Bye bye Jonny, good innings, he needed that after his pathetic bleat about critics and pitches the other day. Still plenty of work to be done here, but lots of wickets and big hitters in hand. 350 minimum target from here.
Mmm......207-3 now. Morgan gone. Tendalker reckoned around 320 would be par on this wicket. England need to bat sensibly now. Root must bat through and let the others hit the bad balls. 16 overs left. Get Buttler in for the last 8 or so. After that start we must get over 330!
Amazing how things turn round. A little while ago it was all sunshine and butterflies, now I have virtually given up. Hopefully the England team aren’t as lily livered as me.
337. I think we'd all have taken that before the game. I thought Buttler threw his wicket away when he could have pushed us over 350. What a difference Roy makes!! Must bowl well on a good strip and a very short boundary on one side.
Yep. With a good pitch and one short boundary, that score may only be a little above par. Mind you, it's a tough ask!
Great start, get Rohit and Kohli before they have 100 on the board and we can breathe out ......a bit. Just seen on the Beeb that Kohli’s average at Edgbaston is 243. He has only been dismissed once in 5 innings there.
