    We pissed it down the drain on the 3rd day. Embarrassing performance really. Bhajji needs a tight slap. He's been woeful in the series so far.

    Think it'll be 2-1 to England.

                I'd say it was on day 2 that India let the initiative slip at 267 for 4 or what ever it was to get bowled out for 280 handed back all the initiative to England.

                India are on the ropes at the minute, they need to re-group and come back fighting in the 3rd test, and right now I can't see them doing enough to win a test. As things stand England are dominating in every area. So far really only Cook and Strauss haven't contributed in the series.

                  Sehwag and Zaheer to come back though - pretty useful players.

                    Definitely.

                    I write from a position of neutrality (I'm Scottish, though I guess I follow England).

                    India haven't shown anything near what they are capable off. Sehwag and Zaheer will make a difference, and India need them to because they are being outplayed just now. I also expect to see Tendulkar make an impact at some stage.

                      England's gameplan changes if they win here though. Two draws and they become world No 1

                        Not sure that playing for a draw always works though. I think the main difference will be in the pitches chosen/prepared; some flat tracks set up for draws probably.

                          I'll be disappointed if England play for draws.

                          World No 1 teams should be looking for the whitewash.
