Good first day of test cricket! Great comeback by India after Wood made the early indents. So happy to see Sarfaraz in Indian colours. This kid has a bright future ahead of him. So unlucky to get run out.

Incredible innings from Duckett. No fear at all.

No fear and no lack of quality either, some unbelievable shots in there.

Only solace is that at least the defeat was not as bad as if Ashwin had not run down the middle of the wicket early on D2  :D . Ah D2, feels like a lifetime ago - heady days  :D !....

Bairstow hasn’t done much since his amazing summer V india

How long. Has he got left to go ?

Is Brook coming back for the series ?

It was mostly against New Zealand. The India Test was a rescheduled one.

Root the same with the bat at least middle order and lower top order been pretty poor this series.
As was said on commentary England lost this game with such a lead given to India on second innings.

Its sad to see the Bazballers cry about DRS after the loss. Dont blame a system for your loss.

Does feel like Stokes is being let down by his senior pros a bit here - Root, Bairstow, Foakes (maybe) do owe the team some consistent runs.

You can't play all this glorious cricket yet concede 130 run leads in the first innings, especially in India.

It's a shame because I think the gamble with callow spinners is probably still in credit, plus wood and Jimmy have done pretty well - just gotta get those runs on the board!

I like JB but can't really see him staying in and maybe rightly so. I can see Lawrence coming in, as not sure Brook is available? If he was, he'd be in surely? They're not gonna drop Root and not should they, he's still the best player they've got.

I'd have Lawrence in for JB, don't think Brook will play this series at all if he's not back in India yet. Might relieve some bowling pressure from Root and allow him to rest properly too.

Brooke is out for the tour. Baz has said today that YJB likely keeps his spot.
