Crikey it's hard to get yourself installed as fav for one of these, I've seen comments re a new Indian attacking approach being a factor in the defeat, I don't see it myself, it was just a superb bowling and fielding performance by England in fairly helpful conditions, I think anybody would have struggled to score freely against them. Same venue today, I have no idea if they'll be using the same pitch, but I can't see many people wanting to be on India if they're batting first even if they aren't.

I think the ICC will have to think very hard about this because it will not be worth watching. Maybe TV can wield its biceps because they are the ones who may lose out here!
Would like to see the team batting first get a couple of extra overs, 22 plays 20 !
I think you should be able to pick two sides.
One for batting first and one for batting second
One for batting first and one for batting second
Agree Whispering Death - that's 5 games here in a row on England's winter tour I'd draw the curtains if it was played in my back garden
If only Butler could do this at Test level! Some people think he does but he does not!
Or if you lose the toss, you can make two changes to your side

Less than a year ago Whispers Joss The Boss won a test v Pakistan than should have been lost. Him & Woakes
One out of 40?
Against Pakistan who have to make a living. Stuart Broad made a big hundred against Pakistan too.

his record is not that bad averaging 33(?). it's just you expect more cos of what he does in the white ball stuff. also quite often he comes in and within a few overs we're 7 or 8 down and he's hardly got himself in. has to throw his wicket away far too much. long time since england's tail wagged consistently
What was Foakes average before this tour of India and why was he dropped? How many centuries has Butler made?
I think that gave Archer more pleasure than splattering the stumps!
Wood is a fiend fo sho with that pace and length but Archer is like the Grim reaper.
OMG,
these India youngsters are truly awesome no fear players. I would have both the Bombay Boys and have Shreyas as the Kohli understudy. KL is class but has been at sea against searing pace. I would stick with him for now

think that ball touched the ground between his hands

Is you on India Johnny by any chance?
I'm suprised the market was more influenced by the replays rather then the 3rd umpires commentary.
Possibility we could actually be heading for a competitive match from here
no,actually CS,i had laid his runs u 58.5,u 66.5and u70.5..think i got a bit lucky
the slo-mo invariably muddies the picture rather than clarifying it

Still think Engerland will get this but great to sae we got ourselves a ball game!
Iyer is class!
He is my Lampard though to Gerards Kohli. Don't play both. You need Kishan and Surakumar in the top 4

whoopsy daisy!
Great cricket all round. I love Archer too. Too many writing his Test Obituary!

You beauty. Lumped on a little at the end. need over 183 which is still a big ask
Hardik really struggling against extreme pace. He wants to hit the ball hard rather than use the pace.
That's what I'm talkin'bout. Use the pace of the ball!
If a third umpire can't decide within a fixed time period the on field decision should stand 
Sport is descending into a farce with more time spent analysing decisions than playing.
I blame grid iron football.

Good call but some third umpires might bottle it and not make a decision.

Seconded.
Yeah Eng for me too, I think Ind need movement and wickets with the new ball.
Maiden!
Class bowler. Would like to see him open the bowling in a test Match in England with Bumrah and Shami to come on first change!

Taking a small win on the run lines. Get thee behind me Satan!
Decent win for India getting one of Pandya's overs behind them for two runs.
Poorish start for England. Malan is not a t20 player, I don't care what his average is or where he's ranked by the ICC.
Poor series by Malan, he's looked every inch the journeyman County player rather than the superstar 20/20 batsman that his figures indicate.
I love it how "rock and roll" has become a standard phrase for the 3rd ump
Ball not skidding on tonight yet there is more dew
Bizarre
Bizarre
1 fewer maximums than India with 42 balls remaining
I Get the feeling those of us sat with Ind red have been a lot more stressed about this run chase than England.
England's much vaunted deep batting(we bat all the way down to no.15)getting found out
That will be more than the Cheletenham card today
Cricket is King on Betfair

Eng could sorely have used the services of Boycott and Tavare at the death to get over the line
closer game than it looked liked being..Stokes needs to bat no lower than 4..Malan can drop down a cpl of slots if not even after Morgan

wider than Hattie Jacques
Point of order Mr Speaker!
How old are you Juce or did you see the re-runs?

Hardly an indicator Whispers
I have an interest in performers who were born in 19th century like Al Bowlly
I got into Al because he is on the soundtrack to my fave film of all time The Shining
About Hattie Jaques, interesting lady - very wide as jucel says but that didn't stop her having a string of lovers and cheating on Sergeant Wilson from Dad's Army continuously (or the actor who played him)
Check out Al Bowlly absolutely fantastic, knocks Kanye into a cocked hat

FATTED!
Rohit Sharma NOT Delbert Grady, NOT Jack Torrance

absolutely pathetic overrated dogsh1te bowling..hoes would score 200 off of it
you will not see a more phenomenal catch one handed..dude can't bowl but absolutely incredible fielding
Eng have chased down 225+ twice in T20s both v South Africa both on absolute roads
they ain't playing the choke expert Saffers today
that was a clinic aided and abetted in no small part by some of the most woeful bowling you're ever likely to have the misfortunate to witness
let's see how good this much vaunted batting lineup is..under the cosh from the get go
will either get within 10/15
or fall short by over 40

Hales should be recalled immediately and flash in the pan sent packing. DIRE

Not me on Malan, he has to have an extended run of failures before I call for him to be ousted.
under pressure after a great start,it has to be said,Eng folding like a cheap suit..flat track bullies par excellence
T20 world champions? What a shower of sh1te. Most of the squad have learnt sweet feck all this series. Several haven't even been given a chance and Naz and Atherton talking up Moeen Ali 
Naz is starting to grate on me..totally sycophantic to ANY Eng player,constantly bigging them up to the sky even when,as quite often they are underperforming..Athers nearly as bad..STFU
Fecking like taking candy from babies for these indian bowlers. 17 dot balls in 4 overs against the T20 champions. 
Naz- Athers ....The Indian batsmen take the p1$$ out of our bowlers and their bowlers take the p1$$ out of our batsmen.

did u see that Jordan catch one handed on the boundary..Dessie?
that was very,very special,,fantastic athleticism to reach the ball and easily cling on one handed,stay inside the boundary at the speed he was going,flick it to Roy,mouth agape and wry smile in wonderment,b4 his momentum took him over the rope..awesome

true enuff..Dessie..he played very well today..even better in ODIs imho
Another poor series. How many chances do these cricketers get???
A sixteen year old club cricketer could have been picked to swing the bat like our "opener" did today.

Definitely a better ODI man and our MOM today (which wasn't hard considering the rubbish served up by others). There is no way we are winning that T20 trophy in India.
