Ok guys, whats a good score on this pitch? India have a good day and a half ahead of them at the very least. No need to rush things. 250 odd would take it to 400+

Now watch our marathas crap their pants in these conditions

200 lead was on the cards. WTF tactics from India .... gave away 33 easy runs

Be happy it was not 83 lol You would expect atleast 15 runs from last wicket in such a scenario when you have an inform T20 specialist. I would say 15 to 20 runs more.

STFU all 3 of you ..

[vvvslaxman]

Kohli has to be thinking on the  feet in certain scenarios like we faced today. In the first test when Curren was making merry of INdian bowlers he never thought about bringing Umesh on until the very end.

Always has been the case. I remember how he was cheering for Bangladesh against India in the Wt20 which India won by 1 run

Was rightly kicked out of commentary after that

Sabki fatti padi hai ki hum bhi 100 ke andar all out honge

Now bat India. Bat and bat and bat till Jimmy, Woakes and especially Barbie drop dead. Bat six sessions if needed. You need only 4 to bowl out England. Grind them to dust!

These bhaands better score 300 plus. No excuses.

You guys really think our jokers can even bat 50 overs in these conditions ?

If conditions stay the way they are I'll be surprised if we don't lose more than 4 wkts by the eod 

[Sgattick10]

How many overs left today?

I think they have to be a bit more positive in this session. Too much of defense will hurt us. Allowing them to bowl in the channel ball after all will eventually find the edge of our batsmen.

Hopefully they are positive and try n score runs when possible

Yes we can, but more than that we need runs. If we bat just 50 then we need close to 200 runs to feel safe, if closer to 80 then 250 should be the min target.

[GolGappe]

I'd consider Rahane at number 3 . Quick 30-35 runs can have a huge impact in these conditions.

[vvvslaxman]

Imagine Bhuvi in place of Ashwin here. India can defend anything in the last innings.  Even in the 2nd test had India gone with 5 seamers including Bhvui we would have seen a different match.

cant see india crossing 150. And England knocking it down tomorrow with a Joe Root 100. 

[Turning_track]

Someone please gag Manjrekar, a quintessential panauti.

[figo6762]

Need a quickfire 50 from Dhawan this session. Will push english fielders back. 

[SK_IH]

May be they ll go in for bad light

[Nikola]

We are getting out under 100 in this conditions but we have too big lead to win this test match :)

[figo6762]

I think they might, hopefully these idiots loose a wicket.

What is the weather forecast for tomorrow?
