*Official* India Tour of England 2018

Hardik's not going to die wondering. Could be in for some fun.

Lovely situation for him with no pressure whatsoever. His side already miles ahead, tired bowlers, and still an easy paced track.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Hardik v Rashid should be fun

 

[Borges]

Looks like Kohli has no intention of declaring today. Sad.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Two genuinely ATG comedy drops by Jennings this test.

 

[vcs]

This situation is tailor made for Pandya, really. A collective batting effort makes such a huge difference. Wish the openers and Rahane hadn't **** the bed so spectacularly in the first two games.

 

[Borges]

Ah, good! Adil Rashid picks up his second wicket; may help to keep the pretender Moeen Ali at bay.

 

[vcs]

Hardik's kind of a hack, but he is the type of "X-factor player" who could push a solid side to a very good one. Basically, we need to give him a platform.

 

[Borges]

Well, this Hardik Pandya is thoroughly enjoying this test match.

And three for Rashid now! Well bowled, under pressure.

 

[Arachnodouche]

I think they're trying to get Rashid his 5-fer

 

[Borges]

Stupid declaration; if they were going to declare today, they should have declared half an hour ago.

 

[vcs]

Think he's timed that pretty well. A wicket or two now!

 

[wpdavid]

Looks like Kohli has other plans for Wednesday.

 

[Pratters]

Two wickets please.

 

[vcs]

Not one of Kohli's prettier knocks that, judging by the highlights. Not even close to the Edgbaston ton in terms of quality.

 

[CasMcG24]

I'm likening India to a man loading a shotgun closing the shed door while a doe eyed dog (England) looks up and knows it's dignity is in question...

 

[Borges]

Now that Pandya has told Holding to stuff it, and Kohli has told hordes on Cricketweb to stuff it, the time is now ripe for Cook to follow suit.
Couldn't have asked for a better occasion to silence his critics.

 

[vcs]

Jeez Jennings makes Cook look like Gower, aesthetically. Don't think I've watched an uglier batsman.

 

[TestMatch]

250 runs a day and England has this. Easy win.

 

[CasMcG24]

Will Cook get into double figures... ?

 

[Pratters]

Will England get 350
