India vs England test series

[Alpha1]

May i ask what nationality you are and what team you support Alpha1?

I am from another country ;p....used to support the Aussies long time ago, but got over them after some incidents. Have a lot of respect for Australia no doubt they are the world champions, but yeah. As to who I support well I support anyone that is playing against Australia.

By the way Strauss gone 3rd ball of the innings plump in front. Lots of swing already for Khan.

 

[DoubleO7]

Third ball of the innings Strauss goes for a duck.

[DoubleO7]

Fist ball of the second over Bell goes for 1.

KP batting aggressively as he should.

England on the charge, looks like they will win this test match. Great win for the English coming up.

Better batsman? Like I said post some relevant stats, i'm not a cricket tragic, just a weekend player, KP strikes me as best atm, thats all.

England to win bookmark it.

England to win bookmark it.

Unlikely.

India seem to gone a bit defensive here. Fine if it works, but they don't want to over do it.

 

[Alpha1]

Would be interesting England declare 50 runs behind.

 

[linda]

Well if we lose in the first test at least we can console ourselves in the fact that somethings never change and that is that England are still getting hammered.

Still not bothered about England I see

A bit defensive .The quiker bowlers are about a yard outside off stump and the spinner is bowling outside leg .

 

[Ghostwriter]

Flintoff in form with the bat and ball makes England strong, plus getting rid of pea heart Vaughn has helped too.

 

[Grimwood]

Gautam Gambhir says hello.

Good for him.

Shame at the end .I dont like Pietersen but he was superb today then at the end just missed a straight nothing ball .They should have gone off for bad light before Flintoff got out .I was hoping for a big slog and then try and bowl them out .
At least we have had a go I suppose
