    I don't want to know how you celebrate a wicket.

    How many test wickets do you need to have a 'Y' added to the end of your name?

    Was that 25 overs in the session, with Bashir on for some of it...?

    To be fair to England, the Indian players have been very slow to get ready etc, both teams are culpable here

    Prior to the current Test, Ben Stokes had won the toss eleven times.   

    He's batted first twice: P2 W0 D0 L2 
    He's bowled first nine times: P9 W7 D1 L1

    A bit of scoreboard pressure when England eventually bat, after the best part of 2 days in the field. Especially on Crawley.

    Christ this is boring. Can’t the Indians at least bash it about a bit.

    Getting some tap here. I guess we have to take the rough with the smooth when it comes to Stokes' bowl first policy

    Can't see how even this England team can Farokh (Engineer) a win from this situation.

    Batting well, short boundaries....

    Not saying it'll happen but that's how.

    Gill must be kicking himself for the runs left out on that pitch, can’t be getting out so cheaply at this level

    15-2 - Ducket and Pope go for ducks and unbelievable Creepy is still there . Not for long I suspect

    Bowling first on plum batting tracks in the middle of what will likely be the hottest summer on record is not a sustainable tactic despite what Messrs Stokes and McCallum may think...

    Shock horror . The waste of space Crawley goes just after I mention him . We’ll be lucky to last till lunch let alone tea.

    India bowling very well on this pitch.Its easy when you bowl the ball in the right spot.
    Awful cricket allround from England today.Stokes owes us a big 100.

    What was Stokes thinking. The shots from Crawley and Pope were awful. Need a double hundred from both batters at the crease.

    There is some hope:

    "Of the three completed Tests in which England conceded over 550 under Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum, they have astonishingly won all three."

    Root gone for 22. A lot to do to save it from here.

    Stokes is having a wonderful game. Putting India in to bat then getting a first baller.

    Safe to say the score will be 1-1 with 3 to play.
