*Official* Fourth Test at The Oval

[Spark]

England getting a bit lazy here.

 

[Uppercut]

best bowler you mean?
or best team?

Best team/best attack.

 

[centurymaker]

if i didn't see a few articles written on dravid tomorrow morning, i'd be annoyed.

 

[Uppercut]

Credit where it's due, India have shown a lot more fight today.

Mishra playing sensibly in support to Dravid and, as the square drive off Bresnan suggests, not actually a total mug.

This has actually happened in every Indian innings this series once the ball's got old.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

So Mishra showing he is a better bat than he is bowler.

 

[GIMH]

Yeah, all their scores have been fairly similar actually. Assuming it goes another 17 overs, it won't go much further, IMO

This has actually happened in every Indian innings this series once the ball's got old.

This is a different kind of innings than Kumar and Dhoni slogging a few runs. It at least suggests some kind of permanence.

Ravi on. Interesting.

Best team/best attack.

performing against the best attacks/best teams counts a lot more than performing against WI

it's what sets you apart from the rest.
like tendulkar in SA, dravid in England.

 

[GIMH]

Good over this.

 

[Burgey]

Don't care how many runs Bell, KP, Cook et al have made this series, Dravid is the best batsman in either side. He's been a one man army.

 

[Contra]

lol Mishra =)

 

[Daemon]

Wow Mishra , if that went wrong Dravid would strangle him

 

[centurymaker]

Swann has disappointed.
england have lacked the intensity today like india on this whole tour.

 

[Daemon]

Don't care how many runs Bell, KP, Cook et al have made this series, Dravid is the best batsman in either side. He's been a one man army.

He's been as good as those mentioned imo. It's easy to forget that his runs have been against bowling that is several leagues above the Indian attack.

 

[Contra]

He's using Viru's bat isn't he? No wonder..

anyway despite MS's wicket you'd still take this. 1 wicket for about 100 runs in this session.

 

[Daemon]

Should enjoy this now before the new ball is taken and we're bowled out for 250 odd

 

[nsniks]

Well played Dravid, well played!!!!!!

Is this the first full session we have batted in whole series where we have lost only wicket??

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Been India's best session since the 2nd session on day 2 of the 2nd test. Well done Dravid and Mishra.

 

[Howe_zat]

Well below par from England that. Disappointing.

Draw's back to about 50/50 now.

This is to take nothing away from Dravid, who's been exceptional. Mishra getting runs is grating though.

 

[Jayzamann]

How bad was the bingle that got Gambhir his concussion? I know it's no laughing matter, but it varies greatly as to how it affects people and for how long.
