A worthy replacement. Really hope Stone plays but at 1-0 up they might favour Woakes ' batting. Yes fingers crossed for Foakes. In most eras he’d have a hatful of caps by now. Just possible they play Stone and the Indians hurriedly prepare a pitch that plays into his hands. Anything could happen Deej 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wistaston Ram Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 India on top now. Can't understand why there is a 15000 crowd in the same ground as the first test. Has India suddenly sorted out COVID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anag Ram Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Justice twice now. Rohit not given stumped then Rahane not given caught. Dismissals soon after in both cases. Deej 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just analysed by a group of droning, humourless ex-cricketers. I miss updates on Bumble's dog! I reckon England will get about 150 when they bat. Might be worth them going on the attack.

For me it's fine. I don't need bells and whistles and I don't need some senile old fart singing Neil Diamond. Perhaps it's just that I hate Neil Diamond.

Yeah, Bumble's my favourite after the dearly departed Richie Benaud who was class personified. Not seen any of the game today so will have to watch it on catch up. Given all the rumblings about the pitch, Indian progress rather ominous. Not a fan of tests that are won or lost on the toss of a coin. Clinging onto the hope that replacing Bumrah with Siraj won't work out, but it probably will. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pitch was really dry at the start which meant that it was always going to break up. Big puffs of dust coming up on a regular basis. Foakes has been brilliant behind the stumps because the ball is turning and lifting alarmingly for a first day pitch. In my view he was robbed of a stumping when the replay showed no part of Rohit’s foot behind the line. The only players who have scored runs did so by playing their shots and I think England may need to do the same. This could be over in three days. Only Stone and Leach have bowled well consistently. Broad and Moeen look rusty and Stokes looks like he’s going through the motions. Best bit of the day was Moeen clean bowling Kohli with a ball so good, Kohli reviewed it!

Comrade 86 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Really good from Olly Stone. Looks a real prospect as called by @Anag Ram. Cleaned up the tail with minimal fuss looking pretty hostile in the process. Not the type of bowler one enjoys facing! Anag Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
