ADMIN NOTE:

 

Folks, we're testing our new betting feature in this thread. Kindly bear with us.

Our problems against Moeen (in Eng) and Lyon are mental. Seen Lyon pick so many wickets of fulltosses and rank long hops against us since the 2011 series, Lyon is a terrific spinner but many of his wickets against us are gifts by our maharathis. With Moeen I think we struggle so much against Eng quicks that we desperately search for an outlet, we don't play our normal cricket against Moeen...same guy came to India in 2016 and got tonked all over the park depite 400+ scores in 1st dig by his team. Eager to see how Moeen does here next time, in case there is any other explanation.

@maniac time to announce Joseph > Pujara due to MI captain's grooming skills.

they are missing Archer,Bowling is looking tame at the moment.

[Stan AF]

Bat today and tomorrow. Need more batting practice for the 3rd test.

 

Brathwaite gets his 2nd 50 of the series.

[Stan AF]

Back to back 4s after broad's review.

[Stan AF]

As a neutral fan you could see at windies batting and you get some sense of confidence when they're batting in england which was never there when Indian  batsmen play.

[Stan AF]

I like the way how they deal in boundaries. 

[Stan AF]

Bowling -ve lines

[Norman]

So Windies won't lose this series. 

 

So that makes us the only team to lose every series played in England since 2010. 

[Norman]

Australia drawed last year. 

 

New Zealand drawn in 2013 and 2015. 

 

South Africa won in 2012. 

 

Pakistan drawn in 2016 and 2018 

 

Sri Lanka won in 2014. 

 

Meanwhile our results read 4-0, 3-1 and 4-1. 

[Gollum]

India doesn't deserve 5 test series in England. 

[Gollum]

Bess is mediocre.

[zen]

WI can draw this and therefore win the series (I guess, it is a 2 match series)
