could have been 4 if the 4th slip had been put in earlier.

 

Yes, saw that described on the BBC website

 

Looks like fun.

It also looks like england are being too conservative and need to move the slips in 2 yards.

 

100/4

tough conditions.

england have had a great session here.

 

and now stokes... 100/5

 

****ing two dropped catches inc Kohli on 21

 

The kohli drop was ****ing appalling

 

twaddlesnatches.

 

That drop is proving very costly. Kohli approaching 50

 

Pandya's gone. 148 - 6. We need Kohli asap

 

Kohli dropped by Malan AGAIN

 

that lad.might as well put on an Indian kit.

no runs and helping them score in the field

 

not bad 200/8

kohli benefiting form traitorous catching but the others going down.


Should by rights be "parity" after first innings.

 

How costly will those two dropped catches prove to be

 

ah....

well england have made two match losing mistakes already here.

1. root run out. had this not occured england may well have got 400 and been in a very very strong position
2. Dropped catch on Kohli. This has let a 100 run lead slip to parity and made a strong position that was recovered to into a toss up.


IMO england will "probably" end up losing the match as a result.

 

could have been a lot worst than that.

the tail ender( name?) given out who survived twice but didn't appeal 3rd one when wasn't out.

that could have added a few more runs to their total.

 

What is the Killer for me , in a way , was the stand with the tail ender . 57 runs scored , the tail ender scored 1 .

There is a man who knows how to Defend .

 

Very .

 

I have to say that if so, it's only what they deserve

 

yeah well if one guy stands up for india after a decent bowling performance and totally negates englands efforts to recover so brilliantly and his side then rallies then they deserve to win.

Cook has failed again.
