Blew that match yesterday when we was in control of it

 

The same as we did in the previous Test. We were in the box seat in both but didn't take control of them and ultimately lost both. When your in these positions especially in India you have to put your foot on the oppositions throat ! There have been some unexpected finds on this tour, especially the 2 young spinners but it has been a huge chance missed, with India missing so many key players

 

Runs for Crawley again this morning, currently 79 not out of England's 137-2. He's had an excellent series.

 

Got him out next ball!

 

You put the kibbosh on him.

 

Yep.

 

Another collapse.

 

A beautiful setting for the game, though.

 

That’s a sorry looking scoreboard apart from Crawley’s Knock

 

That's a spectacular collapse even by England standards........

India pushing on at 4 an over 57/0 off 13.....

 

Oh dear.

 

Oh Jimmy Jimmy !!!!! 700 test match wickets !! ****ing phenomenal. No pace bowler is ever gonna get near that milestone again, and he's still going lol. England's greatest, and one of the greatest of all time, unbelievable bowler

 

England absolutely pathetic in the last 2 matches.

 

We clearly don't want to be there.
Outclassed by an Indian team with players missing.

 

….. and the Aussies beat the Kiwis.

 

without cheating this time

 

Jimmy Anderson to retire from international cricket after the first Test v West Indies this summer, bowing out at Lords.

Brilliant, nice one Jimmy. And the fact that he is apparently guaranteed a place in the team for this match, regardless of form or competition for places, is a perfect testament to the sentimentality of cricket.

Love it.

 

Nice one, I'll be there for that.

 

Anyone watching the t20 World Cup? USA currently have a good chance to beat Pakistan they need 84 from the last 10 overs.

 

USA struggling to get the runs now.
Need 15 from the last over.
