I went to Cancun last month. Had no issues.

 

Read in the news two days back, they found 8 bodies in different parts a bit away from Cancun. Still scary.

I go with bare minimum stuff to not attract attention, not drive at night, and stay in 4 star or higher hotels   .... Usually, I go to Monterrey, where I stay near the airport. But at times to places such as Aguascalientes, which is not bad but people can struggle with English

Pant seems to be having bad time behind wickets... not great with footwork yet... good training series this will be

Dhoni would not have even tried stopping most of those.He watches the ball pass by instead of diving.

The kid is doing a great job.

Gotta play umesh yadav in the next match just for Curran lol

No bouncers to broad yet

Don't understand the tactics

as expected Eng is at the brim of 200 mark .... can Board get a decent score?

[shortbread]

Missing Saha behind the stumps, but time to invest in a young keeper!

no keeper can do anything as those bowls are way to down the leg 

Pant has been outstanding , england is a really ough place to keep 

I think he has not yet figured out the angles properly. He is good in the natural angle, but little late when it is going in opposite angle.

But yes, he is still learning and this is England- one of the toughest places. Surely will be much more finished product by next tour.

What a fighter this Curran lad is.

Dhoni would not even have to dive, he would have grabbed it easily standing.

 

The kid is still learning, let him learn before hyping him so much.

Why are they struggling with their line by bowling middle to leg ,both are lefty ,bowl middle to off 

[zen]

Curran made currey out of our bowlers ... assuming that 225+ is a decent score here

Pant is too fat for his age and in role of wicketkeeper. He needs to get fitter. Simple as that. Else he wont last

Saha is done. Pant is future, England tours are worst for keepers. Pant can be next Dhoni.

Ashwin to Curran, no run, full and flat on leg stump, defended into the on side

68.3

Ashwin to Curran, 2 runs, ooh, finds the edge, but it runs away wide of slip. Flight and dip outside off stump and Curran pokes hesitantly at it, not having gotten close enough to the pitch of the ball to play a more decisive shot. Well wide of Rahane diving to his left, though

68.2

Ashwin to Curran, SIX runs, floats this up outside off and Curran gets to fifty with a six. What an innings this has been. Gets down on his back knee and absolutely wallops this over wide long-on

68.1

0

Ashwin to Curran, no run, full, speared in towards the pads. Looks to flick and misses. Rolls off the pad to short leg

Thanks, Alan. Here's Ashwin from round the wicket.
