Happy with day's play ,if we somehow get to 340-350 ,it'll be a really good total .

This is not a patta by any means ,just see the ball was jagging and pitch was responsive once the new ball was taken 

Hamari bowling kaisa karegi uspe bahut kuch dependant hai

I think the pitch is starting to quicken up a bit. It was quite easy paced in the first two sessions but they got good carry and swing with the second new ball. Tomorrow might a bowling day. I reckon 350 might be a good total here. 

True.in these conditions 400 is almost impossible to score against quality attacks especially India's and England's. Gone are those days of 400-500 scores because every team are relentlessly attacking with 4 pacers (1 AR included) and there's no let away. 

Kohli will smell this opportunity and make sure to pounce on this brittle England line up ,a decent first innings lead will be super helpful

Looks like a patta. Cook 300 coming up

let him get thru first 6 over spell of bumrah first and then if he manages ..then he will face the demon ASHWIN.

 

Ashwin always like to harass batters who don't know how to play him...

I trust our bowling led by kohli .even if England are 200/3 I still believe in our side to comeback from such situations ,we need to make the new ball count

Unlucky Ishant should be used as a third seamer not opening bowler.

[Oldhere]

Seen it multiple times with India i.e wasting such a good start on 1st day.

 

blom 2001, melbourne etc etc.

 

this is where we will miss bhuvi. Needed 375 but think we will be getting arnd 330.

 

just want Pant to survive 15 mins tomorrow and then go bersek with Ashwin

i was looking for you since morning, where were you my dear Lala..

 

Hope we make it 2-1 and then 2-2 and then 3-2, to prove my predictions true.

 

I was busy in the morning and no interest because i thought this would be one sided too 

 

But I heard somebody said this is a flattest track in England where 400 may not be enough. Anyway I dont know the validity. Therefore you don't get too much excited until the results are in your favour. Still long way to go Vishal Bhai

Pandya fought well today but got into a shell even with the old ball. Could hav scored 40 runs for the same balls faced. 

 

Dude averages freaking 29 in domestics and we give him a guaranteed slot. 

 

Lol. 

That's what happens when a country of billion ppl playing cricket, we hardly get any all rounders. 

[Cricketics]

India must add at least 100 more runs to the total tomorrow. Anything less will be throwing away a good start and bringing England back in the game. 400+ Our score and then we can expect our bowlers to bowl these guys out for under 300 and get a decent lead. 

[Bigg Brother]

Didnt watch match yesterday but came across from Twitter that Holding did some disrespectful remarks for Indiana wearing armbands??

 

What exactly did he say?

[The Cricket Cast]

You knew it was just a matter of time before the Indian batsmen came to the party. 

 

The only question is if its purely due to the pitch/conditions being flat or not. Only way to find out is after tomorrow when England have batted on it. Should be an exciting game if India can get close to 400.

England might 450 all out but Ashwin will bother them on day 5 while  ECB chasing for victory
