) )

18 runs in 10 innings. Chris Martin would be proud lol

 

[Markhor]

Root gone. Short ball again ! Sharma with 6 wickets.

India have got this one.

 

[Donal Cozzie]

Wasim who ?? On a serious note Ishant has improved a lot since the start of the year. 2014 the rebirth of Ishant he was mocked derided insulted but he came back stronger than ever. Ishant the Rebirth coming soon to a Cinema near you.

Rated L for Legend

And another one falls )

England cannot play short balls

I feel a bit for Cook. Captain of a very poor team

 

[Adil_94]

Gone 6fer Ishant Johnson is this Perth in disguise.

 

[Sam18696]

Has a ton in Perth.

He's been horrible these days. This is his third duck in a row

 

[Electron]

Lollllll... )

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom

ISHANT MA BOY

THE GREATEST PACE BOWLING LEGENDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

 

[Adil_94]

Good bowling by Ishant but this is woeful batting.

 

[desi_launda]

Where are ishant haters now

 

[samplepiece]

Ishant bowled a brilliant spell yesterday and a good one today. Has deserved the rewards in this innings.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Pathetic ball gets another wicket.

Roooot Gooooneeeeee!!!!

 

[RWAC]

Teeli on the Lord's honour board. Couldn't believe I would be alive to see this day.

England has thrown it away. They just want this to end quickly so they can go home.

 

[Adil_94]

Yeah that ton was when England had no hope and the Aussies bowled poorly.

 

[Electron]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom

Hahahaha... and the beast awakens ! ( Not ishant )

 

[lilFlip]

What a moment

6fer for Ishant

 

[Watsupdoc]

Man, I was hoping for a close match. Can't believe that England can't play the short ball

 

[nish_mate]

Thanks God Vodka dont smell- better be thought as a fool than drunk!!!

 

[mithun_minhas]

Now the trouble comes for Indians.

Plunkett, Jimmy and Broad will make this a tight game.

 

[Markhor]

Death by Sharma.

 

[hur rizvi]

Congrats to all Indians surely you cant lose from here

 

[Lords]

Ishant got the Mo-Jo of england.

What a legend, he says in his duck voice... talk nah

 

[Adil_94]

Ishant bowling like Ambrose reincarnated.

 

[Batman_DB]

ishant is such an extremist

 

[trogger]

***, that last 20 minutes might be worse than anything england produced in the ashes 5-0.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Ishant bowling a bit faster now. He is bowling at 87-88 MPH. Probably has got some confidence in his abilities helped by terrible shots from English Batsmen.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Ishant bowling like Ambrose reincarnated.

Please, he doesn't even come close to the legend.

It's just that the English batsmen are playing pretty stupidly.

 

[Adil_94]

Congrats India. England make the short ball look like a revolutionary tactic that has never been seen beforem

 

[Aman]

***, that last 20 minutes might be worse than anything england produced in the ashes 5-0.

You'd probably blank them 5-0 if an Ashes series were to be held tomorrow.

 

[Adil_94]

I know i was trolling there. It was good bowling coupled with brainless batting.

 

[London_Lahori]

Got to laugh at England, glad Cook and Co won't get away with this!

 

[Aman]

All over for England )

 

[Watsupdoc]

Come on Broad and Plunkett, please get a 50 each!

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Still lots to do.

It ain't over until it is.

Finish it off India.

 

[Aman]

Bad culture > losing culture, any day #BringbackKP #CookOut

 

[Convict]

England need to learn how to play the pull and hook shots

 

[nish_mate]

Indians bullying Engerlund at HQ with short ball.....

 

[Markhor]

If ECB were anything like PCB, some serious show-cause notices and life bans would be handed out.

On a serious note, Cook will probably remain as captain but the grumblings and discontent is only going to intensify.

 

[Adil_94]

For all their moaning about pitches by the Poms. First the SL seamers outbowled them. Now the Indian seamers are outbowling them.

 

[desi_launda]

 

[Watsupdoc]

I would say they need to learn which balls to pull and hook and which to leave alone!

 

[Adil_94]

England are comedy show at the moment.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Warne relishing England's misery. Trying hard to be neutral though.

 

[Electron]

This is top class short stuff. Its climbing up at some fierce pace.

Poor Captain of a Poor team.

I can't believe that Indian 'pacers' are getting England out by bowing short balls )

It's only really a matter a time before Cook goes, can't see England going anywhere with Cook in charge.

 

[cricket geek]

get those two wickets quickly .

 

[Ikball]

India on the verge of a much needed away win.

[Adil_94]

England look so hopeless against the Short ball ive never seen a team be so poor against the Short Stuff.

 

[Convict]

I would say they need to learn which balls to pull and hook and which to leave alone!

Which is the most important part of learning to play the pull and hooks.

This is the Ishant Sharma that worked over Ponting all those years back.

 

[The "D"]

That's the 3rd 6 fer for ishanth sharma in the last 4 test matches

This match was more of a my tail vs your tail. Guys with more wagging tail prevailed.

How quickly Ishant Sharma has made us forget about Bhuvi's 5fer.

Hard to believe for all the criticism he gets he got 3 5-wicket hauls in 4 tests.

 

[Electron]

Ishant needs to mix these up with fuller ones now. Too predictable for now.

Exactly! I don't know what they were doing attacking every single short ball. Maybe, they wanted to show how 'manly' they are and they are going to take the challenge head on. Pretty stupid from England, if that was the case.

 

[Adil_94]

Ishant after Steyn Harris MJ the best pacer in Test Cricket.

 

[Markhor]

It's only really a matter a time before Cook goes, can't see England going anywhere with Cook in charge.

Think they'll give him the rest of the series.

Something looks very odd in that sentence you put together.

Ishant is a world class pacer

Kohli giving a lot of advice to Anushka Sharma.

This is a once in a life time kind of spell. Will probably never happen again.

 

[Markhor]

How on earth have England conceived to lose a Test match at home at Lords of all places on a freaking green top.

Amateurish stuff, from not knocking off the Indian tail sooner to senior players failing with the bat and now succumbing to the short ball.

 

[Aman]

Think they'll give him the rest of the series.

It would be stupid to, he's been a passenger for the last 18 months.

 

[Markhor]

Stunned faces on the England balcony. Root looks like he's just attended a wake.

 

[mithun_minhas]

Broad living dangerously.

Who cares, this bodes well for KP and cricket fans around the world. The public and media will demand the ECB bring him back.

 

[jeetu]

Most people won't believe this but Ishant's bowling avg in WI - 16.86 (22 wickets)

 

[Kianig89]

How will this affect the ICC rankings and specifically our no. 3 position anyone

 

[Electron]

This is lethal stuff from Ishant. Just imagine him bowling like this on 1st day's green pitch. Carnage

 

[nish_mate]

Stunned faces on the England balcony. Root looks like he's just attended a wake.

This is karma- ghost of 4-0 thrashing coming back!!!

 

[Kianig89]

IShant performed in that Barbados test 3yrs ago he performed in Perth test 6yrs ago (going in cycles)

 

[Adil_94]

7fer ATG Ishant 7-71 Ishant is on fire

 

[desi_launda]

7-fer!!!

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Booooooooooooooooooom.

WHAT A SPELL.

This is UNREAL.

Haven't seen an Indian pace bowler bowl with such brutality as how Ishant did to Broad.

 

[Aman]

Can Ishant get 8?

 

[Kianig89]

HOw much Have England regressed :
