How bad is Ashwin's injury?

Is he out of this series?

Theya re talking about him bowling in the 2nd innings. It is a hip injury.

I think there is some issue for kohli against Anderson when it comes to meeting points. At times I feel he is giving him too much respect to Anderson given Kohli's caliber. 

He just doesnt want to give his wicket to Anderson... Anderson said a few things before the start of series, hows he's gonna target Virat and so on.

India is in this winning position because of Dhawan. His opening stand laid the foundation.

Pujara back to being pujara again , last 11 runs of 49 deliveries but that's understandable before eod

Yup it definitely helped Pandya taking 5 wickets in 29 balls lol

I will give a pass now given that it is the last over.

Too many bouncers.. waisting time by England

Only reasons Kohli didn't take on is because it was the last few overs.

Excellent day by India.Lead already 290 and 8 wkts in hand.India should bat them out of the game.

Ind played for the day .... As spectators, we would want to see quick runs but from the team's PoV that is not required

End of play-complete domination of 2nd & 3rd sessions by Indians.

Credit to openers but Pandya is the one that changed the game 

Lets not forget rahane n kohli partnership

Great day for India!

 

End of day's play with Pujara and Kohli at the crease with India leading by 292 runs... I'd take that than risk losing one of them just to get to 300.

 

Should aim to get 400+ tomorrow first. Then build from there.

It's ok this time.Both played defensive due to Dhawan's wicket.The run rate is still 4.Dhawan and Rahul and to some extent Pujara when he came in initially scored runs quickly.2 sessions tomorrow and I don't see Eng catching up at all.

[vvvslaxman]

Another 150 runs we can put the match way beyond England's reach. India must score runs quicker. That is very very very vital.

3rd day is usually one of the best for batting

Pandya with too many 'you know's' he tries to copy the west indian accent

Hope Puji and Kohli see off the first session tomorrow. Then grind their bowlers to dust by 4th day lunch. Big ones for Puji and Rahane will help them with their confidence and a 50 for Pant will seal his place for sometime now.

most likely we could get bowled out or declare tomorrow w/ Eng batting in the final session
