[Cricket] ***England v India, 1st LV=Insurance Test Match, Trent Bridge***

[Eeyore]

How old is Robinson ?

27. And I reckon he's missed out on a couple of good years in Test cricket.

 

[Gwylan]

Yet, won by two wickets.

Amazing - Sussex have won a game that's not 20/20

There was some brainless cricket being played though - they wanted to score at about five an over off the last 10, all that was needed was to push the odd single but the batters kept going for the Hollywood finish and getting out.

Head kept his, er, head and managed to see us home

And well done Ali Orr, followed his ton in the CC with another here, he's going to be a decent player

Morning everyone. Here we go......

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Good start

 

[pasty]

-49/2

 

[HantsSeagull]

christ our top order batting is woeful

 

[jakarta]

Root vs India...

 

[pasty]

lbw review on Sibley.......


Good review. Not out

 

[jakarta]

Sibley isn't really up to this Test Cricket stuff is he?

 

[pasty]

Scores level

Eng 0/2

 

[pasty]

Root vs India...

Root 50

 

[jakarta]

119-2 at Lunch, 24 lead but another 160-170 runs and India will not fancy the chase. All depends on Root of course.

 

[pasty]

Great catch by Pant to get rid of Sibley

Sibley c Pant b Bumrah 28

Eng 135/3 lead by 40

 

[jakarta]

171-3, if Bairstow gets his eye in it could get out of India's control, still in the balance at effectively 76-3 but a fair bit of batting to come...

 

[dazzer6666]

Bairstow you TIT

 

[jakarta]

Dozy shot, played yourself in at 30, why bother with a short ball?

 

[jakarta]

100 lead, get to 200 lead and it's game on.

 

[Is it PotG?]

8/15 the draw, changeable weather tomorrow.

 

[maltaseagull]

Lawrence has to go now. Clearly not good enough at this level. Australia will destroy him every innings.

 

[jakarta]

Root 96 Not Out at Tiffin.

He has gone past 3 all timers (Laxman/Inzamam/Javiad Miandad) and is closing on Graham Gooch.
