke between me and Pratyush. It wasn't really anything to do with you, it relates to something else entirely.

And another maiden. I mean we've only got Flintoff, Geraint, Blackwell who are really stodgy batsmen to come...

..and my post was too..and thanx for bringing me in the limelight

And besides all the "India Dropped catches and umpiring decisions etc", England have played very well against the odds

 

[Langeveldt]

Has draw all over it this match, there is no way England will declare tonight, just to be on the safe side against this Indian batting lineup

Collingwood was plumb LBW to Kumble.

Funny how Dar can't keep his finger down when an English seamer is bowling and an Indian gets an inside edge half way down the track. to a ball going down

Don't you start, too.

Strange time just now. Cook's done superbly in his first test (statistically the best debut since Strauss I guess), but the way he's playing now is straight out of the Boycott/Kallis book of one-eyed selfishness.

That said I can't describe how happy I am to be watching England over 300 runs to the good in India waiting on the declaration! I personally think the injuries/absences have worked in our favour (with the exception of Gilo for Blackwell, obv). If Jones had been fit Hoggy would probably have missed out & Colly would've been favourite to be omitted for MPV.

Great stuff.

This partnership isn't even scoring at 3 an over yet. England are just giving overs away tomorrow which is just unforgiveable.

You'd make a good Emo kid.

 

[adharcric]

oh my, even dravid drops one .. forgettable day for the indians

 

[luckyeddie]

Vow, bit of spice and you cry "ban me"

Do you speak for everyone BTW? D/N - there are posts made ridiculing the opposition and you take me as a brown fella coz I take Indian side and you cry "wolf"

I am sorry but if people like you exists on this board and then you must surely be one of the "elite aussie crowds"

 

[Tom Halsey]

Dropped again!

Dar (A Pakistani) was a bad appointment for a match which let's face it, basically involves his home nation (England) against the old enemy (India)

Yeah I'm sure his one aim in this game was to sabotage India's chances of winning, don't think much of people do you?

Great stuff.

Since the message came out with Shah, Cook has been completely unselfish. Some very ugly heaves, coming down the pitch, and being dropped. He obviously has been told that he's got tonight ton get his ton and is desperate to do so.

Three overs, two runs.

 

[aussie]

4 more for a century foor Cook, has been a bit slow but has been a superb debut for him.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Tbh I don't blame Cook for playing this way on 98... now onto 99.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Cookie!

Great shot to bring up the ton tho. Well played young fella.
