India v England - 3rd Test at Calcutta

[larus]

I think England have just about SHADED it today

Just being the key word IMO....

 

[larus]

India 316
England 216/1 (73.0 ov) Stumps
Trott 21
Cook 136.

Not too shabby really.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Fantastic performance again from Cook.

In the Red Tops today Shane Warne poised to make a comeback for The Ashes

I see Albion Roar made it onto the BBC test match text feed. Marvellous scenes indeed.

Life's ambition achieved - to be on the TMS live text page.

No goals left now.

Magnificent by Cook leading from the front, we need to post a massive score now so we can turn the screw on India

 

[Buckley's Mad Eye]

If Cook and Trott can bat on for a bit tomorrow, get us up near 300, then it gives licence to KP and Prior to bat with the freedom that they thrive on. It could be spectacular.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I hope the other batsmen stand up and be counted tomorrow. Cook has been carrying the side in this regard in recent times.

296-1 at lunch. Cook 167, Trott 66. Cook dropped on 152 - an absolute dolly - described as the worst dropped catch ever! Cook's average since the 2010 Ashes is over 70.

Trott is the new Chris Tavare.

Still shocked at hearing that MS Dhoni earned $26.5 million in the last 12 months.

Doing what? Not all from cricket shirley?

Trott out for 87. 338-2

Mainly endorsements

 

[Barrel of Fun]

In 2010 he had at least 17 corporate sponsorships. Only behind some Bollywood superstar for attracting sponsors.

 

[Sompting_Seagull]

Poor way to get out Cook, why did he do that?

 

[KZNSeagull]

Cook out. Run out - got out of the way of a ball thrown straight at him, which h it the stumps but was out of his ground. 190. Well played, sir! Sad end to a brilliant innings though

 

[Beach Hut]

Very poor wicket

 

[KZNSeagull]

381-3 at Tea. KP 29 Bell 3

 

[Buckley's Mad Eye]

How many will we make....550?
