What's new

India (587 & 427/6d) defeat England (407 & 271) by 336 runs in 2nd Test at Edgbaston

These bit and pieces cricketers won't take us anywhere especially in test cricket.

This has clearly been Gambhir's school of thought
 
603 is the lead and these cowards are still batting.

Hang your heads in shame. You’re so scared of Bazball
 
I am absolutely frustrated and annoyed by this defensive approach. Wouldn’t have happened at all in the Kohli captaincy era.
 
ok so APPARENTLY PLAN IS TO GIVE INDIAN QUICKS A REST

thats the idea

they need rest to bowl with intensity

samja?

ok

now stop complaining
 
That’s the end of Nitish Kumar Reddy’s test career.

I don’t know what was he doing in the test side anyway. A mediocre batter and a nothing bowler
 
So its good we can get rid of Karun Nair, Nitish Reddy/Thakur & Prasidh Krishna (though he may pick some wickets in the last innings due to England Team succumbing to pressure in case they can't draw this match) - these players will be sidelined for the rest of the series for sure... But a decision also has to be made for Kuldeep replacing one of Jadeja/Sundar... OR Sai Sudarshan/Jurel coming in place of Sundar....

I will attribute half a credit to rohit dumbness, masterclass in shameful captaincy and pathetic batting by roko.

And to think he was still an automatic choice to lead us in BGT if not for his child birth

Need to declare now. 600 plus can't be chased on 5th day even by bazball
Click to expand...
Even if they bat at 6 rpo for entire day tomorrow they are not scoring 600

Absolutely terrible thinking by Gambhir
 
Finally a declaration.

England need 608 to win and most Indians think they will do that 🤣

History about to be made 🤣

I guess they don't want to be down 0-2. :inti

But this is negative thinking. They had a good opportunity to win this test match but they would rather make sure that they don't lose.

I'm happy though as a Pakistani fan seeing this mindset of the current Indian team. Long may it continue lol

Reddy is a talented bat, his 100 in Aus is proof he is quality.. Needs more chances up the order, drop Nair no need for him anymore and let Reddy take his place for lords.
 
Now we will see real aukaat of bazball . India has played against bazball ego. :kp
 
Can Indians get under England skin and make them commit suicide?

If Kohli was around you know he would have wound them up big time.

England shouldn't really even try to chase this, but Stokes is a nutter and may play for a win.

Agree with you.

My hope is Siraj Bhai 6fer insha'Allah to win the match for India.

0 for Krishna.

A few wickets for Jadeja, he looks a bit Pakistani.

you are from asia, so you should be supporting asian block not goras.
regardless whether you were born in uk or not

even if you were born in uk, brits would never accept you as a brit.

ethnicity is what matters. support asian teams.
 
607 to win for Poms , If England have iota of sense , they will look to bat out today safely instead of going for glory.
 
Shubman Gill this test series so far

2 tests
4 innings
585 runs
Avg 146.25
3 centuries
Highest 269*

India does not have the bowling to get England all out.
England has to play rash shots and get out in the pursuit of victory. This is the only way India can win.

Leave bgt he thought the same for this series too.once agarkar said both roko are not any more automatical choices, then only both left.one of most shameless bunch ever represented Indian team.
 
England favourites to win the match and go 2-0 up. Can captain Gill weave some magic with his bowlers? :inti
 
Set the full attacking field placement . Don't care about boundary now. We have enough runs. This is Where extra runs matters. :kp
 
We have already lost around 12 overs thanks to England's pathetic over rates.

If we don't get a result , it's England's fault for bowling at a crawl most of the time.
 
just a reminder

Loading…

www.espncricinfo.com

england scored 592 against atg world class attack of australia

who are inferior to india's attack under kohli anyway. but yea

they pummeled them on flat pitches

so they can score vs this attack as we only have 2 good bowlers.

hence the declaration at 608 with 108 overs to get 10 wickets.
 
Shubman Gill was just on another level.

The way he batted in both innings calm, confident, and pure class
No stats needed... that was a statement.

One of the most complete Test performances you’ll ever see.

:kp

sorry here
 
The current first-class record chase is 536... Will England chase 608 to win?
 
Don't think England will be looking for a win. They'll be mighty pleased with a draw. They'll still be leading the series.​
 
How has the umpire not given that out?

England could be 2 down

Akashdeep probably got the outside edge of Ducket
