Ive actually thought the comms had been ok but WTF are they talking about now.
England in India 2021
- Thread starter TheGame
- Start date
Right we are winning this. 535 all out. Come on
England will be delighted with how the pitch is starting to play.
It looks alright to me.
Not sure we can claim the pitch on many of those. A little bit of reverse maybe.
Not so much the wickets, but it's starting to spin and bounce has started to get a bit uneven.
Jofra should be number 11.
I know he smashes it in the IPL but he's been consistently shite with the bat for England .

Those 15 runs are making a big difference
Plus we are bowling you out. Momentum, as my man Shastri would say.Yes!! He's been awful. Has he got one decent score?
Averaging 8. There was talk of him as a future all rounder at one point. Dreadful so far.
Surely India should get Bummers back on now.
Apparently he scored some runs vs New Zealand (20 or 30). I thought he could become a genuine all-rounder when he first came into the team (he still might) but he's a bunny.
Got 30 once.
His top test score is 30 so I suppose that's a decent score. That's about it though.
But other than that he just looks a classic old fashioned number 11, ie not very good.
Which is fine, but I just remember before his debut everyone kept talking how he could bat a bit and he was dangerous with the bat and all that. I expected so much more

He's going to end up like Darren Gough, capable of smacking it and making you think that there is a batsman there but still ending up averaging 12.
Not for England, in CC he has 6 50’s and averages close to 30
England with the 10th all-time highest test score on this pitch currently.
What are they saying about Bess? Can anyone translate?
Ashwin was asking him for tips. A huge fan apparently.
Umpiring has been good.
feck sake Rohit
feck sake Rohit
What a drop!!!!
Stokes’ face then
Ben Stokes face sums that up nicely.
Rohit doesn’t want to bat tonight
Denly style drop
Inexplicable drop.
Where did that come from Jack Leach
I can't believe after his 90 odd @ Lord's vs Ireland and his hand in Headingley that Leach bats below Archer .
.Yet another no ball
Get used to it with the new system.
Whilst I agree Archer can't bat he got a really good ball today.
Get 775 and bowl England out for 150 on a final
Day minefield. Easy game.
Day minefield. Easy game.
Just keep India out there bowling and we'll no ball our way to 600.
You just need someone to make a quick triple hundred ala 2016 and its game on.
Yeah was thinking the same. Leach looks like he could bat at 9 easily.I can't believe after his 90 odd @ Lord's vs Ireland and his hand in Headingley that Leach bats below Archer
No, the margin of error from umpires can’t be that much. Poor discipline from the bowlers.
Cricket is brutal. Wait 2 whole days to bat and you get a jaffer first up.
Think we'll see loads of no-balls for the next few months, then bowlers will adjust and they'll just go out of the game hopefully.
Bess is really handy with the bat.
Might end up being like Steve Smith* gets in as a spinner but eventually he's just a good batsman and that's how he stays in the team.
*obviously won't be as good as Smith.
