WHat's happening to Swann... ordinary commentary

What did he say ?

Axar's like the less threatening but slightly more accurate version of Jadeja, except with the bat & field of course.

[Jay]

just when i say it, faokes gets killed.

Why do they say this pitch is spinning ... looks good for me ..typical subcontinent wicket .. all axar wickets were of straight balls ..

foakes is much better than butler. butler will come in, slog and get out. foakes wears down bowlers. 

Butler slogs will atleast get 40-50 runs.12 off 58 isnt a good score.He should have accelerated long time ago

Axar gets a 6fer at his home ground. Only the 2nd Indian to get 5fer in consecutive tests

Just the second? Didn't Ashwin get this done last test, you're telling me no one did it before him

The pitch is spinning big, let's not do mental gymnastics over this basic fact.

stroke players will do very well here. no point being defensive. you will be a sitting duck here if you defend all day.

In the first pink ball test in India last year, India dismissed Bangladesh for 106. They have done a encore of that here as well. Now need a 100 from one of top 4 to seal the deal.

Need to tweet that swann ... keeps complaining about spin... useless LS and Ajit are completely in capable of any counter 

[gattaca]

English batters are poor players if spin. It’s not even spinning going straight on. It has some bounce and little bit of pace better than Chennai first test wicket.

[Nikola]

Get 350+ on this pitch and win by innings. 

[rollingstoned]

Pitch is spicy, that has accounted for many of the wickets even with the spinners. Selection doesn't look to have cost us so far.
