Yet when woakes does the same you’d say

“Doesn’t really show much, bad India under the pump with an injured Kohli in perfect bowling conditions. Shouldn’t be playing “

Broad looks to be really running in today which is good to see.

India def had the worst of the conditions to bat in this match but as sangakara has said you have to get used to it. When we go abroad this winter it's our Achilles heel of spin which will be exposed and down to our batters to improve against it.
pretty sure pre Sri Lanka tour Sanga found a county to play for to acclimatise properly, certainly is the last part of his career

Huge emphasis on preparation and practice listening to him talk surely a lesson for us all in there.

Practice ...and practice  :)

Anyway. Moving on from the senile/woakes saga.



Not much go between now and the grid test. Will kohlis back have recovered enough? How’s ashwins hand??

You’d presume at little jadeja and dhwahan come in for those two and that should mean England win easily.

Do we think any bigger changes?

I’d like to see pant given a go. India should follow England and blood some youngsters.

Jadeja should of been in the last match he has to come in, the problem India have is despite being number 1 in the world their top order has no experience of English conditions. Kholi is by far the best bat on show on either side and can cope thru sheer skill

I read a stat India have changed their team 25 consecutive matches or something, so more changes now won't really matter.
wrong team as well with leaving the seamer out

Far as I know with day 1 washed out they could still of named the extra seamer at start of day 2-correct me if I'm wrong.

They have nothing to lose by giving Pant a game now and hope it's sunny at Trent bridge when they bat.

On a wider scale, the away team being awarded the toss argument becomes more relevant when an Asian team comes here.

They have to even it up for away sides I think. Same when we tour Sri Lanka in the winter.
