What's new

England (465 & 373/5) cruise to a comfortable 5-wicket win over India (471 & 364) in the opening Test of the series

I knew Crawley will throw it...Pope doesn't have a good record in 4th Innings...Stokes has a reputation for 4th Innings...But Root needs to step up today like that 376 chase day
 
Another wicket...horeya horeya horeya

Where is @Cpt. Rishwat ...no longer rhyming and bringing Hindutvas anymore?

I was not following the game...now watching live and 2 wickets gone. Rajdeep arrived on scene boys

:rp
 
At least we are not going to be losing by 10 wickets defending 371

Great success.
Let’s make Shubhman Gill the next Modi
 
No help for any spinner here, Jadeja should focus on just keeping the run rate down.

Prasidh needs to take one more wicket and then onus will be on Bumrah.

Playing Shardul was definitely the wrong move here, but yeah it’s hindsight.
 
Indian batsmen are also to be blamed, you can't bundle out soon (in both the innings) after being in a dominant position on flat-pitches... You should out-bat and score 600+
 
Indian typical choke mentality returning. This is what happens when you inherit king's title of Prince
 
If this pitch is a sign of whats ahead then this series is gonna be a batting showdown, in that case we need Reddy over Nair and Sundar over Jadeja, also Thakur needs to go.
 
We honestly deserve to lose this.

Forget the 5 centuries, test cricket is about perseverance and team effort. Not about individual brilliance’s.

We lost 13 wickets for 70 runs in this test match and dropped countless catches. It’s pathetic cricket.

Also, take the 5 centuries with a pinch of salt. It’s a flat surface and not the kind of surfaces which broke Virat Kohli’s career.
 
Lol india got two wickets and Indians came crawling from their caves.
They think India is gonna win. Hahahah
 
Sorry to say, a poor start to Gill’s on field captaincy. No personality. No aggression. Not liking this at all.

You guys should have listened to me. I told you those centuries are worth jiggly jack

Also they should treat this English Team differently (they can activate Bazball any time). So you should always bat them out, bat as long as possible, score more than 500, 600... Scoring just 300, 400 is crime...
 
Bro bumrah got exposed big time in 4th innings even last time when england chased he couldn't do anything vs them
He's a fantastic bowler but these morons dont listen to me. That's the issue with @Devadwal and @uppercut , they think they know more then everyone despite everyone acknowledging them as the weakest posters in the forumn.
 
If at all England lose from here, it would be considered a choke

90% certain they’re winning
 
The only explanation for this weird match could be that Sachin doesn’t want to marry off Sara to Shubhman Gill and he’s convinced the team to revolt against Gill by dropping a test they would have won by ease.
 
I think sajid on this pitch would have been more impactful than jadeja
Jadeja
Lyon

They both are past it

I cant believe the most populated country still thinks jadeja and thakur are their best all rounders??

Hamaray clubs mn thakur jese bowlers practice kra rhy hty. He is a nothing bowler. Infact he is poor mans sohail khan
 
India all out of options.

They have exhausted bumrah, Krishna, siraj.

They have jadeja and thakur 🤣🤣.

Brutal beat down this test
