Root 5/8 in 6.2 overs. Wowzers!

33 runs isn't much. But this isn't a normal game.

It's better than watching each team score 500+ and then end up in draw.

Agree about roads, but i think tests should at least get into the third session of day three.

This is becoming a farce?

 

[Whright]

WTF....... is happening here

 

[Whright]

Looks like the only option here is to run down the pitch and hit the ball before it lands, and pray you you don’t miss it and get stumped

When Joe Root can take 5/8 in 6 overs, then you know you have yourself a world class test wicket. Congrats India!

No Jokes, i reckon if Archer, Broad and Anderson try and bowl spin they will get more wickets on this pitch.

I reckon fast bowlers just enjoy a holiday when touring India. Start the test, bowl 5 overs, then go spend the rest of the innings down at fine leg. Happy days!

Snicko is such dodgy tech... when used without hot spot...

 

[sand_man]

If 2020 was a test match

 

[sand_man]

Stokes should have reviewed man!!

Where's the replay?

Umpires call. F uck me but the 50/50's aren't going England's way....

 

[sand_man]

Root out!!! Good grief!! That was plumb!

 

[sand_man]

A test pitch like this any where else in the world and the ICC would be all over it. India get away with so much s hit! Money talks...

 

[sand_man]

This test is going to be done in 2 days!!!! WTF?!!!

 

[sand_man]

sums it up nicely....

Quotas? Apparently there have to be at least two non spinning bowlers in the Indian team...
