If Cook doesn't score he should be dropped IMO

 

[Adil_94]

Bell needs to stand up this innings. His failures have gone unnoticed because all the spotlight is on Cook.

 

[Cricketrenew]

Great captaincy by Dhoni, hope he uses Jadeja today pitch is perfect for spin.....
Cook really poor captaincy needs to make up for it with the bat or his a gonna.....

He should of delayed taking the new ball and allowed Moeen to bowl to Jadeja.

"Test Cricket is unique, nothing compares to it " - SriNivasan

Good to hear that coming from him.

 

[saiyan0312]

If there was ever a time for cook to play a match winning innings, its now.

 

[Varun]

Warnes ass kissing of Jadeja is annoying

Can't even pronounce his name.

"Da-da-Ju-de-Ja"

 

[Electron]

Jaddu turning them miles

 

[Adil_94]

Can't even pronounce his name.

"Da-da-Ju-de-Ja"

The Rockstar Jadeja Warne hypes him like he is the next great all rounder

 

[Adil_94]

Jadeja will run through England though. Poms cant play Spin.

 

[Batman_DB]

india will miss ashwin i hope jaddu takes a 5fer and win the match for india!!! still a long way to go anything can happen

 

[Electron]

Giving away too many singles down the leg. Keeping things tight is as important as being aggressive here.

 

[Electron]

Murali Vijay almost took a wicket 1st ball.

 

[desi_launda]

Woah pitch turning square.I thought Lord's didnt assist spin too often

 

[desi_launda]

2000 rpm from Vijay

 

[desi_launda]

Captain Cool regretting not picking Ashwin

 

[Electron]

Kohli looks subdued on the field.

 

[London_Lahori]

Some free runs being given to England here.....

 

[Batman_DB]

vijay bowling decent but bhuvi is the key he can take cook down

 

[desi_launda]

slip fielders need to stay alert

 

[desi_launda]

Cook 16*

 

[Electron]

Runs coming very fast.

 

[desi_launda]

Keep Kohli away from the slips!

 

[biggestdravidfan]

Jharkhandi wasting new ball . All hail captain c(f)ool.

 

[Electron]

Wow. Head to head, Ishant Sharma has destroyed Cook. 7 dismissals for 132 runs !

 

[Sam18696]

Woah Cook is still out there? Can't believe it. He usually lasts till 5 mins

 

[London_Lahori]

Dhoni standing back to a spinner

 

[Justcrazy]

Cook needs to survive here

 

[London_Lahori]

The batsman can charge without worry of getting out stumped

 

[Batman_DB]

what is MSD doing lol standing back to a spinner

 

[Electron]

Dhoni standing back to a spinner

Needs more time to deal with the rough. Ball keeping too low there.

 

[Anfield]

Why is Murli Vijay bowling? a part-timer will take pressure off cook.

 

[desi_launda]

easy singles

 

[Justcrazy]

Why Standing so far

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 45 runs.

 

[Batman_DB]

i think cook is coming back to form leaving the balls well

 

[London_Lahori]

Needs more time to deal with the rough. Ball keeping too low there.

What about a stumping? Or if an edge falls short of him?

 

[lilFlip]

Ball is keeping low reason for this innovation

 

[desi_launda]

Indian bowling attack back in form

 

[Justcrazy]

Poms need to play jadeja well here.

 

[Buffet]

Eng looking good to chase down this target. They just need to bat for long time and runs will come.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

I'm hoping shami gets some sharp reverse here. At pace. Only way we can forceca win here.

 

[lilFlip]

Very good over

 

[Justcrazy]

Fifty runs partnership

 

[Electron]

What about a stumping? Or if an edge falls short of him?

Pata nahi

 

[Electron]

India needs a bowler who can bring occasional deliveries back to Cook. Ishant is too easy to leave.

 

[desi_launda]

Rr 2.27

 

[London_Lahori]

India needs a bowler who can bring occasional deliveries back to Cook. Ishant is too easy to leave.

Bhuvi has barely been used.

 

[mithun_minhas]

England are in the driving seat.

Another 50 runs without a wicket, they should win this comfortably.

 

[Ottoman]

Jadeja is trying to pitch every thing in the rough, he should just forget about the rough and try to give the ball some air.

 

[desi_launda]

We should start preparing for next test.Must drop the passenger Binny

 

[Justcrazy]

Indians bowling well , wicket is near.

 

[Batman_DB]

india lose overseas matches coz they lack 1 gun fast bowler

 

[Justcrazy]

Runs have dried up here.

 

[Varun]

We're throwing it away.

Cook is likely getting back to form.

 

[battler]

jadeja has been unlucky here

 

[FreakCricket]

jadeja has been unlucky here

Not a typical test bowler, he often tries too many things in an over.

 

[test_fan]

Dhoni's captaincy will never let us win any match overseas. Ok it was a clever move to bowl spin for a change but he wasted the new ball by bowling part time spinners and gave Cook time to settle down. One of the worst test match captains I have seen, if not the worst. Time and again the moron throws away advantage with his "innovative" or rather moronic captaincy.

 

[Kianig89]

Stuart Binny aka

 

[Justcrazy]

Cook fighting it out here , key moment in the game

 

[Kianig89]

Did India's last overseas test win was in WI 2011

 

[Batman_DB]

The last time Cook faced 100 balls in a Test innings was at Perth.

 

[Batman_DB]

ballance gone

 

[test_fan]

Shows how big of a moron Dhoni is, gave away at least 40 free runs to England.

 

[leatherface58]

England lose their best bat after Anderson.

 

[Varun]

Yes! Got the ton-maker.

 

[Varun]

He can go and have a drink now.

 

[Varun]

Did India's last overseas test win was in WI 2011

Yeah, thanks to a Dravid rearguard ton at Jamaica.

 

[Kianig89]

Yeah, thanks to a Dravid rearguard ton at Jamaica.

Well! then that's a very long time given the amount of games India plays they desparately need to win this one

 

[Justcrazy]

Big wicket for India , match on here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Cook has to guide this chase here.

 

[Batman_DB]

india back in the game

 

[Justcrazy]

Bell gone

 

[Justcrazy]

Where are those , who said India cannot win ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Bell has rung ..... poms ship sinking here.

 

[desi_launda]

Bell :

 

[Varun]

Woohoo! Cook and Bell had to be separated sooner rather than later.

 

[desi_launda]

Root is the most dangerous bat.Can score briskly too

 

[desi_launda]

With that rare wicket,Ishant's wicket drops from 38.18 to 37.95

 

[Silly Point]

This match is all over. India have finally won a test match. Thanks to stupid England and their pitches, it's become a piece of cake for teams to win in England.

 

[Electron]

This spell is the reason Ishant plays for India even after that dreadful average. He can be brilliant, and he is bowling these spells a lot more often now.
