***Official*** England in India 2016/17

[flibbertyjibber]

Only 2 results Jono in 5 games? Are they playing in bad weather areas or something?

 

[vcs]

I think it'll be a bore draw in Rajkot, and India will tie the series 2-2 in the last match.

 

[GIMH]

I'll be pessimistic for a change, England to win 4-0

I like this........am I right in thinking you called the 2012 result correctly??

 

[GIMH]

Possibly. I called 4-0 in 2011 for sure

Moeen, Woakes and Stokes is so unfair. Rashid can bat too. Genuinely more afraid of their lower order than even Root and Cook.

Unlikely to fire together on turning tracks. I am worried about us getting through the top order quickly only for Cook or Root along with Bairstow to grind our spirits out.

If Cook and Root score a few then it doesn't hurt as much mentally as it does when Bairstow and Stokes rescue you from 120/5 or whatever to 300+

Bairstow's quickly becoming as annoying as Prior was

I thought that too but it's exactly what happened in the current Bangladesh Test.

Well Bairstow is at least not a **** like he was so there's that. Can't hate him if he keeps scoring gritty fifties. I think Ashwin vs Stokes will be interesting if Ashwin gets into his head somehow, like how he managed to annoy Maxwell once in an IPL tourney.

Yeah, the age of the ball wouldn't matter this much in India so we might see something different.

I'll fight you and all your RANDY mates if you say a bad word about Matty Prior.

I'm not sure what RANDY is but Shri is not a member of the esteemed RANDI

What the **** is it anyway? It popped up during my ban.

 

[OverratedSanity]

One the one hand, RANDI is a great name because it's apt, but on the other, it makes us sound like a cult of Ayn Rand-worshipping ****wits.

You are not one then? That last part.

Oh, then my apologies......you should know that I have the highest respect for RANDI.

I'll just have to fight Shri and his no mates then.
