England tour of India (4 Tests, 2 T20I, 5 ODI)

[glenferry23]

What have you done dhoni! Brilliant fielding. This looks close

 

[DrVanNostrand]

HAHAHAHA! YESSSSS. Great stuff, Ally. Tata, Dhoni.

 

[frankrizzo]

What was he thinking, still trailing so the 100 should have been a minor issue compared to just getting to stumps with ashwin and then pushing on to a decent lead.

 

[eddiesmith]

Love it, was watching the commentary on cricinfo, was taking a while to update, finally noticed Dhoni disappeared from the batsmen and looked down, run out on 99, brilliant, couldnt happen to a better bloke

 

[The_Reaper]

Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke

 

[DrVanNostrand]

Swanny cleans up Chawla with a peach to end the day. England right back in the driver's seat.

England all but assured of winning the series now. I seriously hope nothing changes with India and they keep getting worse and worse.

 

[glenferry23]

And swann gets chawla. Geez what a game this is turning out to be. Magnificent fightback from dhoni and kohli, dhoni deserved a hundred as well. But then England hit back with 4 late wickets and you'd have to say they're back on top still with a 30 odd lead and only 2 wickets to get

 

[eddiesmith]

Just need to take these last 2 quickly tomorrow and bat sensibly, no need to push for runs or try and set a target, bat to survive, doesnt seem like a hard pitch to survive on

 

[Mateyman]

I wanted this series to end in a draw . It still could.

 

[frankrizzo]

Might end up a nightmare scenario for india, england win the series but dhoni stays as skipper thanks to that knock.

Tendulkar is untouchable so they will basically have to go with the same team for the aussie series.

In isolation the game is too close to call but when you take into account the 2-1 series scoreline that puts england well in front, it's the sort of pitch thats hard to force the pace but you would think if england just wanted to bat out day 4 and bat india out of the game it wouldn't be that challenging for them.

 

[JUBJUB]

Dhoni dragged out going from 98 to 100,so he deserved to be run out for 99 for boring the crap out of viewers

 

[Marshland]

India may negate their trail. They still have Daniel Vet....er.. Ashwin at the crease.

True, it's up to India to force a win here, England in the box seat. India's best chance would be if they can somehow squeeze out another 60-70 runs out of these last 2 wickets, if someone can support ashwin (who really should be batting higher). He reminds me of Laxman the way he works those wrists through the on side.

 

[damochandler]

blinkers will be super glued on now if they get a draw out of this test. fletch is probably the only one to go

 

[frankrizzo]

That first hour from india....dhoni is a pretty clueless skipper but that first wasted hour has the duncan "but we won the 05 ashes" fletcher stamp all over it.

 

[Kakkle]

2 runs from 74 balls from Alastair Cook this match....

 

[woofles]

God knows what Dhoni was doing that first hour

 

[Kakkle]

Very unlucky Cook...

 

[DrVanNostrand]

Cook gets two terrible decisions against him in the one Test **** you, India.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Im seriously hoping Cook has nicked that or else just seriously refuse to play India untill they allow DRS.

Sick of the stranglehold they have over decisions like this.

 

[Simple Jack]

We need to have a massive sook and get rid of the DRS for the ashes. We'll never get Cook out otherwise.

 

[Kakkle]

That was literally the most disgusting delivery I have ever seen, haha.

 

[glenferry23]

Crowd numbers have been pretty good this series

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Dont think either team wants to be out there shocking display for test cricket this match.
