Jimmy is so good it's unreal. He almost always had by far the best economy of our bowlers whilst also being our most threatening bowler too.

Too good from Jimmy. Quality bowling effort, they didn't even have to take all their catches and gave us a few looseners too.

Not a good sign for the rest of the Tests. Probably going to end up 5-0 unless we get some rain or some really flat and dry pitches.

Pretty disappointing given this was supposed to be the generation of batsmen who were actually good overseas. But Rahane and Pujara are desperately out of form (and luck) while Vijay is no longer who he once was. Rahul has shown to not be good enough technically. And we don't really have much promise in the reserves.

Oh well.

Guy's a machine. Seems to be getting even better as time goes by. Gillespie was probably long retired by his age.
Pretty sure that whole Gillespie > Anderson thing was just a windup that went on for too long. Surely no one actually believes it.

The missed opportunity in the first Test is really starting to hurt now. We just had to find a way to win that game.

Several people did predict we'd get rekt in England when that happened tbf. I can't remember who but I remember liking the posts.
I did make this post when Lakmal was wrecking us.

Mediocre trundlers picking up bags of wickets, ball swinging around, Kohli doing ****all with the bat, delays due to rubbish weather... This is like a test in England ffs.
Prophetic

Not the best match for kuldeep to come in for nostrils is it ? We really needed bhuvi here. Would have still had a chance with him.
