[Cricket] India v England Test Series

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

Pitch certainly doing more the longer the match goes on. Leach's wicket today was a peach with serious turn. Bess and Leach tomorrow then Anderson reverse swinging an older ball should put us in with a good chance. Archer just isn't bowling enough stump balls for me. Interesting Day 5 on the Agenda.

**fascinating day 5 klaxon**

Bloody 4am alarm klaxon !

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Bloody 4am alarm klaxon !

Make it 5 am and watch on Channel4+1, that's my tactic. Switch back to Channel 4 at lunch and you only miss 20 minutes.

Like that. Alarm duly reset

+1 isn't an HD channel though................I'll just have a nap in the afternoon instead

It’s all opinions isn’t it. You could argue with India completely out of the game you can go ultra attacking if necessary

That was my theory, and it seems to be backed up by the correspondents.

India cannot win and must defend their wickets most of the day. England can keep attacking fields in place.

2 down, beautiful from Leach.

 

[dazzer6666]

Oh Jimmy...........outstanding..........

 

[Scappa]

Wonderful set of deliveries from Anderson - just enough reverse to sneak between bat and pad

 

[The Wizard]

Incredible spell from Anderson, the absolute pure skill of bowling.

 

[The Wizard]

Oh Jimmy.

Stunning, absolutely stunning spell of bowling.

 

[The Wizard]

Woeful umpiring, Sundar hit the cover off that one

117-6

Blimey, didn't expect to wake up to that score!

Watching the C4 highlights, Kohli looks a beaten man.

 

[banjo]

Wow!! Just got back from work and watching highlights. Jimmy

 

[vegster]

Jimmy's two in an over were fabulous deliveries! That off stump took some damage, both through the gate.

 

[Sid in the Sharknado]

Not many things make me regret not waking up at 4am. Great score to wake up to.

Amusing hearing to Indian commentators getting frustrated at Nick Knight refusing to engage in detailed analysis of Pujara's technique.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Needed that.....

 

[jakarta]

Seven down now, Kohli looking even grumpier...

171-7

 

[Guinness Boy]

Start the car. Beauty from Stokes.

 

[Beach Hut]

Kohli not happy about that.

Oh dear, how sad, never mind
