Should have sent Moeen Ali ahead of Stokes and Butler. He would have batted at run a ball and played out Jadeja and Ashwin. Butler and Stoles could have caused a lot of damage coming in around this stage with Jadeja bowled out and Ashwin 1 over to bowl.

What Is it with England inability to pick a bowling line up this tour. They got it wrong literally every test.


Last odi, 3 spinners bowled on a pitch not even the Indian spinners did anything on.

This game, 1 spinner bowled 6 overs while seam got carted.
Indian spinners have controlled this game and won it.



We really have no clue who to select on what pitch. It's embarrassing.

Please please please, England selectors get the lad Billings in, would be perfect for situations just like this

C'mon boys

India's medium pacers getting some tap. Still only need 10rpo going into last 12 overs. Morgan could be playing a captain's knock here

Run rate of 10 PO doable in last 10 overs in modern cricket

Shame about wickets

[ppccopener]

as long as Morgan is there i'm not giving up

Moeen Ali should have came ahead of Butler or even Stokes. He plays spin better and could have batted at run a ball with someone like Butler coming now and could have taken these medium pacers to cleaners.

Once upon a time this score would have been well out of reach! The fact we're into the last 10 overs and still have a chance is good! Finally England have caught up in white ball cricket yes we may not win but at least there's now a chance of making 380/390/400

On a side note billings for hales next game please

Might be better if ali gets out and get wiley in to give it a biff

[Manormanic]

If we don't think our bowlers can restrict India to under 325, why does it matter if we have five or six?

It doesn't.

Drop a bowler, and Hales, get Billings and YJB in.

[rickjames]

All these dot balls.

Would that be Ali who has the highet SR of the innings so far?

Stupid comment when Ali batted the quickest and can be dangerous in these conditions just like last game where he batted at 160 strike rate. His innings has given England a sniff.
