    Bumrah on fire and brings this one back in on Stokes and it keeps low.
  • Scenes of Monty and Anderson as the latter comes to the crease at 10
  • Bumrah having one of those days it seems. 

    Stokes was ready to take off, they bring him back into the attack and he gets one to stay low second ball.
  • Ooops.....my fault.

    Just got up, put tv on, grabbed breakfast & sat down. First ball I watch & Stoked is bowled. 

    Back to bed....
  • Tom Hartley double ton incoming 
  • When India have a world class pace bowler, preparing bunsens that nullify him as sometimes happens is a waste. It'll be interesting what the pitches in the next few games will be like.
  • Tom Hartley double ton incoming 
    Not the way Anderson is batting. 
  • This should be a fun over one way or another ! Go Hartley.
  • Tom Hartley double ton incoming 
    To be fair to Hartley he does look very solid and wouldn't be the worst number 9 we've ever had. Perhaps, with the recruitment of  Nathan Lyon, Lancashire will look to bat him at 7 next season with a view to turning him into an all rounder.
    Think he averaged 60 odd in the county champ last season

    The Burnley Lara will have to settle for a run a ball 100
  • That was obvious.

    Kiss of death - caught at slip for 21 (24) to give Gill his fourth catch and Bumrah his 5-fer 

    234-9


  • That was obvious. 

    So is your negativity.
  • 1st innings deficit of 150 & having to bat last. Dont think we'll win this one
     
  • Bashir striking at 400. We will lead at the close 
  • Oops no byes 😂

    Really sticking your neck out there…
  • Anderson has clearly pulled rank on Bashir!
  • This is like the old days of facing NZ, when you had Hadlee in his prime at one end, and a trundler at the other.

    Bashir looking significantly better of a batsman, yes
  • 253 all out

    Anderson lbw to Bumrah who takes six.
  • Anderson out LBW to give Bumrah 6-45

    253 all out and India lead by 143
  • Anderson refusing to suffer the indignity of a review there. Wise

    We've only had three innings in this series but 15 occasions an England batsman has reached 20 and failed to get to 50
  • The lack of a second seamer really costing us at the moment, I think the England management have slightly misread the pitch.
  • 28-0 at close for a lead of 171
  • I suspect he won't do that again, ever, in his entire career.  But it's painful to listen to two experienced commentators being absolutely baffled by what's going on, and then exacerbating the situation by quoting, at length, the wrong law.  

    Law 37.4 succinctly covers what happened.  Correct decision by the umpires; embarrassing mistake by - but big learning opportunity for - the batter. 
  • The odds are somewhat stacked against us:

    India 1.08
    England 16.00
    Draw 70.00
