3 things certain in life......

England losing an early wicket.0 -
I'm enjoying Aggers on commentary pronouncing Thakur pretty close to Fucker.
Childish I know.1 -
I wouldn't agree that Curran is a weak 4th bowler.killerandflash said:
No pace bowler eitherLincsaddick said:no spinner for England, excepting Root
Curran is a fairly weak 4th bowler too when you only have 4 main bowlers
I'd say he is a very skillful operator and gives England a different option.
Genuine all rounder.0 -
He'd still appeal the twat.North Lower Neil said:Odds on Bairstow being bowled?2 -
Isn't Hameed in the squad? Might he have been a better bet than Bairstow given he's been playing red ball cricket?
Could have come in at 3 with Crawley at 4.0 -
Wondering if Lawrence will get to bowl a few0
-
Can’t believe bairstow has clocked up 75 test caps. I reckon about 25-30 of them are completely undeserved imo.2
-
Kohli did well to hold his nerve and review again there!0
-
I hadn't realised that India have played Jadeja ahead of Ashwin0
-
Root and Bairstow digging us out a little hole here. Root with a classy 50 as ever.1

Hopefully Root kicks on from here now he's in, if Lawrence, Buttler & Curran can chip in from there could get a decent score.0
-
Well at least Bairstow wasn't clean bowled...0
-
Terrible over rate. Only onto the 51st over at tea. Even with an extra 30 mins I doubt that they will get anymore than 82/83 overs in today.
Time for penalty runs. How about double the run rare for every over lost. So if only 83 over bowled today then England get added 7x (2x2.7= 5.4). Rounded up that would be 38 extra runs.
That would concentrate the minds.1 -
0(18) is pretty special.0
-
Buttler looked a Test player for about two of those 18 balls3
-
Root is carrying this batting line up. Hopefully they bring Hameed and Malan into that top 30
-
An all-too-typical Root knock!0
-
getting embarrassing.0
-
5-17.0

Urgh, what a crap shot from Mr Twitter0

I blame the ECB for this shambles! Hardly any first class cricket played by many of our team this season so far, as ECB is to busy chasing a quick buck by brining in the very stupid Hundred comp, at the same time as One day cup and T20'S.
If you play lots of one day cricket and the shots played in those comps, Championship and Test cricket discipline just doesn't exist.
It's not fucking rocket science!!13 -

I've made the same point time and time again. And yet we have an in form red ball batsman who scored a ton against this Indian side a couple of weeks ago who can't get a look in.

Please remind me......is this a ODI, a T20 or a 100 match ?2

Awful to watch.We are just abysmal at the moment.India are bowling very well and our batting again as been awful.Watch them make batting look easy and watch us struggle to take wickets.Just not good enough.To many of our players playing are t20 and one day and it shows.Pathetic.2

One of those Save Us Jimmy matches again...0

Sadly I think you're going to be right, we are playing stupid shots against good bowling, unless we come out firing on all cylinders when they bat I fear we are screwed and it's only day 1.greenwichred68 said:Awful to watch.We are just abysmal at the moment.India are bowling very well and our batting again as been awful.Watch them make batting look easy and watch us struggle to take wickets.Just not good enough.To many of our players playing are t20 and one day and it shows.Pathetic.
We don't even have a settled side with all this rest and replace nonsense!1 -
Its been going on for far to long.And the problem is there isnt any decent batters out there.The top 3 have been to inconsistant and know that even if they dont score runs they will play the next test.Test cricket in England slowly dying and this upsets me.Redmidland said:
