Call me stupid , but I have a sneaky feeling that India are , slowly but surely , becoming favourites for this match......
If England don't have MINIMUM 250 lead they will not win. they heads will drop before they bowl and they will come out and half arse it. They need something to believe in. Obviously it requires an utterly brilliant performance from Bairstow.
India require 194 to win. Curran top scores with 63. Whatever happens, that young lad's had a great game
Agreed his spell yesterday morning was top notch swing bowling. got the impression he only got out as he hung his bat outside off stump looking for a single to protect Anderson.
180 left.... imo something needs to happen today to put india on the back foot. one player can take this away from england now so there has to be a run of wickets constantly to keep their score down.
It would. He's not making much of a case to be retained for the next Test. 3 dropped catches (maybe more) and not many runs. Will be lucky to survive.
