Yeah batted longer than was required. Match nicely setup though. Draw and India win have equal chances ..

India getting their bad decisions out of the way when it doesn't matter. 2 in the first session, should keep them sorted for the next few years.

Awesome stuff my India so far, gotta keep it up. Oh and BHUVI! <3

Him, Jadeja and Ashwin make for such a solid lower middle order. It's a shame they haven't played enough tests together.

Need to put this match away now after getting into this position. Last match was a bit disappointing.

Jaddu's a hack with the bat these days. Not much more than a tailender.

It has a lot to do with the situations he comes in, also he hasn't batted for a while now so some rustiness can be expected. But he's good enough to go on the attack which can be handy in a lot of situations. Bit of a contrast to Ashwin's batting who is relatively more sound technique wise.

Ishant has had a poor series in West Indies, following another poor series against South Africa at home. From a sustained good run in 2014-15 with a healthy average and strike rate, wickets are few and far between this time. What's been the problem? Unlucky again? He's often been India's go-to bowler in Tests, among the faster bowlers.

I don't think he's bowled that badly, and don't forget he won us the 3rd test against SL last year with 8 wickets in the match. Also I don't expect too much from seamers on Indian wickets since it's the spinners who bowl most of the overs anyway.

Jadeja needs to be dumped asap. Mishra is better with both the bat and the ball.

Just piss poor from Samuels today.

I hope that is Samuels last test. That dismissal was worthy of retirement. He's not offering anything and Shai Hope deserves a chance. It's alright having an attacking mentality in a situation like this, and it worked for the team in Jamaica, but you can't have your senior player backing away like that. It sends a dreadful signal to the youngsters.

As soon as Chase started batting, it was like chalk and cheese. He is a proper batsman putting Marlon to shame. No matter what happens here, it's time to move on from Marlon.

Wait are you guys criticizing Jadeja for his batting today? Don't get me wrong, he's a trash batsman, but it was declaration batting. Can't blame him for slogging today.

Honestly have more faith in Mishra's batting. Feel more confident when he walks in.

Yep he wasn't selfish with his wicket. Was good from Jadeja today.

Happy we have three wickets already. Hope we do win.

BTW why is Simmons not there in the side? Injured?
