[Cricket] Third Test- India v England- Venue: Sardar Patel Stadium, Ahmedabad 24-28.02.2021

[Pevenseagull]

Roots previous best bowling figure, for a 'part time' spinner a very respectable 4/87

Be pissed off if I had day 4 tickets

Or even Day 3 tickets given our batting against spin

 

[The Wizard]

Ashwin is so annoying.

my wicket.

 

[Eeyore]

Need to get Bumrah before he starts swinging. 50 runs is a big lead here.

 

[zefarelly]

Just been in a short meeting, come out, 3 more wickets gone! Wow.

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

There is a real possibility that India will be batting again today. Can't be many test matches where the 4th innings begins on day 2.

I do remember Test, I think WI v England, where parts of all four innings came on one day.

Will Root finish with a 5 wicket haul.

If he does, he'll be the first England Captain to take a 5-fer since Bob Willis, although to be fair we've not had that many bowling Captains.

 

[Eeyore]

That should put to bed any silly idea of cheating umpires.

 

[Scappa]

Another clear example of the third umpire reaching a decision without following the protocol

[Mackenzie]

It’s a five day game.

As I said earlier brilliant decision to rely on one spinner and Root

Yeah, must be right. Botham got one or two before Willis. Closest since then would have been Flintoff.

Bess offers no more than Root.

Closest (or most recent) since would be last time Root got 4, last time we were in South Africa I think?

Depends on whether you want him to bowl for you or pick your lottery numbers.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Christ!

any chance of us batting the day out?
