Get back into the game...and then Ashwin hits another ton and puts us right back out of it again.

I fear you may be right (about the hope). We'll be doing well to get over 80 in the 2nd innings at the rate wickets are falling. There goes Ashwin!

I really think we should bring Archer on to aim at the Indian bowlers fingers.

[RowlattsFox]

Now we've got into this position we need get this done. A lead more than 50 could be big. 

 

Root should have bowled yesterday. 

[trabuch]

I quite admire the attitude of Ishant Sharma. No point in hanging around waiting to get out.

[Bert]

Some game this. Get this last wicket than slow the life out of the game. 

[RowlattsFox]

Great work. Wonder how long the smiles will be there now we have to bat again  

 

Somehow get a 175/200 lead please. 

[StanSP]

What is this

 

Monumental lead in the circumstances

 

Has a test match ever been over in 2 days?! 

[trabuch]

Root is a flat track bully . Reminds me of Harry Kane. And while I'm at it Anderson is in danger of becoming a bit of a Rooney (in that his records are becoming more important than the team).

 

That said well done. Now the real work begins.

England did it against West Indies in 2000. Was great as it meant Gough and Vaughan played for Yorkshire at Grace Road two days later and I got my bat autographed by them! What wasn't so great was them rolling Leicestershire for 53 that day.

Holy shit  

[trabuch]

Attack attack attack! Actually I hope Zak Crawley has given some advice.

Spoke too soon. 

[RonnieTodger]

Hahaha this is chaos

[trabuch]

****'s sake. India having the sense to open with a spinner. I'll bet Anderson opens the bowling for us. If it gets that far. Could well be an innings victory at this rate.

[trabuch]

England should play every shot as if it's going straight on. It's turning so much it would miss the bat anyway if it does turn.

[Bert]

Blimey

The commentator has just tried to say it's the mind and not the wicket that's the issue 😂 feck me pal Joe Root has just taken 5 wickets in 6 overs on the second day you tit

Yes. His cousin is the groundsman (probably)
