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

[LangleyburyCCPlayer]

Decent catch, just as well because Overton has contributed **** all with the ball

A bowling version of Crawley!!That doesn't work for me I'm afraid.

tongue is some improved discipline away from being a proper test bowler.

crawley could play until he's 100 and he will never remotely resemble a half competent test batsman.

 

[slowfinger]

come on ENGLAND

i used to face him in the nets at junior age and he was much the same and I was number 10 batsman

Nice, that's pretty cool. What sort of age groups were you facing him?

 

[Molehill]

You just know that Baz and Stokes will be delighted with Tongue, if anyone is willing to put up with the shite to get the magic balls, it’s them

If he gets to bowl more regularly, you'd hope his accuracy would improve. Can't deny he hasn't got something about him though, especially when there's a little bit of assistance.

Literally the second coming of Steven Finn. Trash mixed in with unplayable stuff.

That is an absolute jaffer. Deep was nowhere near it

 

[centurymaker]

Not a bad time to be bowling. At least India gets to bowl when the ball is still seaming around.

And follows it up with another down the leg side that Smith had no hope with!

 

[SkyBlue]

Extras joint 2nd highest top scorer of the innings

 

[Molehill]

Atkinson is the one that deserves the fivefer here, hope he gets it before Tongue flukes another.

Absolutely, he's been superb, carried this attack.

 

[trundler]

Random thought: should Dharmasena lose part of his match fee for signalling inside edge before England had reviewed yesterday? Clearly a breach of proper conduct

 

[ImpatientLime]

this has been exceptional stuff from these two

 

[Paranoid Kendroid]

well done angus

 

[SkyBlue]

Incredible morning for England. Well deserved 5-fer for Atkinson

 

[Shri]

haha all out in 28 minutes

 

[Molehill]

Superb from Atkinson, if he'd had any kid of proper support, India could've been blown away for 100.

 

[RightArmMystery]

Bowled Gus, brilliant half an hour from England. 60 wickets at 21.00 in Test cricket now for Gus. Stay fit now plz.

 

[centurymaker]

70 over old ball is hooping around so much.

I'd say par is around 250-270
