2nd Test - England v India

[Barrel of Fun]

I was run out in similar fashion as a schoolboy. The Hayland Trophy semi-final, with a chance to play at The County Ground, within a whisker.

I played a hefty hook. The crowd applauded. The umpire moved to signal the end of the over. The ball was pinged in and my wicket was obliterated with me wandering back to my crease. The wicket stood and we lost by three runs in the end

Totally agree with HKFC. Completely the correct decision by Dhoni and his team mates.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Awful awful bowling from India this first hour. We could declare 600 ahead at this rate.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Silly run out by Broad. Bresnan quickly follows. I would have wanted to bat for another half an hour and stick them in before lunch.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Not really sure what Broad was playing at really.

I'd declare and have a few overs at them if these two stay in, Swann is clearly uncomfortbale anyway.

 

[backson]

Really not sure what we're gaining by leaving the last two in, if they're not going to have a swish. All we're doing is running down the overs to bowl them out.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

That was an anti-climax! All out for 544.

Crazy stuff by Broad overall. Almost a run a ball 60 in the first innings, five wickets for 0 runs and a smash and grab 44 in the second innings. Obviously feeling at home there.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Great time to get Dravid out.

 

[Pavilionaire]

13/2 Laxman cleaned up by Anderson. Only The Little Master stands between India and certain defeat.
