Smith and stokes have same number of hundreds in england bro. Stokes was behind before this innings. Also how is scoring heavy runs in first innings called flat track bully?

Better talent at same age but he is inexperienced. England will attack him alot that's for sure. They gave respect to lyon and cummins in this series.

 

that'll give him opportunities. He generates bounce

Hard for guys like StokesPant to suddenly slow down once they set themselves in motion. Hit 9 sixes until then. But Pant goes aerial only against Lyon. Against seamers he plays down the ground.

 

yeah do the hard part. 

 

Pant is very calculative. Even Sehwag used to play smartly in such situations.

It just shows 371 are lot of runs. Indian bowlers bowled without any plan, they made 371 look like 171 without any control on runrate giving so many freebies to both Root and Johnny.

 

All they had to do was dry them boundaries and game was there to be taken.

Starc smashed Anderson's head..

 

 

I think old man is going to retire at the end of this series. The wickets they have served to accomodate Bazball just made sure of that.

NZ got whitewashed 3-0 before that series too. Did Williamson as captain make poor calls and plan? England is making pitches which helps you chase big total and bazball works in such situation.

Did they chase 378, any chase over 350 in 4th innings is on bowling team. You need to just shut out boundaries like Aussies did after lunch then there will be no bazball.It is not easy to score runs when you have field spread all over to prevent boundaries.

 

You need to take chance to score runs in that scenario. Indians kept field up and kept leaking boundaries to score 376 in 76.4 was idiotic and brainless bowling of highest order.

 

Since when Williamson became a great captain.
