Ballance nowhere near nicking that one . Shocking decision .

Next question which arises may be "when will England declare ?" . Fully expect Bell , Root and the next 2 batsmen to crack on this afternoon , when they get to 450 plus there will be calls for a declaration . If they keep batting today they will possibly have blown an opportunity to give the Indians a torrid time for about 45 minutes .
So expecting hell for leather this afternoon , and a declaration around 5 o'clock , normal conditions and progress expected up to that . |

Sky - funny piece on cricket in state or private schools. They are on a different planet. On my council estate we didn't get too much school cricket. Would have been beaten up for wearing white trousers anyway.

Agree kingmax , but 550 takes them into tomorrow probably . Could be an interesting afternoon .

Cricket being essentially a summer game , school holidays account for 2 months of the 4 ( essentially) when cricket is a core sport in these isles .
Maybe there is a case for special school facilites when the official schools are closed for summer break . |

england wrote the book on ultra conservative cricket

Be amazing if Cook does anything other than a textbook declaration around drinks in the last session after tea. Dhoni could try the bounce for a while soon and hope England implode. Then again if he keeps the scoring tight he can guarantee a draw which he might be quite happy with.

i dnt see a declaration i see cook going for big all out score
|
|
By:
he wont captain long then...............
|
|
By:
yeh I cant see cook declaring 2day, question is do they have the balls to up the rate to 4/5 an over, I think not
|
|
By:
cook to negative and with chance to mount more runs and almost put india out of game cant see declaration
|
|
By:
they could get to 600 by the end of the day if they just had some balls then declare overnight
|
|
By:
agree india wont bowl em out today so go for higher runrate
|
|
By:
they should be upping the run rate and bowling today imho.........530 will do that.....
or are they handing the draw to India no way.............NO WAY..............can England bowl back to back....... |
|
By:
this pitch is so easy they should be 500 already
|
|
By:
safety again draw first win bonus
|
|
By:
pitch easy but india no bowling weapons should be going for 5 plus runrate over if not more
|
|
By:
yeh this is pathetic, just wasting time
|
|
By:
1-0 up they will be truly crushed.....
|
|
By:

all this talk of declarations - we forgot about the potential collapse
|
|
By:
wickets should not even move the market... irrelivent now until india bat/ england declare
|
|
By:
England 25 runs in 45 minutes, very poor management this, should have been looking for a run a minute minimum, doesn't matter if they're 550-5 or 550 all out, no urgency.
|
|
By:
Have to keep checking what day it is...certainly feels as though the match is being played out for a draw on day 5.
|
|
By:
yep and this will haunt chances of winning yet again, playing right into hands of india to at least draw this. ive just layed england
|
|
By:
considering a punt on india here if they hit a good over run rate
|
|
By:
30 MINUTES of dots and ones on the way till 100 up

|
By:
