How did you guess, he has shut up about dropping Anderson or Broad this week. Will probably start up again if India win.

Its an interesting one, you could almost argue this is somewhat of a paradox. I feel the general consensus is the middling test match batsmen of today are, on average, of a lower quality than is previous eras, though some feel the top echelon batsmen of today are of comparable ability to their predecessors.

Anderson nailed Kohli 4 years ago because he was quicker. He has still got the skill but I think his body is going quickly. Will still pick up 2-3 wickets every innings with his tactics, setups and experience but he isn't going to blow teams away like he used to. has earned the right to call time on his own career tbh.
I mean, he literally had Kohli dropped on 20 and beat the bat/found the edge another 4 times in first dig.
He also bowled like 11 overs in a row.

May the best team win this. Hope we have a controversy free ending and it a great finish to a brilliant test. Oh and be done for 12.40 so I can go to match in peace and not worry about it.

Not once in the second innings. Kohli was still figuring things out in the 1st dig imo.

8.4 Anderson to Kohli, no run, beats him this time! That's a good one from Anderson, gets it closer to off stump this time, Kohli has to play and it straightens off the seam
18.1 Anderson to Kohli, no run, chases and is beaten. Length ball wide outside off, reaches a long way out

How did you see Anderson bowling in the first innings and think "his body is going quickly"
Shri
Mr. Glass
Lol, you can't see that he is slower than he was 4 years ago? Also, isn't he coming off a shoulder injury? Its not just the first innings, it is the lead up to it among other things.

This is going to be a quick anti-climactic finish isn't it?
