Re: india vs england
A little disappointed we didnt do a bit better today, thought we could have at least set them a target around 150 and put a bit of pressure on after tea but at least it isnt an innings defeat! We have to stop losing stupid wickets, did you see Swann? What was he doing? Positives from Cook and Prior though and surely the rest can't get much worse

Re: india vs england
Ya swanns reverse sweep was terrible they sould have got at least 400 1st inns on that wicket see broad and botham are having a row on twitter
Broad>> And before u listen to too many ex playing 'experts' being negative, ask them if they ever won a Test series in India....#28years
botham>> Didn't average 40+ with the ball overseas...! Not sure what I scored against India with the bat..? #justsaying

Re: india vs england
Yeah just read about it then, Beefy would rip him to pieces! There not even close in class, Broad is decent but hes not in the same league as Botham!
We can come back strong though, we had a guy opening the batting with Cook for the first (or one of the first) times in a place like India and that can't be easy, and the decision in the first to put a night watchman in was shocking! Trott and KP have to turn up though, bit of a blow for Bell to be coming home for the 2nd test though but gives Bairstow a chance
No point being negative, we have to try and come back and win the series, it isnt impossible!

Re: india vs england
Have to finish the job and quickly tomorrow, no taking it easy!
India and their fans need confidence and momentum and we can snatch that straight from them, this will hurt them a lot more than the 1st test hurt us!
Time to get rid of Broad for me though, does nothing at all! Monty and Swann were brilliant!

Re: india vs england
An uncharacteristic easy mop up for England- Brilliant!! Extra bowler needed for next test Bresnan back in, He's a better batsman than most

Re: india vs england
cooky was on for 300 there schoolboy error but another excellent knock he is just a run machine hate to think what he will do to the NZ attack so impressive 87 lead at moment kp going well need him to kick on and get us up to 600
i can only see 2 1 right now unless we see the dreaded collapse
i really have no idea what patel is doing in this team he hardly bowls he does nothing for the fielding team
he is never a top 6 batsman maybe he will prove me wrong and bash a ton
