India (224 & 396) hold off England (247 & 367) to seal a thrilling 6-run win in the fifth Test to level the series at 2-2

[Rajdeep]

Siraj was not out...umpire screwing India again

 

[RexRex]

Jadeja and Washy should have hit boundaries instead of hanging around ..

 

[BDfanforever]

India deserve to level this series and they probably would have won if they didn’t play that coward Bumrah. A 3-1 loss would not do justice to this series.

Yes, 3-1 would not do justice at all. I think 2-2 would be fair result at the end.

 

[Bhaijaan]

We are used to it since decades.

Guess you only deserve what you get. Closing the match is a big thing and if we cannot do it then it doesn’t matter if dominated 80% of the session. It’s about who wins in the end.

334 runs is generally a winning total in 95% of tests. But if we are going to lose our 4th test straight defending 330* against England then we absolutely deserve to be the losers and have to acknowledge Bazzballers

 

[mominsaigol]

As usual Indians have no clue about the game. They think they have won .

Oh bhai easy chase coming up, England will win with 6 to 5 wickets in hand.

You all have zero understanding about this game

 

[Champ_Pal]

9 down without any addition to the total.

The worst tale in international cricket BY FAR

Arshdeep is a much better batsman than Prasidh.

If someone is coming behind Siraj, they better be an excellent bowler. But Prasidh somehow makes it to the squad.

 

[Rajdeep]

Sundar should bat top of the order. Much better bat than Sudarshan and Nair.

India better lose or you will get PTSD from it.

 

[mominsaigol]

India better lose or you will get PTSD from it.

England has won this test. End of.

Honestly I facepalm at so many of these rubbish comments. Why can't any poster be as skilled and unbiased as me?

 

[Champ_Pal]

Sundar should bat top of the order. Much better bat than Sudarshan and Nair.

Sai is a newbie. He has lots of potential.

Karun is a pile of garbage. He is a waste of space in the team. I hope the Karun raising from ashes experiment is over.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

If England win this Test, 3-1 will be perfectly justified. Why wouldn't it be ?

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

England has won this test. End of.

Honestly I facepalm at so many of these rubbish comments. Why can't any poster be as skilled and unbiased as me?

I don't think so.
Pitch is doing a bit. Also England doesn't deserve to win this because of so many extras and drop catches.

 

[Rajdeep]

Shabash Sundar...

 

[Rajdeep]

Sai is a newbie. He has lots of potential.

Karun is a pile of garbage. He is a waste of space in the team. I hope the Karun raising from ashes experiment is over.

I dont like Sai either. Meek cricketer like KL Rahul. Technique alone will not take you anywhere.

However he is young...so some hope.

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

@mominsaigol and you want this team to win???
Look at this brainless bowling.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

@Devadwal 350 lead achieved

 

[Champ_Pal]

Sundar showing why you need all rounders in a Test match.

Both Jaddu and Sundar have been magnificent with the bat. The best batsmen after Jaiswal and Gill.

 

[RexRex]

Washington Sobers ?

 

[CricVet]

Beautiful pulls!

 

[mominsaigol]

I don't think so.
Pitch is doing a bit. Also England doesn't deserve to win this because of so many extras and drop catches.

They will win, repeat of the 1st test coming up

 

[Bhaijaan]

Washington just smashed 3 sixes.

India leads by 355 now.

Well done Washy!

 

[mominsaigol]

If England win this Test, 3-1 will be perfectly justified. Why wouldn't it be ?

Ofcourse it'll be perfectly justified? England aren't cowards. They dont settle for draws

 

[Rajdeep]

@TheSultan bhai left? Maybe gone to prepare for Ashes

 

[Human786]

Superb ... 2-2 loading !!!

 

[mominsaigol]

@mominsaigol and you want this team to win???
Look at this brainless bowling.

They'll win dw

 

[Devadwal]

@TheSultan bhai left? Maybe gone to prepare for Ashes

And another one is busy watching Wimbledon

 

[Bhaijaan]

Slashed for 4

India leads by 362

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pulled for 4

Lead by 366

Washington bhai on 46*

 

[Rajdeep]

What a shot to get to 50

 

[Bhaijaan]

Smashed for 6

Washington gets to 52*. His 4th six

Lead by 372*

 

[batandballbattle]

not the first time washington has bossed england

 

[Bhaijaan]

Last 12 balls - 35 runs for Washy

4 sixes

 

[Rajdeep]

England changing the ball again

 

[Nikhil_cric]

This is a great practice match for the Aussie Ashes.

English bowlers getting practice for the thrashing they are going to get from Travis Head and Cam Green

 

[CricVet]

Eng bowlers have lost their marbles. Too short without any bite!

 

[shah_1]

Washington is great all arounder in making

 

[Bhaijaan]

What a brutal shot. It’s defaced the ball Ball being changed.

Well done Washy.

What a game changing knock.

He’s lifted the spirits

 

[Vikram1989]

Washi successfully auditioned himself for asia cup

 

[Mockingbird]

Sundar, Washy!

 

[mominsaigol]

This is a great practice match for the Aussie Ashes.

English bowlers getting practice for the thrashing they are going to get from Travis Head and Cam Green

England obviously dont stand a chance against Aus.

But india sucks

 

[Devadwal]

Washi slapping stokes s and how scintillating knock

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Washing Powder

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Worst bowling i have ever seen.

 

[Devadwal]

Or Karo bouncers yar.

 

[Human786]

terrific by visitors .... could have been series winners with just 5% more application in 1st three games .
Anyway , 2-2 is good .

 

[Bhaijaan]

What absolute terror. Pure entertainment.

Washy batting like prime Jayasuriya lol

 

[kron]

Forget about bumrah

Pakistan will never produce an AR of the quality of sundar ever.

Not even close. Not even razzaq.

Forget about it. Just forget about it.

And this tulla gulls from Aus are no where near sundar in terms of talent

I am always right. Not saqib bhai. I am the goat.

Gill sucks period.

 

[Ab Fan]

List of ATGs in Indian team:-

Jaiswal- future ATG
Gill- future ATG
Pant - On its way to be ATG
Jadeja- Borderline ATG
Washington - Future ATG
Bumrah - ATG

All hail Indian team and humiliation for our brothers past the border.

 

[kron]

England obviously dont stand a chance against Aus.

But india sucks

England might beat Aus this time with a good bowling attack

 

[Rajdeep]

terrific by visitors .... could have been series winners with just 5% more application in 1st three games .
Anyway , 2-2 is good .

Yes should have won the Lords test and even the first one defending 371

Then again Ifs and Buts dont work

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

Now so called England realised that okay we have a new ball in our hand.

 

[Devadwal]

easily

Goat bazz ballers for a reason

They may or may not win but they would smash pak team of 90s and saffer team of 90s and fatso mark Taylor’s team of 90s too on flat pitches

 

[mominsaigol]

373, Easy chase coming up, India stands no chance

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Forget about bumrah

Pakistan will never produce an AR of the quality of sundar ever.

Not even close. Not even razzaq.

Forget about it. Just forget about it.

I am always right. Not saqib bhai. I am the goat.

Gill sucks period.

ever heard of Imran Khan?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

England obviously dont stand a chance against Aus.

But india sucks

Agree. Easy chase coming up for Bazball England.

 

[Devadwal]

374 is the target for England.

Around 25 over remaining so need to pick 2-3 wickets before EOD

 

[kron]

Bumrah needs shami to win tests

Siraj needs no bumrah to win

Question is do we choose umma or Chumma

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

List of ATGs in Indian team:-

Jaiswal- future ATG
Gill- future ATG
Pant - On its way to be ATG
Jadeja- Borderline ATG
Washington - Future ATG
Bumrah - ATG

All hail Indian team and humiliation for our brothers past the border.

First of all injury king Bumrah is not ATG for that he has to play a lot of tests.
Jadeja: Good test player
Washington: yes Definitely future ATG
Pant: yes
GILL : No he doens't have that ATG aura.

 

[kron]

ever heard of Imran Khan?

Who is that? The guy who uses bottle caps, shoe spikes to get reverse and cheat?

 

[RexRex]

This is a great practice match for the Aussie Ashes.

English bowlers getting practice for the thrashing they are going to get from Travis Head and Cam Green

For Eng, it's good practice match for Ashes. For India, tis good practice for WI tour.

 

[Rajdeep]

Highest chase on this ground was 263 way back in 1902.

 

[kron]

England may or may not win this game as pitch may flatten but they sure as hell would destroy any goat 90s teams on seaming or flat tracks

 

[Devadwal]

373 is enough for us ? What you say comrades @Rajdeep @Nikhil_cric @Ab Fan ?

 

[batandballbattle]

Should be enough for india, surely it can't happen three times now

 

[kron]

Highest chase on this ground was 263 way back in 1902.

Bazzball is different they are the goat bazz ballers side for a reason

They can beat anyone on such pitches. 2000 to 2006 era Aus who are overrated as hell btw would struggle vs these bazz ballers on such pitches

India doing really good to fight and win vs these marauding dazzlers

West Indies goat team of 80s is the only team that is a true goat team not fake Aus snowflakes of 2000 era and West Indies goat side is the only team that can beat bazzlers in a series in England

 

[RexRex]

Should be enough for india, surely it can't happen three times now

Respect to England if they can do it again.

 

[CricVet]

Last year, SL chased 219/2....Interesting

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Highest chase on this ground was 263 way back in 1902.

Highest ever chase at Edgbaston also used to be 283 and then we gave up 378/3 and England smashed that record

 

[batandballbattle]

Respect to England if they can do it again.

Will be amazing if they can
However we have seen a few jag back for the pacers, so it's not as flat as edgbaston 2022 or Headingley in this series. 2-2 confirmed

 

[Hyder]

Was right about jaddu, sundar، jaiswal. Pant should ve done more.

Class players.
Jaddu although is nearing an end and i ll try washi more.

 

[RKhan_Cricket]

I hope they play bazball. That's the only way they can chase this on this pitch.

 

[mominsaigol]

Their is no chance for India to win this test.

None what so ever. All these cry baby posters will vanish soon enough

 

[mominsaigol]

Was right about jaddu, sundar، jaiswal. Pant should ve done more.

Class players.
Jaddu although is nearing an end and i ll try washi more.

Yeah that is why Pant avg 70+ and jaiswal avg less then 40 this series.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

India have really showed some steel in this series. They aren't far off having lost their big names in test, Kohli, Rohit, Ashwin all gone, Bumrah basically didn't show up.

Despite that these young players stood up and fought.

 

[BDfanforever]

373 is nearly 400 runs, that is a very steep chase. Bazzballers about to get smashed.

 

[CricVet]

If Eng leaves without losing a wicket this eve, the game is dead even then.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Krishna typically bowling loose balls and giving away easy boundaries at the very start.

 

[Human786]

Yes should have won the Lords test and even the first one defending 371

Then again Ifs and Buts dont work

1st would have been a draw if not for 72/13 across both innings . Could have won the 3rd with lil more application .
10 in 2 - brisk start !

 

[BDfanforever]

If Eng leaves without losing a wicket this eve, the game is dead even then.

Eng could be 100-0 and still be far away from 375. We have seen what happened in the first innings.
