India tour of England 2018

[asprin]

Just one wicket of Root and we're sorted, their lower order isn't going to click every single time.

Hello, did you forget about our latest tormentor, AKA Curran?

I've very often been a harsh critic of Ishant but his relentless accuracy has been admirable. It kept us in the game at Jo'burg and very often in this series. He finally seems like a proper test match bowler.

Right then, the real batting order starts now.

Don't really think he can go big this time around.[DOUBLEPOST=1535810817][/DOUBLEPOST]

lol yeah.

Waiting .....

I did say it!

 

[aditya123]

We need two more before tea to feel like we are in the contest. England still bossing it.

 

[SaiSrini]

Need the remaining 5 wkts (especially the big one of Sam Curran) before England score an additional 40 more runs. A target of >150 wont be too bad though it will still be very challenging when facing up to Moeen and Rashid in the 4th innings.

 

[abhi_jacko]

Lead by 110. 5 wickets in hand still... Plenty of hitters around

Advantage england big time now

Yet another test.... Where we 'almost' did it

Yeah and anything over 200 is game over for us. It seems England are getting ahead here easily.[DOUBLEPOST=1535812484][/DOUBLEPOST]Also Ashwin does not seem fit to me!

Butler and Stokes are looking extremely comfortable.

Stokes butter partnership again destroying our chances.
I can bet you Curran will score another useful 30 or so.
So we literally need a big partnership which seems improbable in the 4th innings unless England collapse in their current innings.
In other words we need a ton from kohli and from one other player or 30s from 4 players

It was good while it lasted. This is the session where the series will finally be lost. The bite is lacking in Ashwin's bowling. The writing is on the wall.

 

[Aalay]

Ashwin needs to step up in this session if we want to win this game.

Far from it. He seems to have run out of ideas. Maybe time for Pandya to bowl a couple.

Forget 180-200, we would be lucky to restrict them below 250 from here on.
