[CSK Fan]

-150, which means India wins

While everyone is talking about Cook and Pietersen....we need to remember that Bell and Trott havent fired in this series so far.....are they p*** poor in these condditions?yes but are we great at making legends out of p*** poor players?double yes. Not to forget our eternal boogeyman Prior and Motu who doesn't look completely out of place while batting... Also we need to keep up our tradition of creating a new legend out of a debutant...here is where compton comes in

England have got our number guys.. Its all psychological from now on

Time for Dhobi to focus on Bengaluru pitch and the pitch curator... :giggle:

When i read the title i thought this was a KT thread.

This pitch is not as flat as other eden garden pitches.There is a brownish look to the pitch which suggests there is some moisture and due to winter there will always be nip in the air.The ball is also reversing which is great for zak and ojha has troubled every english batsman.

We have not lost at eden gardens for a decade now.We have Managed incredible comebacks Like 2001 and even against SA in 2010 .SA Were 200-1. Dhoni has done well at Eden gardens so he will score some runs tomm somehow and Zaheer and ishant and spinners will do the job for us.:two_thumbs_up:

I agree...

Changes for final test It may seem too early and I still believe we can win this test match but what changes would you make? We need to give ourselves the best chance for final test. For me: Drop Kohli for Tiwary Drop UV for Rohit/Rahane Possibly drop Ashwin and Ishant based on how they bowl in this match. Maybe try Pankaj and Jaddu as specialist spinner. He did trouble England before albeit in ODI's and has been bowling well on benign tracks. N.B-I believe Kohli will make it as a test cricketer but we need to think of the final test, not the future. Choose the best team and all that..

Drop Ashwin and bring Jaddu as spinner. :blink:

[Sachin=GOD]

not even the first innings of this test has finished and you are talking about changes for the next match :facepalm:

Sreesanth is not yet fit :(

If you actually read my post it's clear I am emphasising that this is not a knee jerk reaction. The way I see it both Kohli and UV have had plenty of time to make an impact at crucial match points and both failed throughout the series.

Strengthen batting and boy do we need it. No point trying Mishra, Chawla.. Jaddu flights it well with good turn and I think he could make an impact.

[NareshK]

Too soon. :orderorder:

[Eternal Atma]

Too soon. :orderorder:

Not really. Kohli and UV should be dropped regardless of second innings.

Sreesanth is not yet fit :(

A thoroughbred Kannadiga would say "Sreesanthge fitness koDOdu onde, gomateshwaranige chaddi wolsOdu onde." Rough translation: "Trying to get Sreesanth fit to play is as futile as trying to tailor an undergarment for Gomateshwara." PS: You may have to look up "Gomateshwara".

[Eternal Atma]

Sreesanth is not yet fit :(

I think he is our best seamer and when Lillee mentioned the importance of a go to man who can shift gears, he came to my mind. Any news on his fitnesss? He has had it tough with so many ops on his feet.
