    So India need 338 to win. It's a lot but I wouldn't put it past them...

    It's possible but I would much rather be England right now.

    Great to see us go back to our attacking instincts.

    Did Ganguly just say “Only wickets will save England”?

    He did
    I think he meant wickets will guarantee it being easy for England

    Cheers DBT. I thought i must have misheard. Bowlers are playing a blinder. Although India bowled well after 30 overs..

    There’s another anyway. I think that may have saved us. Save the rest of the wicket taking for NZ.

    It’s gotta be a walk in the park from here.


















    So why can’t I believe that?

    He also just said that, with 64 needed off 26 balls, ‘singles will not be enough for India’

    Is he pissed?

    It was out of sight by 40 overs really barring a slogfest. India still were only scoring at 6 an over from that point forward.

    Now their chance has gone.

    The way Dhoni's playing it's almost as though he wants England to win.

    Is Dhoni losing the strength in his right arm because he injured his left hand thumb?

    Jonathan Agnew’s just said that he thinks M S Dhoni should start swinging.


    It’s an idea I suppose, but it’d probably be more sensible to keep his mind on the cricket.

    A bit of me wondered how much they wanted to win towards the end.... Knowing this could knock Pakistan out.

    I know it's unlikely but I just couldn't explain the last five overs of the Indian innings.

    He was right though wasn't he ? 64 is definitely more than 26
