dhoni should take the new ball and throw it at shami and kumar. Who knows maybe they will get a few.
 
Oh come on. whats going on. Kumar was treated like tanvir there. :P :P

This broad is reminding of the 169 run making broad in 2010.
 
Just whack Broad with a short bouncer on the head and throw a vicious sledge.

At the very least that should change things even if he's still there.

Broad has completely turned the game around and India don't have answer....This will now end up as a draw or better England might sneak up a win if they bat at the same pace.
 
Comical running but india missed a run out. What a pathetic throw that was. Should have been hitting the stumps.

Are you serious ? Still India leads by some 150 runs its just a matter of one good ball
 
The walls absorbed a HUGE cuss from me right now.
 
Kohli has been a failure in this test thus far.

I don't know why Kohli drops so many catches too...He dropped McCullum in NZ in the short mid on position in the second test in NZ. That was a dolly. He dropped one yesterday too if I remember.
 
England and Broad need to stop with these theatrics of acting like they have been cheated. Trying to put unnecessary pressure on Umpire. :sanga

Also the crowd joining in with booing :sanga :sanga :sanga

Yup you don't have to go farther than the last two overseas tours...Any other top team would have won both those games except for India who find way to either draw or lose games from good positions.

Funny, because he's a good enough fielder in one-day cricket alongside Raina, Jadeja, Sharma and co.

@Sensibleindianfan you have even more reasons to rage about Kohlis fielding

Kohli is the worst test fielder.

What's the use in saving a few harmless runs when you drop important catches and do mess ups like these?

These cost the team 100's of runs.

He is too casual in the field....People blame Dhoni which might be justified but that short mid-on was a brilliant field placement for McCullum as he is known to drive in the air at the start of his innings....Just that he had the wrong fielder there...Any other fielder would have gobbled it up. I still remember he was lazily stretching his one hand as if he was stopping a boundary.
 
kohli seriously need to think about his fielding he makes mistakes too often

Lots of extras this innings. We're building England their own final partnership thus.

India's best test fielder without a doubt is Rahane...That guy is brilliant in the field and so is Jadeja.
 
The English commentators make so many excuses, I'd be cringing even if I were an English fan.

I still remember the 2005 ashes series where KP had a horror time in the field for all the amazing batting exploits in that series. He dropped some dollies in that series. But he proved later that it was just an aberration but Kohli's is a major issue, it happens often.
 
England didn't bowl a single no-ball during their innings. We've bowled ten.
