Here I am posting with the best of intentions, and you turn up to put the 'bully' in flat track bully.


Oh, and if we're only looking at day 4, then you were bowled out for 190. The other 2 were on Day 3 when you cheated India out of at least an over's cricket.

Disagree.


It's an insight to the darkness that permeates the heart of English cricket.

It's like a magician's sleight of hand - watch me dazzle you and save cricket with my right hand, while the hand you're not watching is busy butchering the spirit of cricket and making sure children are having nightmares when they go to sleep at night.

Shame on you all.

My favourite fictional characters are all villains, safe to say, we love evil.

Five of the top Seven getting out the way they did yesterday really riled me. The lack of match awareness was galling. I still think India are considerable favourites to take down this score, despite the 3 top order wickets gone. With Rahul, Pant, Jadu, Sundar and NKR, that should be enough batting resource. Realistically, England have to take down two of the main three in the first 30-45 minutes or India get home reasonably well. Bit of overnight rain in London, but not too much from what I can tell.

Prepare for Pain

India Fans are not going to enjoy today. England are bowling very well and this will continue. Pant will not last long he won't want to fancy this attack on day 5 on a lively pitch

2-1 England. But India have themselves to blame in all tests LOL

It’s cute how burgey takes breaks from glazing Smith (well compiled 5 from him btw) in the other thread to come in here and make snide remarks about a game where 3 ATGs are in action. Meanwhile across the North Alantic a Windies side with club level batsman has had The Cheats regularly soiling their undies over the last few weeks while staring down the barrel of a 3-0 moral whitewash.

Haven’t once felt as though the current Windies series was in doubt. Been entertaining though.

And who are your three all timers? Bumrah I accept. Pant? Arguably. That sees it out though. And they’ve been playing on featherbeds. Been a dirge up to now

i am not scared of a man whose test bowling average is 31 and whose most notable achievements have come as a Hobart Hurricane
until he shows it at test level, he is a potential merchant. i'm not saying he can't put it together at test level, just, until he does, he hasn't shown it yet. and there are many reasons for that not all of which are his fault of course let me be clear

I think we all agree that most of the reasons are Joe Root's fault.

In hearing on socials that India pulled the "let a specialist keep while Pant rests but Pant still bats" trick again? Did that actually happen?

Not just that, but they had a keeper who could stand up to the stumps to two of the fast bowlers in order to keep the batsmen in their crease. It undoubtedly contributed to the Crawley wicket (he'd have probably got out soon anyway tbf).

I'd also add that Smith's dismissal was one of a tired keeper who'd been out in the heat for a long period. That's why I'm fully expecting Pant to make a match winning knock today.

The whole keeper/sub thing needs looking at, especially when India had an alternative keeper (Rahul) in their side. One team is effectively playing with 12 players here.
