***Official*** India in England 2014

[Cabinet96]

Last time Cook caught an Indian batsman at silly point he scored 294.

 

[BeeGee]

Bit of a freak dismissal, that one.

 

[King Pietersen]

Hope Dhoni doesn't last long. Hate watching him bat.

 

[ankitj]

Just tuned in. Man, doesn't test cricket feel tranquil after watching a few football matches!

 

[Shri]

Jaddu triple ton coming up. with the ball

 

[Singh Is King]

Show us 1 post where anyone has said that or alluded to it??

Mate this is rubbish end of story. And if we do somehow bowl India out before day 3 it will be rubbish when you bowl on it too.

Day 3? loll

 

[Teja.]

Sensational hundred by Vijay. So much pressure of the occasion. So important. What a champ.

 

[smash84]

Sees off the new ball really well mostly even if he doesn't score runs at times. Does his job. Will never be world class but is just a good fit to the side atm. Someone better shoul come along ideally and push him out but until then, he has earned his spot.

tl;dr: #BetterThanAlviroPetersen

Fair enough

 

[Teja.]

James Anderson bowling to Mahendra Singh Dhoni at Trent Bridge is a scary as **** proposition.

 

[BeeGee]

Impressive from Vijay. Most impressive.

 

[Shri]

James Anderson bowling to Mahendra Singh Dhoni at Trent Bridge is a scary as **** proposition.

Not if he says "**** it" and successfully smashes him around ODI style.

 

[Teja.]

Say what you want about Dhoni being an ugly bat but shots like that are always amazing.

 

[King Pietersen]

Eugh, Dhoni's drives are so ****ing ugly.

 

[Singh Is King]

Eugh, Dhoni's drives are so ****ing ugly.

Plays it so uniquely with the bottom hand. Goes against the textbooks

 

[smash84]

Dhoni doing the right thing by playing it as an idi

 

[flibbertyjibber]

God, this pitch is dire. Nothing at all in it for the bowlers.

 

[Contra]

England's batting looks massive, even if some of their players are not in form, minimum 400 needed to even have a reasonable chance in this test match. Critical 9 overs coming up.

 

[Teja.]

Have to survive this nine and I'll be be happy with India's day if we do so.

 

[Singh Is King]

Looks like I will be watching India bat tomorrow when i go trent bridge. Then hopefully watch them again when I go day after (being very opstimistic lol). Last time I went to a test I saw England make 700ffs

 

[Contra]

This match is also an excellent opportunity for Jadeja to make it count as a batsmen, not too many demons in the pitch. Im also interested to see how Bhuvi goes as a bat, dude has reasonable technique for a tailender.
