Vijay has an amazing Test batting technique and he is looking great! When he crosses 77, he always scores a century.

Kohli is a rockstar who makes no mistakes.

Kholi is a class player thats for sure

Good wicket there for Ball thou! :-)

True. He has been batting like a machine last couple of years.

India looking like they'all get a lead of 50-100. Kohli looking good again.

Advantage of winning the toss has been nullified, just goes to show how well ashwin bowled

Who needs a third spinner when we have Root!!




But seriously anyone seem the scores for the lions game?england look like they should win(afghan need another 80 with 3 wickets left)
But on a pitch where the afghan spinner Rashid has just took an 8 for(to add to his 4 in the first innings) Leach has just took 1 wicket all game.

Maybe rodgers was right when he said he wasn't ready.

Root showing the advantage of giving the ball some air. Ali just hasn't done that

[smilley792]

Also we have 4 seamers. Yet

Rashid just bowled 15 in a row, and Ali 12, and now Root is on to give one of them a rest.
We really have got selection wrong this tour on the bowling front.

Keaton 'Titch' Jennings

One brings 4! Good catch by Jennings. Got to feel a bit sorry for the batsman

[smilley792]

Seriously, whys as Ashwin even trying to stay there for that? What was the questioning??


It may well have been cookies call before he left the field.
But judging by a few comments on the various social media platforms, it looks like cook had left the field, so Root bought himself on and has snagged two! Haha

[alexhilly1492]

Yes root!

Also does this look like a gn edge stamp covered up on ash wins bat?

[csnew]

Ashwin is using SG, that edge branding is sunny tonny.

If only rashid had held onto that!! Would have turned the game

[csnew]

So you take root off for Ali to come on and bowl half trackers!

[smilley792]

Woakes has bowled 5 overs
Stokes 8
Ball 10
Anderson 12

Root onto 7

Ali 38
Rashid 33


Yep we definately didn't need the third spinner we Carried in the last 3 games......

[ppccopener]

Up at 4am to watch,fell asleep missed all the wickets,and we are back in the game.
Meantime root has binned cook and brought himself on!!
