India tour of England 2025 - 5 Tests

[Paranoid Kendroid]

Do you guys think India will actually declare if they lead by 110-120 runs with 10 overs remaining ?

10 overs would serve no purpose. Only the West Indies would be threatened by this

I wouldn't be giving this England lineup even a sniff of a run chase. No chance they take the wickets in time and England's line up could easily go at 10+ an over in a short period time if required. Granted they'd be facing Bumrah but I think it's just pointless to do that.

Sidenote: I'd love if India did that, would be extremely entertaining but in reality no chance they declare. Now, India being bowled out with 10 overs to go and 100-120 in front... that will be a seriously fun watch, cause England would definitely go for it

N Jagadeeshan!

I am somewhat not convinced with the Pant replacement talks here. Why not KS Bharat?

 

[Kamboh]

So now it's draw

Liam Dawson proving the English Selectors for the last 8 years absolutely correct

India seems to prefer a batting keeper over keeper bat. Jagadeeshan was a surprise but I just had a look and he seems to have a good batting record which is what would have worked in his favor after Ishan Kishan was unavailable due to injury.

All said and done, I don't think the team will throw him in the match situation straight away. Jurel will be the obvious choice for the final XI. Kishan on the other hand would be cursing his luck. He is the most like for like replacement for Pant and was playing county cricket until earlier this month. This could have been a golden opportunity for him to revive his Test career.

Both batters, especially Sundar, should look to score some runs and get to their hundreds.

what the !!!

did the ENG team come for shake hands now ? bro 15 overs still left & ENG can make 75 runs even in 5 overs & they come now just now , they don't believe themselves to chase if by chance it was declared now

 

[Supreme General]

First time we’ve felt in full control of a test this series. Not just in bursts or right at the end but taking the game by the scruff of the neck from the first and said we are winning this and drag you through the dirt

So by that logic it’s going to be a draw

I mean I wasn’t wrong
