Katich's against the Zimbos?

That one came before Clarke.

 

[Prince EWS]

This is probably the funniest 5-fer since Clarke's.

Roston Chase taking 8/60 was pretty hilarious because the pitch wasn't anywhere near as spinny as this one.

It was exciting to watch the umpires must be tired lifting the fingers. Felt like watched a t10 game in Dubai lol.. night everyone. Cheering India this game. Would rather play India in finals at lords and definitely not England. Hoping to wake up tomorrow and see England bowled out for 36 lol

 

[Groundking]

Sub 10 bowling average for Root this year

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Bat like 3 metres outside the crease I reckon

 

[Pup Clarke]

Root is a front-line bowler masquerading as a part-timer. Cunning work from the skipper!

 

[Heboric]

Didn't elgar get one at nagpur?

I think he got 4 wickets. But the surface made him look like a million dollars..

 

[cnerd123]

I have a bad feeling Root's going to sweep his way to a match-winning 70 odd here.

 

[Gnske]

That one came before Clarke.

Figured it was pretty close, dang.

 

[mackembhoy]

Jack leach is the unluckiest cricketer ever.

Yet again somehow the other bloke gets a fifer.

 

[OverratedSanity]

For comedic value, Ishant's 7 fer at lords was right up there even though hes not a part time obviously.

 

[Dissector]

Hoping to wake up tomorrow and see England bowled out for 36 lol

I think you mean 25...

 

[Gnske]

Also I request that the mods take efforts to amend the thread name from Sardar Patel Sports Complex to the 3rd Test at Narendra Modi Stadium. Horrible upkeeping of the thread.

Katich's against the Zimbos?

Reminds me when Mark Butcher took a few against Zimbabwe in 2003. Possibly not a five-for though.

 

[nzfan]

Very happy to know Dave Jeetan Patel is behind this. He's England's spin bowling coach.

 

[Gnske]

For comedic value, Ishant's 7 fer at lords was right up there even though hes not a part time obviously.

Oh for sure. That was one of the worst things I've ever seen.

He deserved it though.

 

[Shri]

root

 

[cnerd123]

Also wtf is up with renaming the stadium on the eve of the match. That's bad JuJu.

yup

Can't believe I forgot that one. Now that was peak comedy.

Bounced them out no less. God that makes me shudder.
