[Cricket] 4th Test v India

[big nuts]

245 to win means it’s probably 50/50 if we get the use of a second new ball.

 

[BensGrandad]

desperately need to break this partnership as the outcome rests on it.

No need to panic.... yet. [emoji23]

Neither look like losing their wicket.

123 for 4. Well done Grandad! Didn't we use to say 123 never wins?

What a test match. No sooner had the game started to swing back to India, England strike back.

One more before tea would be very nice.

Fascinating cricket. You can keep your T20 instant gratification stuff, this is brilliant

With Kohli gone I would give us an 80% chance of winning. The actual statistics before India started to bat in their 4th innings was 2/1 in favour of bowling team.

Thats the one we wanted albeit 40 runs after it should have been. Get Rahane and the rest will fall.

I'll refer you to Post #159. Didn't want that partnership of course.

As you say after Rahane there are a few eager sloggers but nothing else.

Odds or stats ? Odds might (we’re 11/18 now) have been (Kohli factor), but historic stats would show nowhere near that.......rare for a team to chase down 200+, especially away from home.

Terrific session ahead. [emoji16][emoji16]

Hardik gone!

Good catch [emoji16]

I re-read that post and the only problem is that Rahane stayed with him we have now got to just hope that he runs out of partners, or is that tempting fate also

What is the signal for a soft signal from the umpire?

After they call for the TV replay, they’ll give the ‘out’ signal if they think it’s out, then the replays get looked at

So they don't do any sign before they ask for the TV? I thought they might do No joke!

It’s at the same time.....the soft signal is given before the TV replay is looked at.....

Actual stats are 2/1 to the bowling team to win when India started their 4th innings, as per TMS
