This is so confusing, if two tail enders can bat this well surely it's a nailed on draw?
|
|
By:
So many chances to back the draw and lay off short. Shame I only did it twice.

P-R-E-S-S-U-R-E does funny things to your mind, arms, and legs.

barring a cataclysmic collapse by Perfidious Albion(not w/out precedent btw) these India openers have killed the game off
what looked like a nailbiting potential denouement is now like witnessing a massive tyre slooowly deflating shame really |

By:
lunchtime dec I assume if they don't get bowled out ?

Oh dear.

Can England declare their fourth innings to avoid any further embarrassment

I suspect Kohl will still want to take 10/15 more minutes out of the game post lunch if he gets the choice.

By:
WD - you must be feeling relieved!
ashley I am feeling like sex with a 20yo! Relief! Phew! Big gamble. I got a four figure green available or let it ride an hope Kohli declares at lunch. One or two quick wickets will set a panic in and a run on India for cover. |

By:
Shami batting like a declaration is coming...
|
|
By:
runline 4 Shami was 5.5
|

By:
maybe Rob, I suppose the fact you don't lose 2 overs if dec at lunch might swing it..
|
|
By:
256 required, max 65 overs to get them, 3.94 per over

By:
pundits proved right..the only way India were ever getting anywhere near this position was contingent on Pant playing in his 'expansive' style!!
|
|
By:
One more over before lunch it is.
259 required, max 64 overs, 4.05 per over |
|
By:
A quite remarkable session, 105 runs for 2,

funny ole game, saint

By:
For all the criticism that will come England's way it has to be said - Well played those two men
|
|
By:
Might aswell open with Butler lol
|
|
By:
Shami's no mug with the bat but that was pretty unreal
just goes to show that bar death and taxes(and everyone been stricken and dying from Covid(allegedly)) nothing is nailed on |

If you think you can read Kohli's mind the innings runs market is for you

I had a big England win red, nearly bailed out, so glad I did not.

By:
kohli wont declare for at least 20 mins into aft session
|
|
By:
Kholi duly chooses to keep England in the field .......
|

By:
totally negative this from Kohli

Just doing what Joe Root likely least wants to happen.
|
|
By:
India clearly playing for a draw. Suits me fine.
|
|
By:
Those still backing England hoping for a couple of those usual silky Sibley cover drives to kick start the chase.
|
|
By:
Playing not to lose, slightly different.
|
|
By:
think Root will enjoy fewer overs to be honest
|
|
By:
Jimmy has seen it all before. Just cash the cheque Jimmy.

By:
Declared, 272 required, 60 overs left.
|
|
By:
270 off 60... feels like a classic natwest trophy game from the 80's
|
|
By:
Well well. India giving us a chance however unlikely. Another 10 minutes with no play.
|
|
By:
It's a MINIMUM of 60 overs with the possibility of India claiming an extra half hour should victory be in sight.
