"Is it the first time India is playing 4 spinners after the era of the spin quartet - Bedi, Venky, Prasanna and Chandrasekar?" Yes, Ramashankar, like they played Zaheer, ishant, Yadav and Vinay to reprise Holding, Garner, Roberts and Marshall .

Hehe.

Hehe.

Have to say, Cricinfo has covered the general India-in-decline thing really well, beyond just Sid Monga.

The ball before did him in with the uneven bounce.

Yeah that's poor.

Raging so ****ing hard at Chawla's selection atm

 

[benchmark00]

That had absolutely nothing to do with uneven bounce. Just a ****ing horrible shot. Didn't move off the line and he just played a **** poke.

Late to the party is late.

India have kept it tight this morning. Once the ball becomes a bit more softer it'll be really interesting to see the spinners bowl. I can see Jadeja take a lot of wickets via bowled/lbw

 

[benchmark00]

Yep, The Magpie uses the word poke also. So bad.

It's slow and uneven without turn right now. Will be interesting to see how the spinners go.

Ishant needs to keep bowling short and straightish, imo.

I know there's variable bounce but if England keep their heads, Sharma shouldn't get another wicket if he keeps bowling like this.
