all out then. 245 for india. stokes cleaner upper

378 to win off what looks like 120-130 overs given how few overs have been bowled.

3 an over to win. bit dicey unless theres two centuries in there.

Lees
crawley
Pope

under pressure

Root
bairstow

the runs so far

Stokes
billings

fast scoring but fast out

Broad
leach
potts
anderson

pretty much tail.

this is record chase territory and most likely where this "new" style gets handed its head.
 
Be a hell of a chase to get this one.

Plenty time to do it, just need players to apply themselves now and get a bit of luck.

yes, luck will have th be there cos if they play the big shots the odds will favour the bowling side getting more chances.

there's no need to get themselves run out here in the first 10 overs but it could happen the way they seem to think attacking is.
 
lol lees

its not t20 ffs. you are not chasing 400 in 50 overs either. charging shami.

anything could happen now.

27/0

lees gets 20. crawley on 7.
 
drinks

70/0 after 15.

going at 4.2 an over.

Lees 47, crawley hanging on in as per on 22. crawly has scored shag all in a while so bound to go drive one and get caught.
 
Ironic that Crawley left the ball so much better today… then leaves a straight one <laugh>

Much better though. Play like that more often and will be getting more 50s than 10s
 
Pope goes straight after tea.

now lees forgets to run and is run out <doh>
 
It’s incredible the turn around of the batting in the last 4 matches, especially the second innings when it comes to chasing.

Still work to be done by 119 with 7 wickets left. If JB gets going could knock off 50 off that inside first 6/7 overs tomorrow morning.
