Raina just misses a perfectly straight ball.

What's Mishra like as a batsman?

Good on flat pitches. I don't think he is gonna survive much here though.

That was a gift by Laxman btw. It's like watching the old England play against the Legendary Aussies.
 
Mishra gone, will be interesting to see if it shows up on hotspot.

He'll come back, usually players don't just fall off a cliff, there's a gradual decline. He's been playing so well until recently I just think that this is poor form.

Strauss on the other hand....

Even in good form, I thought Sachin wouldn't play more than 8-12 months consideringh is age. If his poor form extends even a bit, age is not on his side.
 
Good toss to lose. Otherwise I'd have sat watching all 5 days and been gutted at the end of day 4 after realizing we're a bit shite. Much better knowing the result on day 1
 
In other news, Clarke had Ponting fielding at short leg..
 
England's bowling attack is frightening these days. Swann, Broad and Anderson are world class. Tremlett's on the ICC cricketer of the year shortlist too, and Bresnan isn't far off him.
 
Think the pitch is just that flat... our batsmen just went out to really poor shots.
 
The Indians have now officially made a game of it.

How long before you capitulate again?
 
The pitch is flat, England will score more than five hundred plus.
 
Really tempted to bet on Cook to score a ton, can imagine him grinding it out on this.
 
Well India are in the game, but this pitch looks like it has runs in it, so India will need to bowl alot better than they have so far in the series and bowl out our tail...
 
Am going for a mates bday so he said it was 50 quid but lords was selling out for like 20 on the last day? so there must be cheaper tickets maybe.

Lords was £80 minimum first 4 days I think, at least that was the price of the ticket I got on day 4.
 
As I said nothing in the pitch for the bowlers. England will score more than 500.
