England [246 & 271] beat India [273 & 184] by 60 runs to take an unassailable 3-1 series lead

[Ab Fan]

Moeen vs Murali/Warne against India.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

This team is all about Kohli. Reminds me of pre 2000 era where Sachin and Lara played with bunch of noobs.

 

[imshally81]

It's a ridiculous time wasting SOP then. You want the game to be quicker, so if it's obviously missing the bat, you shouldn't have to check Ultra Edge.

What about no ball then...?

 

[imshally81]

Ishant gone

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Moeen has bowled stunningly. Can't remember one bad ball. Superb.

 

[volcyz]

Gotta get Rashid on for a token wicket

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Game over.

 

[InziRules]

What about no ball then...?

No ball could be a mistake, yes.

But an edge when it's obviously missed on replay?

 

[the_outsider]

For all his greatness Kohli is no Dravid in tests

Seriously? Over 500 runs in the series already and you're still taking a dig at him?

What can Kohli do if 9 out of 10 the other batsmen fail everytime?

 

[Usman Chadda]

This team is all about Kohli. Reminds me of pre 2000 era where Sachin and Lara played with bunch of noobs.

True. Without Kohli, India was staring at 4-0 here.

 

[Boi]

Damnit pls let Moeen complete his 10fer

 

[khan991]

Moeeennnnn!!!!!!!!

 

[asadee]

I am complimenting Dravid

 

[bujhee kom]

This team is all about Kohli. Reminds me of pre 2000 era where Sachin and Lara played with bunch of noobs.

Bhai WI pre 2000 were still good. Ambrose, Walsh, Adams etc all aided Lara. Once the big men retired, Lara fought a lone battle.

 

[Noman]

This team is all about Kohli. Reminds me of pre 2000 era where Sachin and Lara played with bunch of noobs.

Yes - other are talented - but the Will power is not the same - remember dravid, sehwag, yuvi, ganguly, harbinder singh had the Will . This Indian team is talented, but the believe i only see in kholi eyes

 

[Arham_PakFan]

against the run of play.Good start by H
Shami.

Moeen is back to bowl,against Ashwin.

 

[IMMY69]

The way the first three innings went England were always favourite once they got the lead to over 200/220...

Surely no sane person would have backed India to win this game before the start of today’s play??

 

[bujhee kom]

True. Without Kohli, India was staring at 4-0 here.

1 man band away.

 

[Justcrazy]

two wickets left now

 

[imshally81]

Only 87 runs required...

 

[Justcrazy]

Shami hits a boundary

 

[Bilal7]

England were dumb to not play Moeen in the first three tests. He's arguably their best player at home and in Asia.

 

[the_outsider]

I am complimenting Dravid

Yes but to pick out Kohli seems very unfair.

 

[bujhee kom]

England were dumb to not play Moeen in the first three tests. He's arguably their best player at home and in Asia.

Very useful cricketer. Good bowling option in the context of England's attack and a useful batsman.

 

[Maverick84]

This is India’s worst batting team I have seen in a long time! Apart from Kohli who’s class everyone else is very oridinary.

 

[the_outsider]

England were dumb to not play Moeen in the first three tests. He's arguably their best player at home and in Asia.

He's done very poorly in India and Australia.

He's been very good at home though.

 

[Bilal7]

Even if India don't win this game, I really want Pandya to lay into Moeen here. Just every now and then hit him down the ground.

Surely Moeen can't turn this into a 10-fer?

 

[kuskash]

England were dumb to not play Moeen in the first three tests. He's arguably their best player at home and in Asia.

Welcome Bilalbhai, we missed you when India was doing well.

 

[volcyz]

He's done very poorly in India and Australia.

He's been very good at home though.

No one apart from maharaj has done well in Australia recently

 

[MenInG]

This team is all about Kohli. Reminds me of pre 2000 era where Sachin and Lara played with bunch of noobs.

I now understand the issue with the India Asia Cup squad

 

[Justcrazy]

Its improbable but not impossible , funny things have happened in cricket

 

[Big Mac]

Well that wasn't very clever

 

[Justcrazy]

nine down

 

[Bilal7]

He's done very poorly in India and Australia.

He's been very good at home though.

Two centuries in his first tour of India. How many have the likes of Bell, Trott, Stokes, Buttler, etc managed?

 

[Justcrazy]

Poor thinking , there was no need for charge.

 

[Asif321]

Shouldn’t have lost this game all stupid from India plus kohlis captaincy

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Moeen gets another wicket!England just one wicket away from victory and Moeen one away from a five-fer in this innings and a ten-fer

 

[Sam99]

Poor thinking , there was no need for charge.

you really feel we can win or draw from here?

 

[Bilal7]

Lol, 9 wickets for Moeen in his first game back. How many has Ashwin managed in the series thus far?

 

[Oligochaetes]

I wonder what spin freelance will give in his humiliate England thread....lol.. he claims to never be wrong too

 

[MMHS]

Mo MoM

 

[Justcrazy]

80 runs required , One wicket in hand

 

[imshally81]

Pak did well in England...

 

[Saurav]

Ashwin needs to watch Moeen bowl

 

[Justcrazy]

you really feel we can win or draw from here?

There is always a chance , you have to play for win.

 

[mkyawar]

I hope england do not spread the field and treat ashwin like bradman for gods sake

 

[Justcrazy]

Will Moeen get a 10 fer here

 

[shaaik]

Btw, irrelevant to this, why in the world do you need to see ultra edge when it's obviously missing?

Review failed, he's gone.

A Protocol the 3rd umpire has to follow.

 

[bujhee kom]

Pak did well in England...

Fluke. Same as in 2016.

 

[Justcrazy]

ashwin

 

[MMHS]

Ashwin had been a big disappointment in this Test - on this track, he bowled really poor in 2nd innings.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Very unlucky there!

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Ashwin is brainless )

Somehow fooled the world to think he is intelligent.

Scoop..... Lol.

 

[InziRules]

A Protocol the 3rd umpire has to follow.

And I'm questioning the protocol, it's unneeded

 

[Justcrazy]

Curran brought in to finish things

 

[Justcrazy]

Bumrah survives the over .

 

[mkyawar]

should have brought back broad. Curran will not trouble with this pace

 

[Napa]

Bumrah batting well. However only 70 runs left to score, so not enough for Ashwin to get his century, pity!

 

[shaaik]

And I'm questioning the protocol, it's unneeded

not denying that its useless...

 

[the_outsider]

Ashwin is brainless )

Somehow fooled the world to think he is intelligent.

Scoop..... Lol.

He is not brainless. Whatever faults he may have, lack of intelligence is not one of them.

 

[mkyawar]

this is getting annoying. get back either broad or anderson

 

[Justcrazy]

Ashwin

 

[Madplayer]

Ashwin winning it for India.

 

[mkyawar]

get your senior bowlers on root you fool. Broad and anderson both well well to tailenders

 

[Saurav]

Ashwin is brainless )

Somehow fooled the world to think he is intelligent.

Scoop..... Lol.

Sorry to say but he lost the match for us here.Moeen way better just by keeping it simple

Need to see what Jaddu can do in dead rubber

 

[Oligochaetes]

I want SHAW for the next test. I don't care if he scores 0 and 0. I wanna see him

 

[Napa]

He is not brainless. Whatever faults he may have, lack of intelligence is not one of them.

I agree. I would hesitate to call ANY Tambram brainless, even if everyone else said so.

 

[Justcrazy]

Ashwin maybe injured

 

[shaaik]

Ashwin maybe injured

they would need him in oval desperately ...

 

[Big Mac]

I thought that was going down leg tbh

 

[Justcrazy]

Ashwin gone

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

He is not brainless. Whatever faults he may have, lack of intelligence is not one of them.

He is intelligent in conventional sense.

But he's the best example of too much of anything is poison.

If he doesn't learn even after this fiasco, then God help him.

Sad to see an honest trier and a champion bowler destroy his hard earned reputation in one day.

Injury and his experimentation is to blame. He cant control the former but he can control the latter.

Keeping it simple is a lesson he never learn and ultimately paid the price.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Game Over.

Series win for England.

 

[Madplayer]

Will need to look at the reply of this lbw. Going down leg me thinl

 

[bujhee kom]

Delightful.

 

[Madplayer]

Will need to look at the reply of this lbw. Going down leg me thinks

 

[Justcrazy]

England win the test and series as well

 

[bujhee kom]

Game Over.

Series win for England.

India have still dominated according to the 'Dr'.

 

[Adijazz1706]

That was surely not out, Ashwin unlucky there. His bowling might have been ineffective but he's a better bat than Pandya imo

 

[JaDed]

Congratulations to England, top by performance by Moen and Curran
