Kohli having a shocker of a test match.

Ashwin has got injured diving in the outfield!

[Lala]

Good comeback by India. It would be great if India can restrict England within 200 and this pitch seems to be a low scoring thriller. I bet even a target around 150 won't be easy to chase on a day 5 pitch for England.

Yup, rain should fall so much that we won't need to bat more than one session and half hour.

Under the contract with ECB, BCCI has agreed to allow Indian batsmen bat whenever possible in a rainy day... England bowlers will protest otherwise...

Even Woakes is looking for scoring opportunities whereas Pujara was blocking deliveries after deliveries fully aware that he might get out any time. Same thing with Vijay. Its time we looked beyond such mediocre selfish batsmen who always put individual record over team's cause.

They aren't selfish, in chootiyon ki aukaat itni hi hai.

We needed one more pacer here. 160 / 5 is bad in the context of a this match.

Maybe it's time to get someone who can score quickfire 30 at the top. I have given up on a 50 from any other batsman than kohli.

That 5th bowler would’ve taken the same score to 190/5 by this time...

[Moochad]

Feel bad for Kuldeep, he gets a match but it turns out to be the wrong pitch for him and Ash both to be in the team. 

 

I guess "thinktank" didn't read the weather report and thought it was going to be dry all 5 days 

[Gollum]

Rashid didn't bowl a single over here, this has to rank very high among the inexplicable selection blunders by Indian management.
