vinnyt77 Batting looks pretty tricky this morning. Think it’s the right call not to enforce the follow on, and leave India (hopefully) chasing a biggish target in the 4th…
baggers44 vinnyt77 just need the ball to get a bit softer - i quite fancy 420 and 110 overs to bowl at them
vinnyt77 And of course Root’s come in and is making it look like child’s play. baggers44 Yeah - sub 400 doesn’t feel comfortable. Remember Sachin’s amazing ton at the same venue in 2008, chasing down 390 odd…
alistair They should declare at 400. We need a day and a half at them and I don’t see them chasing down anything more.
alistair There appears to be even more in this pitch for the bowlers than before. Bess will be licking his lips
baggers44 alistair It looks a bit up and down - actually think Stokes bowling straight at the stumps will be effective. Another hour smashing it now then declare.
baggers44 alistair i think they want 2 goes with the new ball - one tonight and one when its starts to reverse in the am. hilarious that the shite commentators are so affronted. they never captained in a test either of them!
