Gollum Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Still can't fathom the logic behind Root's decision, overconfidence? Or does ECB want a competitive test series? They have surrendered their pre-game advantage, LOL it's a bat 1st, win the match scenario. Link to comment

Brown and dry grass on the wicket, so pitch will turn later on. I can't believe Root's stupidity , what a blunder !!!!! Just wait and see how our team crumble. Then your all khayali pulav will be tarnish.brace yourself for another 100 score Switchblade 1 Link to comment

Hope India bats well, else no advantage. Link to comment

Seam you mean. Tomorrow it will seam and swing, I pity the team that bats tomorrow. Also the team that bats last because it will seam and swing and spin. Link to comment

The team couldn't bat a day figuratively in last test match ,so he is just trying to take advantage of a uncertain batting likeup low in confidence You can see why he is bullish about bowling here Link to comment
Gollum Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I wish Kohli had lost the toss in CT 2017 F, Sarfraz wanted to have a bowl first. Lannister and express bowling 2 Link to comment

Now England will get the worst use of conditions all match. If we apply ourselves for this one day we will put ourselves in a great position, Root has taken a huge and unnecessary gamble.

I agree batting 1st is better for us but you can see where Root is coming from Mind you there is no guarantee our bowling will capitalize on any situation either Link to comment

Green on pitch & overcast conditions against this fragile line up means he wants to put us to play catch up in an hour or two. Link to comment
