England's Summer of Cricket against Sri Lanka and India

[captainfog]

Re cooks captaincy, I agree with boycott and his comments back up what I've been saying for ages, the bowlers bowled well and the fielders tookntheir catches. When that happens the captain doesn't have much to do. When the team plays well everyone looks better.

Michael Vaughan - Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special
"Don't spread the field to Dhoni for the first three or four overs. Make him play, get him out. Days four and five are when you win a Test match - and when you judge the captain."

6 Hours to get 4 more wickets. We cant **** this up surely?

Moeen has been bowling really well in this test. Hopefully the experiment works. The more he bowls in these sorts of games the better for us.

Also Buttler has been good, 80 runs and 5 catches in the game. Not ready my arse

[EwarWoo]

What on earths happening?

I've not been watching it its not on TV here but I've been watching the score card intermittently.

Forget about it for a day, turn back and Cooks had 2 good innings and made a fairly aggressive declaration? WTF?

Someone gave him his balls back?

[Alex]

Another Wicket for Ali.

I think this is the first time he has looked up to replacing Swann. 3-40 from 19 overs.

[Alex]

...and another.

This pitch is helping, but he looks fantastic out there today

[Alex]

...and another.

He got his Michelle

[Alex]

...and another

We finally win a game

[captainfog]

Moeeeeeeeen!

[Alex]

Looking at Aggers twitter account it seems that Anderson will be ready and waiting at Old Trafford.

[captainfog]

Anderson and Jadeja cleared of any wrong doing. Dhoni looks like a massive bell now.

[Chris]

How did we lose one to these useless ****ers?!

[Zapater]

Hilarious capitulation. Ridiculous decision from Doni to bat first with those overhead conditions. **** though, these Indians are hapless away.

[Vermilion]

India in trouble.

8 for 3.

ANDERSON 2
BROAD 1

[Zapater]

Another!
