England vs India | 3rd Test | Birmingham | Aug 10-14 | Day 3

[LethalSami]

Can't watch us strip naked and bend over to be ****** in the a**e like this

Anderson abusing Raina.

..

Look at the movement and bounce now !

When we were bowling it was like Kanpur pitch .

 

[Fireworks11]

Left outside off.

 

[Arcturus]

2-3 players being off-form is understandable but ALL 11 ???

 

[W63L35]

a 300+ thrashing and 4-0 whitewash will do India a world of good.

Good point!

Hopefully IPL will take background

Don't count on it..... BCCI would want their money much more than the wins.

 

[Fireworks11]

Crowd will be hoping they see a bit of cricket today.

 

[Clip]

a 300+ thrashing and 4-0 whitewash will do Pakistan a world of good.

Fixed.

 

[Atif]

Raina is a joke.

Pooing his pants already.

That was before he even came out to bat

 

[Fireworks11]

Beautiful shape by Jimmy.

 

[Atif]

2-3 players being off-form is understandable but ALL 11 ???

They are not out of form, they only bat decent on flat pitches.

 

[Arcturus]

Support through thick and thin mate. You enjoy the good times and suffer the bad. Makes the good times so much better.

Like today for me

Yeah I'm fantasizing about England's India tour in near future. They will get their comeuppance Insha'Allah *rubs hand gleefully*

 

[Fireworks11]

Prior coming up to the stumps to Jimmy!

 

[Sledger]

Prior coming up to Anderson...

 

[Fireworks11]

Single to cover.

 

[Fireworks11]

Prior is back for Raina.

 

[malakian]

I didn't expect India to last the day and at this rate they won't. Sachin looking ok so far.

 

[Random Aussie]

This is boring get another wicket. Or hit Raina!

 

[Fireworks11]

England are just bowling short balls to Raina, they need to mix it up slightly.

 

[Sledger]

58/4.

 

[Fireworks11]

The drinks are out. Wonderful opening hour for Eng.

 

[OZGOD]

Shellacking.

 

[Robert]

Jimmy could get all ten here.

 

[Torpedo]

Good chance for Tendulkar to bat freely and get a hundred

 

[Noman]

how many runs will the get?

 

[Fireworks11]

Cracking drive by Sachin. :4

 

[Sledger]

Uppish drive, four.

 

[OZGOD]

75 to go

 

[Fireworks11]

Ducked under. Broad's bouncers aren't as venomous as Jimmy's.

 

[VTEC]

i doubt if England will ever get this kind of thrashing from India IN INDIA

 

[Fireworks11]

Tucked by Raina. Single.

 

[imshally81]

From Cricinfo :

Ashish hits one below the belt when he says, "Indian batsmen are like faithful husbands, they perform only at home."

 

[Sledger]

NEWSFLASH!!! -

Raina has scored a run.

 

[IAJ]

Alu Besan into attack now!

 

[Sledger]

Raina. )

 

[Sledger]

He looks like getting out every ball.

 

[IAJ]

Saeed Ajmal all over Sussex, already taken 3 of the 4 wickets which has fallen.

 

[Fireworks11]

Tim comes on.

 

[Fireworks11]

Bouncer barrage for Raina. It's so predictable.

 

[Fireworks11]

Swann comes on, he should tweak it here.

 

[Sledger]

Swann on.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

What a fantastic way to wake up. India 64/4 )

 

[Sledger]

Not much spin first ball.

 

[Fireworks11]

LOL Sachin hacks it for Four. Slogged.

 

[Sledger]

Beaten in the flight, gets it away for four.

 

[Sledger]

Swept for one.

 

[Sledger]

Dropped?

 

[Random Aussie]

Bouncer barrage for Raina. It's so predictable.

Dude bats like a lady

 

[Namak_Halaal]

Indians are world champions at moaning.

They've complained about the sight screen more times than they have faced deliveries today!

Moan, moan, moan.

 

[Fireworks11]

Dropped. Raina gets a life.

 

[Sledger]

Yep, dropped.

 

[Sledger]

Strauss used to be so safe, has dropped quite a few in this series.

 

[Fireworks11]

Strauss should have gobbled that.

 

[Sledger]

Good careful shot, timed nicely. Four.

 

[Fireworks11]

On driven. Four.

 

[Sledger]

100th 100 is on.. lost cause and all that.

 

[LegendsXI]

century!! century!! century!!!!

common sachin

 

[Khabri420]

Strauss used to be so safe, has dropped quite a few in this series.

That catch could cost England the match...oh wait )

 

[ninjafirstslip]

wow tendulkar century to save face from phainty overload )

 

[Fireworks11]

Well left, Sachin looks really alert today.

 

[OZGOD]

65 to go

 

[ElRaja]

staruss been dropping them everywhere, reminds me of our kaptaaan on the windies test tour.

 

[Sledger]

Driven away for four more.

 

[Fireworks11]

If India bat till Tea tomorrow they'll have a lead of 100 odd.

Final session smash and grab win anyone?

 

[Sanchez]

Teenda to get his 100th ton when the end is nigh it seems

 

[Fireworks11]

Smashed by Raina lol.

 

[Sledger]

We asked for Rain.. not RAINA

-

 

[Namak_Halaal]

I suspect the Indians will show up in this thread as SRT edges closer to 100.

 

[Fireworks11]

Down the wicket. Over extra cover. Raina turns in to one day mode.

 

[Sledger]

Risky shot, didn't get it all.. but four more.

 

[ninjafirstslip]

If India bat till Tea tomorrow they'll have a lead of 100 odd.

Final session smash and grab win anyone?

things are falling into plan tendu 100 from huge phainty

 

[Fireworks11]

LBW!

 

[Sledger]

Raina gone. )

 

[cricketpassion]

 

[Sledger]

What a pathetic, pathetic player. Get out of test cricket plz.

 

[Atif]

Raina is )

 

[Sledger]

Good decision too.

 

[Clip]

We asked for Rain.. not RAINA

-

Genius.

 

[Sledger]

It's not even lunch yet and they've lost half their team. )

 

[Namak_Halaal]

Prediction: SRT on 99, 10th Indian wicket falls - SRT last man standing!

 

[Clip]

Raina looking for review there. Oops.

 

[Fireworks11]

Dhoni strides out.
