[Cricket] England vs India Fifth Test - The Oval

[Tim Over Whelmed]

We should just whack through the lower order and stack on another 50 runs!

Oh, we are, but we forgot the adding 50 bit!

Does anyone else get annoyed with the tiresome constant stats on TMS? I'm not sure if it's meant to be some joke but its taken over.

'227 is the highest batsmen score not claimed in Test Cricket, so another record for Cook if he can do it'

Nope I love the stats. It's been very enjoyable. Stats are a large part of the enjoyment of cricket.

[Uh_huh_him]

I think he’s one of five, who have got centuries in first and last tests.

Yes I heard that, but I think they went on to discuss the fact that he hit a century and a 50 in his first and last tests too.

There will be great ticket sales for tomorrow then ..... unless there's a complete collapse tonight!

 

[Triggaaar]

No ambition trig!

I'm rarely disappointed

Why are we batting for so long? No chance of India getting close to 400 on the 5th day.

I think it was more about keeping the Indians in the field for as long as possible rather than it being about runs. Reckon Root had bowling for an hour and a half tonight in mind rather than a particular run total.

1/2 run chase going well for India

 

[Bold Seagull]

2nd LBW for Jimmy. The clock saves Pujara from an embarrassing review.

 

[Simster]

2/3

christ.

Would've been hilarious. Missing leg and off by a distance

2/3.....may not be any play tomorrow at this rate.

 

[lawros left foot]

Dearly me, 2-3 India are imploding.

Hmm...

Mohit Sehgal: "Badly missing V Sehwag in such a situation, Probably the only player who can think of chasing 464 in such a situation."


As if Sehwag OR ANYONE ELSE would even consider chasing 464 with one day and half a session to bat. FFS what a tit.

 

[BensGrandad]

Lets hope Jimmy can get 2 more wickets.

 

[Easy 10]

Looks like India couldn't give a stuff, they're already in the departure lounge.

They've looked like that all day.

Resistance by Rahul as he has hit 2 boundaries
