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

[DeadlyVenom]

Pants belly got in the way there.

Pathetic cricket from England.

 

[MP2011]

We'll have an entire day tomorrow with just 1 review. Well done Gill

 

[Rajdeep]

What’s going on. So many poor reviews

This is just wastage

Root is the prize wicket...so they are desperate.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Did that carry?

Umpires are having a review

 

[MP2011]

Root has been extremely lucky today

 

[DeadlyVenom]

@Rajdeep this is blatant cheating..clear catch given not out too

 

[mominsaigol]

Root is the prize wicket...so they are desperate.

Why? Root aint saving this test lol. India is winning.

7 to 8 wickets in 100 overs? I dia will win

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bounced before getting caught

Not out

 

[Devadwal]

Rizwan would have claimed that catch but good for pant to said I'm not sure about it.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Would have been funny if reviewed this one too

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Oh my God.

Roots stumps uprooted.

@Nikhil_cric negativity has been vindicated.

 

[MP2011]

Root gone

 

[mominsaigol]

Goat bowling from India. They deserve to win this test.

Have outplayed england in all forms

 

[Devadwal]

@Rajdeep this is blatant cheating..clear catch given not out too

No need for any review , Root uprooted

 

[TNAmarkFromIndia]

Three down!

India making the most of the overs today!

 

[Rajdeep]

@Rajdeep this is blatant cheating..clear catch given not out too

I took another wicket...poor man's Temu Tendulkar gone

 

[MP2011]

What a delivery by Akash

 

[Bhaijaan]

You ain’t getting past Sachin playa!!

He’s the greatest of all time.

Not you

 

[mominsaigol]

Now only Rain can Save England

 

[Savak]

England being humiliated by India without Bhumrah

 

[Devadwal]

Pants belly got in the way there.

Pathetic cricket from England.

Root belly got in the way there so he not adjusted his feet movement.

 

[RidiculousMan]

That was Bumrah-esque. Deep using the angle just like his counterpart on bench Bumrah does.

I wonder when Bumrah retires. Will the world look back and really question if Bumrah really introduced the idea and execution of angles like no other pacer did in world Cricket.

 

[Rajdeep]

Why? Root aint saving this test lol. India is winning.

7 to 8 wickets in 100 overs? I dia will win

Focus is to protect Goddy's record...test match is secondary

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Oh my God.

Roots stumps uprooted.

@Nikhil_cric negativity has been vindicated.

Brains frazzled after being kept on the field that long.

 

[MP2011]

Would be helluva funny if we manage to get England all out within first session tomorrow and all this talk of delayed declaration just evaporates swiftly

 

[Markhor]

Take a bow Akash Deep.

No Bumrah, no issues.

 

[gazza619]

You don’t need Chukrah, when you have bakra

 

[mominsaigol]

Focus is to protect Goddy's record...test match is secondary

Congrats to @Nikhil_cric @Rajdeep @MP2011 @RamLakhan @Bhaijaan and @Hitman For securing victory.

Will hope to see in the 3rd test where I come back to fight on .

I refuse to ping the clown gang though.

 

[Devadwal]

And people's compare softy root to GOAT SRT. Idiots

 

[MP2011]

England being humiliated by India without Bhumrah

At home too at their preferred pitches where we have not won a single test in our history

 

[Romali_rotti]

Joe Root is now officially the worst batsmen I have seen when under pressure. My God this kid is hunny bunnnss

 

[cricfan432]

Its kl rahul innings and yashasvi jasiwal in first innings which was crucial. They softened the new ball so shubhman gill could take advantage.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Akashdeep is bowling an inspiring spell right now.

The delivery to Root, on this pitch? Get out of here bro.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Pleasure watching Akash bowl today. Lovely stuff.

 

[MP2011]

That was probably best delivery of this test match

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Krishna paaji is pumped up and charging in too.

 

[sindhiboy]

How did Akashdeep average 54 on spicy Australian pitches?

 

[Bhaijaan]

We lost to these punks because we dropped too many catches last match and had two silly collapses

 

[Rajdeep]

@Devadwal certain posters are missing from this thread

 

[Justcrazy]

I told right at the pre match posts that England have to play Test like Test otherwise India will win if they hold on to there chances. Only rain can save them here. BazBall is sheer stupidity.

 

[Bhaijaan]

How did Akashdeep average 54 on spicy Australian pitches?

He’s simply bowling better now.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

You may not be aware but there are 2 innings in test cricket. He is still within a chance of once again being there when the winning runs are hit. Dont speak too early....

Unless Smith and Brook bat on for another 2 days and England win by an innings.

Failed in both innings. I know you've slithered back into your little hidey hole. But fortunately , there are 3 more Tests when you can pop out and come up with better, smarter refrains than the one above.

 

[MP2011]

Stokes appearing downcast

 

[RidiculousMan]

He’s simply bowling better now.

His bowling also suits English conditions.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Krishna almost got Pope out

 

[Justcrazy]

This approach has not only costed England in tests but in OD too you can see them struggling to bat full 50 overs.

 

[Markhor]

England being humiliated by India without Bhumrah

It's high level sport - you win, you lose. Desi fans overuse terms like humiliation, embarrassment etc. Good teams don't simply lay down.

It's better for the series that India are set to make it 1-1. Nothing worse than watching one-sided Test series.

Stokes' decision to bowl first on a featherbed though got the consequence it deserves.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Indians wasted atleast 15 overs of tuk tuk.. Could've had Eng 6 down today..

 

[Bhaijaan]

His bowling also suits English conditions.

Yup he wasn’t seaming so well in Australia

 

[MP2011]

I told right at the pre match posts that England have to play Test like Test otherwise India will win if they hold on to there chances. Only rain can save them here. BazBall is sheer stupidity.

This bazball is absolutely pathetic stuff. They may win some tests here and there but they are setting a very bad precedent for next generation of English batsmen.

 

[Justcrazy]

This shows if you stick to your basics you can win , even though Bumrah was not there .

 

[RexRex]

@mominsaigol I take back what I said, AkashDeep is the new GOAT

 

[Bhaijaan]

India clearly justifying why this is a 5 test series

Despite the pitches. It’s been a cinematic game of chess

 

[Ahmed216]

Congratulations to Indian fans for this historic victory.
Some crazy good performances from the young guns

 

[Devadwal]

@Devadwal certain posters are missing from this thread

I was about to say same thing . Hahahaha maybe hiding in a bunker

 

[RexRex]

How did Akashdeep average 54 on spicy Australian pitches?

No scoreboard pressure to exploit. Kohli and Rohit were 9 pins.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Pope doesn't have a good 4th innings record but surprisingly still there, with 3 down

 

[MP2011]

Good use of crease by Akashdeep

 

[Sarmad]

India deserves to win from here.
Eng 3 down

Eng top orders once sgain flops on the new ball

 

[MP2011]

Gotta take at least a wicket more before stumps.

2 would be out of this world.

 

[Devadwal]

7 minutes to the end of play . My wish is already granted as I predicted three England wicket today. One more would be icing on the cake

 

[Devadwal]

Much much better from prasidh in this innings compared to first

 

[MP2011]

Hope ECB dares to prepare a green pitch at Lords.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Draw is still possible. People are too quicky congratulating India. They have done well but still a lot of hard work to do.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Hope ECB dares to prepare a green pitch at Lords.

And unleash Sam Curan on us?

 

[Devadwal]

Draw is still possible. People are too quicky congratulating India. They have done well but still a lot of hard work to do.

Yes .this is still flat pitch . India needs another three wickets in the morning session to win This test

 

[Buffet]

Once the ball is older, two batsmen can bat entire day here.

Only question will be Eng batsmen temperament here.

 

[RexRex]

This bangladeshi umpire is pretty good.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Draw is still possible. People are too quicky congratulating India. They have done well but still a lot of hard work to do.

An English win probably is still alive for as long as Brook and Jamie Smith are still there

 

[MP2011]

And unleash Sam Curan on us?

We'll unleash Bumrah on them

 

[DeadlyVenom]

An English win probably is still alive for as long as Brook and Jamie Smith are still there

It's impossible now bro

 

[Buffet]

Draw is still possible. People are too quicky congratulating India. They have done well but still a lot of hard work to do.

Draw is still a good chance in this pitch. Eng needs to just not gift wickets after ball gets older.

 

[Markhor]

People thinking ECB have rigged the pitches for England in this series:

Look at the mammoth scores in the County Championship. The Test pitches are just following the same trend.

A few years ago all the talk (which Rob Key was a part of when he was a pundit) was medium pacers were running riot and conditions needed to change. However they've overcompensated by going to the other extreme.

County sides are scoring 600 for fun. Surrey even racked up 820 the other day at The Oval. The Dukes ball hasn't been as good as it was pre-Covid either.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Perfect time for Jaiswal to drop a dolly and walk away with the honours on Day 4

 

[Devadwal]

Just wide of midwicket . Brooks survive

 

[JaDed]

After the ball gets old, we would have to wait for next new ball to make a dent

 

[RexRex]

County sides are scoring 600 for fun. Surrey even racked up 820 the other day at The Oval.

That was with kookaburra ball.

 

[JaDed]

This is the worst Dukes ball we are seeing , getting old so quickly.

Kohli and Ash should see this, they were blaming SG

 

[Bhaijaan]

Little over 500 runs only left now. England has brought the deficit down.

Any time that boards take control of pitches just seems to end in disaster.

Leave it up to the individual groundsmen and make a few tweaks. Industrial style pitch manipulation just ruins the game.
