Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 8, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 8, 2021 Not sure why they batted on so long and at a relatively sedate pace. Any, done now- a big job on tomorrow. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there will be enough wicket-taking balls to get us home. nip and tick, though. Then it starts again, in Chennai again, early Saturday.

Remember Botham commenting on a very similar situation a few years back. Think it was in the West Indies, but not sure. He reckoned they'd left the declaration too long: the opposition were 9 down at the close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather that than losing KP was tweeting that Root had waited too long. Time will tell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted February 8, 2021 Moderators Share Posted February 8, 2021 Every ex captain accuses their successor of leaving the declaration too late This is the best batting line up in the world and theyve got Pant I think its beyond them but losing from here would be a killer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter desperado Posted February 9, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2021 All the fuss about when/if to declare well and truly put to bed. Batters and bowlers all playing their part in a fantastic victory. India will come back stronger. No Butler next game is there? And talk of Broad coming back in, so a different England team, this will be a very good test of our squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens if a six lands in the stand, about a dozen of them scrabble around for it as they want to be the one that throws it back? Disinfect the ball before carrying on? Seems a bit bonkers, considering the players themselves can't shine the ball with body fluid any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
