CG Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 India did not have its two best bowlers.Dropped sitters.English batting is as bad.If we win toss and bat it will help . Link to comment
SK_IH Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Yep only a test match is lost Link to comment
R!TTER Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 None of these problems will solve themselves, England will also compete better from here on. They are a team who performs well when they're in front, especially at home. Link to comment
Jamadagni Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 They also didn't have the services of Woakes and Toby Ronaldo Jones. Their drops were even costlier. Their batting is still better than ours. Doesn't matter if we don't post 350+ totals. Link to comment
asterix Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I can bet England will learn from its mistakes, analyse and course correct in the series...This Indian team & management won’t learn, analyse or course correct.I can bet on this.., Sgattick10, nevada, RAZPOR and 3 others 1 5 Link to comment

chewy Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Only positive for India before next match is Stokes will not play 2nd match For India it’s going to be pure luck that one of the specialists batsmen chips in with a 100 to help Kohli Link to comment
Moochad Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 bowlers did fine, all ended up with good or decent figures, batsmen failed, need batting coach to do his job I noticed both Kohli and DK were standing out of their crease to counter the swing, not sure why the other batsmen didn't do the same.

Batting of course has a big question mark until someone takes responsibility. Link to comment
kira Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Kohli just needs support from 2 other batsmen to win this series, if rahane and rahul can support kohli consistently in the future then we'll win this series even with phateechar batting from others Link to comment

Something to do with confidence and experience, if you've batted a certain way for too long it's not easy to adjust. Though I have seen Vijay, Rahane bat out of the crease, however this also reduces your response time. This is the crucial aspect, players who're confident and can get into right positions early do take that slight risk of batting outside the crease. This doesn't work for all, but if you're just defending then playing outside the crease is a better strategy IMO. This way you can also make length balls into half volley, though short balls will be more difficult to handle. Moochad and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment

Iconoclast Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 This series is still India's for the taking. England's batting and fielding is woeful and that's not gonna change. India on the other hand can make changes. It's up to Virat to do it. CG and UrmiSinhaRay 2 Link to comment

express bowling Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Just now, Bilal78 said: Stoke, he may miss the next Test. Stokes is a batting all-rounder and Woakes a bowling all-rounder. This will weaken their batting while not improving their bowling, given Stokes' form with the ball. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment

Abey sun this series is between 2 top test teams (although england isn't that top but still way better than phateecharstan), why are you ( a fan of 7th ranked minnow which got whitewashed by lanka) here?
