Kohli dropped twice in the slips in consecutive balls. Would usually say hope we don't pay for it, but tbh India are finding it hard to score.

Blooming reviews....we'd have been back in the pavilion by now if we relied on the Umpire....though we did get one given on appeal. Mmmm.
I said that we wouldn't necessarily regret dropping Kohli twice and failing to run him out....well I was wrong. He is now approaching his hundred....the only India player to put on any kind of score.
Kohli on 101

Call me stupid , but I have a sneaky feeling that India are , slowly but surely , becoming favourites for this match......
I do love seeing a classy spinner. Pity India didn´t pick two as most of England´s batsmen struggle against high class spin. Anyhow if England pull this out of the bag, I hope it is not down to Stokes getting wickets. Rather it is Curran.
Broad out 176-9 (lead of 189). Shame as Curran needs support. Needed 250 really to stand any chance.
As the current second best bowler in the world, Anderson being the best?
In the seam department, certainly. Ashwin is also up there, along with a plethora of Pakistaní spinners. What this current test match is proving is that at the moment, there isn´t a standout test team as India normally beat England in the sub-continent, while England have the upper hand at home.
While I must admire Broad´s range and ability, he does seem a cocky individual, and was certanly no friend of KP. In fact many in that dressing-room ganged up on KP.
Mostly because KP, while being a brilliant batsman, wasn’t a team player and was a total cock.
Yep, KP was unique in being hated by South Africans and his England team-mates alike....
Hopes were high beforehand for a cracking series, and this first test certainly hasn't disappointed.
