Yep when we compare these guys to Sunny,Vengsarkar,VVS, Sachin,Dravid, Ganguly bat in these conditions, it is indeed inept. A horrible fall in all-weather batsmen.

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 

ThinkTank has tanked....bewda is there who himself is a daru tank

[RAZPOR]

ok time to make a thread for 3rd test,this one is feked

[Shunya]

 Ashwin fielding

[Moochad]

Some balls are keeping low and are skiddy. It will be tough to survive long on the pitch if the leads gets too far past 100

[rageaddict]

Their approach is best . English players know that they can't bat on this pitch for 110-120 overs hence they are looking to score as quick as possible instead of surviving and doing tuk tuk. 

 

160 runs in 40 overs on this sort of pitch is excellent batting.  No timepass. 

[Straight Drive]

Lead of 66. At least fight in a losing cause. 

[coffee_rules]

How the hell did Ashwin pass the YoYo test? His running is atrocious.

[Switchblade]

Going at 4 an over the game is slipping away 

[Straight Drive]

Our batsman scored at average of 11 runs per wicket, their batsmen are scoring at average of 35 runs per wicket.

Doesn't the press ask tough questions after day's play like it used to be before, why arent ridiculous team selections questioned any more or like the media the journos are also on payroll of BCCI.

Bairstaw, Butter, Woakes always bat this way. 

[PBN]

[putrevus]

Look at their run rate and our run rate that says it all.

Our batsman were barely able to rotate the strike and here England  are doing it easily

Ashwin does the same for India.

[Clarke]

I hope England bat till end of day and rest 2 days are rained off. Shastris & Kohli be like high five!

[Gollum]

Ashwin needs to hold one end up while Ishant and Shami go full throttle from the other end. Very tricky situation now where their RPO is hurting us a lot.

[Shunya]

Field is all spread out since quite some time. Its easy to rotate strike. 

[Switchblade]

Why are they giving easy singles?
