Maybe because they normally have the tech to back them up

Agree with hosk poor cricketing fans good Indian fans.

I liked Kholi a lot but think he like Gambhir who play for them-self and believe there own hype

Where is JEET the defender

[charlie15]

He was dissapointed in Trott for hitting Jadeja's pea roller and said he would never've done that. He also said trott had been out numerous times in his innings so that brought about the bad blood. It was his demeanor tho, sounded like a hard done by school boy.


Exactly poor Baba.....

It's a hard life when things don't go your own way in you're own backyard.  No offence intended, but this serious has shown Indian cricket for what it really is, the spoilt playground bully who spits his dummy out when he doesn't get his own way.

England have done a fantastic job since the first test, and it will be an outstanding achievement if they going to win the series tomorrow (not many of us gave them a hope in hell), I just hope there isn't a bitter aftertaste to it.

I'm surprised they haven't just taken their ball home with them.

I think the attitude if the so callled Inidian 'fans of the game' has been a bit sad!
I realise that they are eager to see their team perform well, and they are not at the moment. But fans of the game?
I don't think they are!! The only cheer seems to be when an Indian does something half decent or hits a couple of runs.
When the opposing team hits a 50 or a 100, very few even clap!

I'm not saying that any fans are perfect. But if you get a member of the opposing team score a ton at Lords or another ground, or even pull off a great shot.....then most of the fans applud it! That to me is enjoyment and appreciation of the sport, something that seems to be lacking in India at the moment. Even if an Aussie hits a ton then the English fans stand and clap (even though it pains us to  )

Completely concur with Pete.

I recall Wasim Akram saying that when you play in India there is thousands of Indian supporters cheering so when you take a wicket there is a pin-drop silence throughout the ground.

Exactly poor Baba.....

Haha! That made me chuckle

or "arranged" for a sudden mis season change of rules outlawing other sides bringing spinners?

[ppccopener]

england will get exactly what they 'we' deserve tommorow,a series victory as heavy underdogs in alien conitions.There is a reason it's been 27 years since the last one.
The Indian players incl Dhoni and Kholi lost it this afternoon,Cook has been sawn off twice,if your behind the wicket,especially keeping when there's a nick,you know if the batter has hit it or not.Not a problem to appeal then but berating the umpire later on for a non nick off Trott takes the biscuit.Either have DRS to reduce the howlers,or accept what the umpire says is final-they did themselves no favours moaning at the umpire.
We have dismantled India in their own conditions,the revenge series turns out to be nothing of the sort.
perhaps the BCCI will give test cricket the respect it deserves in the future.
The ultimate form of the game

I often feel like there is an arrogance from Indian cricket, knowing that they have they are the biggest cricket nation and economy they use this to push every other nation around.

[joeylough]

Anyone got a link to a video of Trott chasing down that no ball?

haha thanks fella.

[Manormanic]

did the umpires actually no ball Jadeja for the double bumper...?

[Manormanic]

Nearly there....given the conduct of the Indian side and those ridiculous "revenge" statements, if I were Cook I would refuse to shake hands early and keep them out int he field to the very end of the days play...
