*Official* India Tour of England 2018

Man why can't he be convinced to reverse hia decision for a couple of years at least ? Even this present version of him is valuable, more than the other options that are his 'competition'

 

[artvandalay]

The unfortunate thing with Jennings is he's not even crap and pretty to watch like, say, Vince. He's dire, and makes your eyes bleed.

Aesthetics alone should earn Bell a spot in the XI whether or not he makes runs.

It's true what Nassar brought up earlier though. Root really does play quite loose after getting to 50. Cook just looks impossible to get out

If Root doesn't manage to get to his ton here with India going through the motions and Hanuma Vihari bowling, he may as well give up trying to overcome his conversion issues. It's there on a silver platter for him.

Well, our bowlers seem to have finally run out of gas.

Is it the natural consequence of a dead match and accumulated physical/mental fatigue of a long series, or is having Pandya essential to keeping them fresh in both innings?

 

[Borges]

It's also the consequence of the unusual sight of two batsmen playing well.

Pandya barely bowled in the previous game tbh. They've checked out and I don't even blame them.

Yeah, but Kohli is bowling Vihari and an ineffective Jadeja over the fast bowlers. That tells me that either he's given up and is waiting for the declaration, or they have nothing left in the tank.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Personally I'd have played Pandya the entire series. He was the least of our worries afaic. He showed a bit of application down the order and produced one superb match winning spell. Far exceeded my expectations.

Our fielding is better than India's and England's currently, **** you.

How Pakistan became a world-class fielding side - ESPNcricinfo

I am still technically right even if that were true, ****.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Haha well played. Great way to bow out.

 

[Groundking]

Cooky

 

[andmark]

What an incredible cricketer. Magnificent moment.

 

[ImpatientLime]

what a moment

up there with nasser's century at lords v new zealand. although not quite as dramatic

 

[MW1304]

Absolute ****ing legend. What a man and what a way to go out.

Now keep bumping that average up and finish not out please.

 

[vcs]

India are always gracious on these occasions. Kallis also got a hundred when he retired against us. India are the best team to debut and retire against, basically.

Well done to Cook.

Yes, that was quite a knock. Maybe it's an Essex thing.

Very well played sir.

 

[Biryani Pillow]

BUZZAS!!!!!!!!!!

Never heard an ovation like that at a Test match.

I think I have something in my eye.

fantastic moment.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Not much incentive to watch this now. Root falling short again would be some nice comedy.

 

[Adders]

Get the **** in there!!!!!!!!°
