England vs India, 5th Test, 7th-11th Sept - The Oval

[putrevus]

Rahane's catch was easier, Kohli's would have had to stick but Kohli has no technique to catch those types of catches.

Bumrah bowling like two feets behind the line after no balls.

 

Review lost by kohli who always depends on luck for reviews.

[The Realist]

Aus tour is gonna be brutal with this lot shelling catches and then chasing leather on big pitches.

Both for batting and fielding need a whole new team for that tour.

Kaala zaadoo done on indian team by someone. They are fielding like Pakistani lol

[Lannister]

In England, catches win you games. The possibility of getting out LBW or Bowled is extremely low. 

[zen]

I hope this will not go down as one of the most boring test games

 

Could have rested Bumrah, who is playing in Asia Cup 

[The Realist]

Boring game time to go off for a nap

 

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Can vihari bowl well enough to keep it tight for a few overs? 

[Ankit_sharma03]

bumrah bowling long spells here , usko asia cup bhi jaana hai 

[kruiser]

any more drops yet?? I stopped watching!

[zen]

Boring team selection has sucked the fun out of the game

 

Only wkts can make it interesting .... I hope we get the reverse swing going 

[Nikhil_cric]

14th over for bumrah. Outstanding captaincy Mr. Kohli.

he is a part timers after a point they loose control

Thats why few of us have been so in favour of pandya or even shankar here.....

[zen]

Please don't burn out Bumrah in this game .... bowl the other bowlers more

Already two dropped catches . Bowling has gone legside a bit but England haven't punished it. It's unforgivable to drop catches like that. Bowlers can only create so many chances.

In this game, his job is to keep it tight and give little away so that other bowlers get a rest.

Can't afford to burn out Bumrah, who is due to play in Asia cup where he would be our prime bowler 

 

Jadeja is not a 1st inning bowler overseas .... so Sharma and Shami, who tends to huff and puff, will have to bowl more .... Probably missing Pandya already .... have to pick up quick wkts but we dropped catches too .... the pitch is good for batting
