peasy23 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Breakthrough for England as Robibson gets Kohli to edge one caught behind by Root for 42. 267-3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moomintroll Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 This could still go either way as I am not convinced by Indias tail & a couple of early wickets tomorrow could tip the scales, nevertheless I am going with an India win close to either side of Lunch on day 4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moomintroll Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Could be a collapse on the cards here, 2 early wickets & need one more to get into that long tail.England could get them out for 350 which would be a result after yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eminently possible, indeed likely I'd say. Equally likely though is England utterly shitting the bed and being all out for 193. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi Shandrix Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 350 would be a perfectly good score here. 400 is getting into the realm of very good and puts England's already shaky top order under great pressure. Smasher Pant just getting warmed up. Half an hour of Pant will be fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Buttler drops Sharma, diving effort but he got a full glove one it, should have held on to it imo.. Caused a bit of panic though as the two batsmen have a mix up next ball and almost get run out.355-7 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 2 more run out chances, one the batsman was just in before Hameed's throw from deep was a direct hit. Next one Bairstow missed from 5 or 6 yards away with the batsman yards from safety. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimi Shandrix Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 364 all out. Decent total. Let's see what England can do in reply. I'm guessing not as much as 364. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 And Jadeja out right away trying to hit Mark Wood into next week, but hits it straight up in the air with Anderson taking the catch.364 about as good as England could have hope for this morning imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimi Shandrix Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Siraj to Hameed. What a fucking beauty. England's top order at it again. Can Root save then again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuctifano Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Maybe England should play 5 openers plus Root as a top 6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Some return for Hameed [emoji1787]Ball didn't do much but it was a horrible one to face first up, just done him for pace. How many times will Sibley get out virtually the same way? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi Shandrix Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Siraj is the Indian Stuart Broad and I claim my £5. Surely Pant has got to see that as well. I've never stood behind a set of stumps in my life, but even with my Indian hat on I could tell in real time that they were both smashing into 4th stump. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggyness Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The late wicket of Burns tips this in India's favour. Given England's propensity for losing wickets in clusters tomorrow morning could be fun. Also without Stokes I don't see a lot of runs in that England tail currently unless Moeen pulls something out the bag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Root is still around by tea then England have had a great day and a couple of them will make 30 or 40 while he gets around 150. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Root and Bairstow bring up their 100 partnership, and Bairstow goes past 50 shortly afterwards. England currently 210-3 on the verge of lunch. Root on 84. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
