5th Test (The Oval) - 31st July to 4th August

We’ll chase anything up to 400 so we’re well on top

Underestimate the Krishna express at your peril. Lol.

The biggest travesty this series, aside from not picking Kuldeep at all the whole time, has been lack of Khan in the squad. He would have absolutely done better than Nair or Sai.

 

[halba]

He still has some real technical issues but great series from Gill

Looks like a low 40s average type of player overall. Mark waugh type of career maybe

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Nair looks like he's gonna get dismissed any moment now

Woke up late on a Sat morning and see that Akash made 66. How does that happen?

Karun 1* (11)

So Gill won't break Sunny G's record afterall

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Jaiswal's hammy acting up? Seems to suffer some niggle every time he plays a long innings.

We'll take it lol. If he can improve as captain he will have more than done his job.

Indian batters need to play out this spell then batting will become easy as they have a bum 3rd choice bowler and part time spinners

Just be patient

 

[LangleyburyCCPlayer]

Why does Jamie Smith support West Ham?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

That's it Young Shiv. Good knock

 

[Spark]

Had his luck but that might be his most impressive hundred given the circumstances

 

[SkyBlue]

Made the most of his luck. Well deserved 100.

An average of 51 for an opening batsman is almost unheard of these days. Has all the tools to go on and become an all time test match great.

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Antithesis of Chanders no? Not as crabby either.

 

[King Kane]

Another ton for the Indian wonderkid, those dropped chances off him are looking costly now.

I still think Perth was more impressive. Doing that after the first innings duck against a full strength Aussie attack was next level.

That pitch had flattened out completely that day, this one is still doing plenty.

Still enough there if you bowl in the right areas consistently, which England were totally incapable of this morning

Yep and it has swung more today than yesterday (certainly this morning)
