England vs India | 5th Test | Oval | July 31-Aug 04 | Match Discussion

[Rajdeep]

This series has been a roller coaster...now expect England to make a comeback

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Atkinson keeping England in the game

 

[mominsaigol]

Aweeeeee poor gill, Couldn't break Bradman's record.

Once again that rubbish propaganda fails

 

[Romali_rotti]

And here comes the collapse.



Wickets fall in bunches on this ground

 

[mominsaigol]

Anderson was completely done in Test cricket.

I'm not sure what he could've done .

Potts may only be an 82 mph average pace bowler but he hits that channel outside off more often than any of their other bowlers.

On the evidence, I'm not sure what Overton offers ahead of Potts.

England needs 5 Anderson level bowlers to become the world's best team in test cricket.

 

[mominsaigol]

Anyway good batting from Jaiswal and watch how good Karun plays at no 6. No 6 is tailor made for him

 

[Devadwal]

Bow expects wannabe to came here after watching the wimbledon match.

 

[Rajdeep]

This is Karun Nair's last international innings. Might as well give it a try. Awful batsman

 

[kron]

i am sorry gill will always be a phattu player

thats why i dont rate this guy and i am always right

@mominsaigol

 

[PAKFAN12]

I'm sensing a collapse from here .

 

[shariqnoor]

First spicy pitch and Shubman Gill looks like a deer caught in the headlights. Credit to him though that he made hay on flattest of flat pitches earlier in the series.

 

[kron]

karun nair is completely mediocre cricketer.

gill whenever you needed him he never once stepped up. phattu. haha
go home. be with sara

 

[kron]

i never rated this guy.
there is a reason for it.

thats why my opinion matters on a player's ability more than anyone else.

 

[kron]

gill will be a max a rahane level player. but rahane was a goat captain

not even kohli level and i dont rate kolhi highly either.

 

[kron]

karun nair
-short
-fat
-unfit
-unathletic
-washed up
-has been
-fodder

 

[Rajdeep]

In Dwayne The Rock Johnsons style - 'So let me get this straight, Indian team has gone from days of classy & flamboyant Gundappa Vishwanath batting at no.6 to stylish & elegant Aussie dominating and McGrath conquering VVS Laxman....all the way to one stroke wonder Karun Nair'

 

[kron]

atkinson thinks he is tough lmao. with that pudgy face. cmon bro. stop. just stop

 

[kron]

In Dwayne The Rock Johnsons style - 'So let me get this straight, Indian team has gone from days of classy & flamboyant Gundappa Vishwanath batting at no.6 to stylish & elegant Aussie dominating and McGrath conquering VVS Laxman....all the way to one stroke wonder Karun Nair'

karun nair is the worst batsman in the team

 

[RamLakhan]

Jaiswal is the only guy in Indian Team who can match England's Bazball when he gets it right! Of course Pant does similar thing, but Pant's is old-style attack (with tight defense) bit like Sehwag, Hayden...

 

[PAKFAN12]

This pitch is still offering enough help if you bowl in the right areas.

 

[mominsaigol]

And here comes the collapse.



Wickets fall in bunches on this ground

I have a feeling Jamie Smith will hit the winning shot tmr and Root will score a century

 

[Sachin fan]

Aweeeeee poor gill, Couldn't break Bradman's record.

Once again that rubbish propaganda fails

Weren't you praising and supporting Gill over Jaiswal all this while? Never seen a bigger dal badlu than you

 

[Ahmed216]

Duckett Crawley and Jaiswal have played with right approach for this pitch.
Jaiswal a bit lucky but he's earned it

 

[mominsaigol]

Weren't you praising and supporting Gill over Jaiswal all this while? Never seen a bigger dal badlu than you

I support Gill. I laugh at all those morons who claimed Gill would break Bradman's record.

Stop responding to attention farm and seek likes from the gang over and over.

 

[Sachin fan]

Thank you so much

Nah, you just like to be contradictory for attention. While I was a teenager, I have known many teenage girls showing the same behavior

 

[PAKFAN12]

Leave him alone and don't derail the thread because he's an attention seeker.

 

[mominsaigol]

Maybe thats why you are single

 

[mominsaigol]

I don't see attention. I shut it down. Misinformation cannot spread in my presence

 

[Rajdeep]

Century for Jaiswal

 

[Ahmed216]

England under immense pressure.
Jaiswal's magnificent hundred is going to be match winning.

 

[kron]

I have a feeling Jamie Smith will hit the winning shot tmr and Root will score a century

i initially felt that way too but i actually feel prasidh will break his bones tomorrow so he wont be able to play much sadly.

 

[kron]

Leave him alone and don't derail the thread because he's an attention seeker.

who saqib.rai? i agree

 

[RamLakhan]

I love and hate (both) these Mortal Kombat style Fatality Celebrations of Indian Centurions, because at times it leads to brutality of team in the quest of getting those!

 

[PAKFAN12]

A stunning knock under pressure – pure class, grit & dominance from the young superstar. Take a bow

 

[kron]

Jaiswal is the only guy in Indian Team who can match England's Bazball when he gets it right! Of course Pant does similar thing, but Pant's is old-style attack (with tight defense) bit like Sehwag, Hayden...

shewag was a walking wicekt in england and sa. and in nz. terrible vs swing

good vs pace and bounce, good on flat wickets and spin.

 

[kron]

why is a century so important. slap that jaiswal. win it for the team you idiot
who cares about personal milestones.

this is difference between every country and australia.

australia dont care for milestones. they care only about winning.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

England needs 5 Anderson level bowlers to become the world's best team in test cricket.

England's whole thing about winning in Australia and India will not be helped by having so many Andersons

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Well played Jaiswal

 

[PAKFAN12]

England's whole thing about winning in Australia and India will not be helped by having so many Andersons

Anderson has a Test bowling average of over 30 in Australia, India, South Africa and Sri Lanka.

 

[mominsaigol]

England's whole thing about winning in Australia and India will not be helped by having so many Andersons

Then idk, replace them with 11 Me's. I will ensure Emgland never win

 

[aboveandbeyond]

I see enough movement today. Bit unlucky. Bit untidy from England. Atkinson and Tongue are fine. Overton looks undercooked clearly. Not enough match practice.

England have been Terrible since Yesterday lunch. Erratic bowling and Poor fielding. Surely india will punish them for this and take a strangle hold of this game.

Ravi and Nasser where pointing out, day 3 at the Oval has been the best bowling day this season in the counties. Wonder same applies to Test match conditions.

 

[kron]

lmao at 5 andersons.
england have a very good bowling attack core

tongue- high quality
carse - good bowler
atkinson - decent to good
archer - high quality

overton - decent sub
potts - good back up. hits the deck hard

strong bowling lineup.

stop spouting nonsense.

 

[mominsaigol]

Good innings from softie

he said day 3 was best batting conditions. not bowling
pitch could flatten on day 4 though

so depends on that. india's job is to tire england out. thats the main thing.

 

[kron]

prasidh 135 to 145 bowler
siraj 135 to 145 bowler and can bowl in all tests unlike most
akashdeep 130 to 142

quick attack

quicker than england and most team. but apparently they are trundlers lmao.

maybe you need to get brain transplant. some of geniuses here.

 

[kron]

generational brook butter fingers.

 

[kron]

karun nair needs to be deported. dont think he makes u.a.e test team. but here he is quota pick

 

[Vikram1989]

Nair gone.india should stop this experiment. Jurel or some one else should be groomed for 6th spot

 

[kron]

geee brook and nair are 2 ugly as men lmao

 

[CricVet]

India was needed luck on this track to get to a challenging total and they got in abundance. Now, they will have to materialize it without squandering the chances while fielding. India is in a commanding position and can post a target of 350 or more - Lower order must contribute though.

 

[CricVet]

Wow - as soon as I typed, they lost a wicket :/

 

[Vikram1989]

Ravi and Nasser where pointing out, day 3 at the Oval has been the best bowling day this season in the counties. Wonder same applies to Test match conditions.

I think its for last 5 years data.so seasons , pitches and weather conditions might have played a lot.

 

[RamLakhan]

Match winning knock by Jaiswal... He made it count for the drop catches!

 

[batandballbattle]

300 plus lead and India will be safe, pitch is not as flat as headingley or edgbaston 2022

 

[PAKFAN12]

The highest successful Test chase at The Kia Oval is 263 .

 

[Katwalindian]

Dop catch is part of game...on these type of pitches you need little luck also to score...

Match winning knock by Jaiswal... He made it count for the drop catches!

 

[PAKFAN12]

Atkinson's spell against both the left-handed batsmen is going to be very important for England.

 

[mominsaigol]

Well their goes Nair. The Sam Konstas of India

 

[Devadwal]

match is on a edge . 50-50 as of now

 

[Vikram1989]

Commies comparing yesterday's lunch session to today's.ball seems to be doing more in lunch session .300 should give bowlers a lot of confidence as per them.Reason is that even if eng ransack 70 or 80/2 in morning session, lunch session will give a real advantage for ind to dismantle the opposition. 4 or 5 wickets in lunch should settle the match .

 

[Buffet]

It has been cracking series. Not often we see 5th tests and last inning deciding the series. It's the same situation as Ind-Aus series. Score after the series was 3-1 in favor of Aus, but series was decided by the last inning of 5th test. A far better than one sided series.

Having said that, this series has been a ton fest. I don't recall so many tons in one series in Eng any time.

Total 19 tons in series and counting.

When was the last time a series had 19 tons in any seriers in any country? Anyone has looked into that?

 

[Rajdeep]

Time to put an emotional bet on Eng win?

Most individual hundreds in a Test series
21 - Australia in West Indies, 1955
20 - West Indies in South Africa, 2003/04
19 - India in England, 2025*

Thanks. So only one instance of higher tons in series in the last 50-60 years.

Current match surface is a good one otherwise series saw some of the flattest roads in Eng.

What's the second highest ton count in Eng in any series? I am just curious.

 

[PAKFAN12]

18th hundred partnerships in this series
the most in a Test series in this century (since 2000), surpassing 17 in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in 2003-04.

 

[batandballbattle]

Yeah Lords and the Oval have been the only sporting surfaces, which is a bit strange since the oval is usually the flattest of the lot. Thick cloud cover on the first two days helped I guess

 

[kron]

what is saquib rai thinking now?

 

[mominsaigol]

Taken by Men .

I don't change opinions.

If you dont know the difference between these 2 sentences

I support Gill

gill wont break the record

Then what can i say? Your cognitive skills are = Devad

 

[Champ_Pal]

If India can set a 320-330 lead, they have a very good chance of winning this. For that to happen, Jaiswal needs to stay till the end. Hopefully Jaddu, Washi and Jurel can score some too.

 

[RamLakhan]

England bowlers look tired, India should go bazball after tea...

 

[Rajdeep]

Off topic - what is India's next series anyone? We are not touring Bangladesh...so no cricket in August?

 

[Ahmed216]

Just saw the scorecard. Akashdeep scored 66. But how?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Just saw the scorecard. Akashdeep scored 66. But how?

Expert coaching by Pant during the break

 

[RidiculousMan]

Overton is the most overrated player in current English setup

 

[CricVet]

Finally, they caught HIS catch

 

[mominsaigol]

Are you kidding? Jaiswal got out again? Ultimate softie? Brother just take your team to 500 and level the series
