4th Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) - 23rd to 27th of July

[Third_Man]

Proves what the Old Trafford pitches are like. All credit to India from 0/2 is a big turnaround but that might well have been a different story on a different ground. Just imagine playing the majority of your 4 day first class matches on a ground where even Bazball can't get a result in 5 days.

It's been a great test series to watch as a neutral with both teams landing some blows with some great performances from some great players.

Ideally it would be going to a decider in the 5th test with both teams a chance of winning the series, only England can but India can still draw it.

 

[Kirkut]

Stokes looks so pissed, haha

 

[centurymaker]

Whatever happens in the final Test, still no series win in England for India since 2007.

Haha . Your team hasn't beaten India even at home yet. This is the fourth consecutive series vs India and as of yet you are winless. Win the series first, then open your mouth.

When was the last time you actually won a series vs India or Australia (home or away)? Yeah it's been a bloody long time.

Honestly a rough match for both Kamboj and Dawson to try and prove they belong at Test level. Hopefully they both get chances in more balanced conditions to show what they can offer.

Bit pathetic of Stokes to pretend to be shocked that the offer to shake hands was refused. Not sure what he was expecting with both nearing tons.

 

[Johan]

Haha ****ing sore loser appearing out of a rat hole. Your team hasn't beaten India even at home yet. It's been four consecutive series... You are winless! (as of yet) Win something first, then open your ****ing mouth.

Once again giving credence to my claim that you're the most pathetic poster on this forum, clearly.

 

[Gob]

lol at England going up against India players for wanting to go on and make tons though

This is exactly why everyone non English get great pleasure when Bazball crash and burn. Just stop talking

And a country of one and a half billion people where cricket is the number one sport can’t beat a country of 70 million where cricket is the number 3 sport.

He probably assumed that the Indians have moved on from the stereotype of playing for records.

"Do you want to get a hundred against Harry Brook?" – Stokes to Jadeja

What a ****ing disgrace

Why wasn't Stokes bowling? Weak

Bro no one wants to shake hands with Ben

The classless behavior showed towards Jadeja and Sundar sometimes makes me want to root for Australia, to be honest. Stokes may be great, but is no Pat Cummins

Well Pat likes to save the planet. Ben likes to beat people up after 10 pm. What were you expecting?

Pat Cummins Australia is very supportable. Play proper cricket and aren’t whiny or sanctimonious.

Not just Old Trafford though. I feel like we have had games exactly like this every week in the county game. Makes England's total inability to do it at Edgbaston more frustrating.

England quite lucky to escape with a draw actually if you think about it. In a timeless Test India would just keep piling on the runs and England would have to bat last on a crumbling day 47 wicket.

 

[King Kane]

The time to shake hands is when the test series is over, there is another test battle to go, you don't shake hands and be friends before the war is over.

Those kiwi genes working perfectly. Act like goody two shoes when things are going you way and become a knobhead when they don't.
