Good article about the Indian team and the views about them overstepping the market on the bbc website. 

 

Appears I'm not the only one who thinks they take it too far - even kohlis own supporters do

Holy fvck

 

 

What a grab. 

[Voll Blau]

Woakes is back! 

[StanSP]

Robinson has impressed me this series. 

[Voll Blau]

Fair play to India for successfully implementing a lunchwatchman tactic.

[Duquesne Whistle]

What a difference when Woakes is in the side on home soil. Robinson and Anderson are both very accurate and Woakes at first change must be a nightmare for batsmen on a day like this. Should be the 3rd name on the teamsheet at home, when he's fit, after Anderson and Root. Perfect conditions for him, but he really has taken advantage. Pleased for the bloke, he's had a nightmare with injuries.

If the fielder had put his hand over the rope as he landed, would that have been a 6?

 

Edit for clarity: The hand without the ball in I mean.

You already getting the feeling this test is going one way.

 

Good to see the wickets being shared around .

[Goober]

Great to see Woakes back. Consistent and absolutely brilliant in all formats.

[RowlattsFox]

Pathetic in this situation from Pant. 

[Corky]

These Indian first innings efforts in the last two Tests would make Leicestershire look across disapprovingly.

[Corky]

And now we're bowling at the tail like Leicestershire.

[Jimmy]

need to get Thakur out now!

[RowlattsFox]

There is always one ain't there 

[Guest Chocolate Teapot]

What a knock this is.

[StanSP]

Pant-esque from Thakur. Makes the score look somewhat decent.

Yep, if the ball is in contact with the player as the hand touched beyond the rope, it still counts as a six. 

[Guest Chocolate Teapot]

Nothing funnier on a cricket field than a dropped catch followed by a run out.

 

Total chaos. Love it.

[Jimmy]

191 all out, tricky time now for England's openers

Edited 2 September 2021 by Jimmy

[Raj]

England will be all out for 90!!!😎🙄

[StanSP]

Who had Thakur highest scorer then

 

[RowlattsFox]

Great bowling performance. Too good because now the openers have to go out for an hour  although at least the suns out.
