May it doesn’t stop raining and may Indian tears pour down harder than the rain.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Covers are already in place for that... LOL

 

[Markhor]

Jay Shah last seen in the Birmingham area with a mop and bucket in tow

 

[Devadwal]

There is no rain after 1PM Local time but we might be see some drizzles because of Pakistan fans tears.

 

[Devadwal]

We have only just started losing overs now. A little more rain on the way but all the forecasts say this is the last bit for the day.

Meanwhile, the run-up covers are coming off.

From 7 hrs and 30 mins, 1hr 30 has been washed away

 

[Devadwal]

Play can extended untill 8PM local time. Yea we may lose 10-12 overs.

That's not too bad then, probably only lose about 7 overs or so... Upto the bowlers now.

 

[Devadwal]

Pretty much but ECB groundsman can cause the some delay due to England team conditions. They takes 10 minutes to re-start the game in the last match but here They are likely to take as much as time they wants to save the tullebaaz team

Don't forget they used the floodlight on day 5 in the last test match .

 

[Ali Active]

536 of 80 overs doable i guess

 

[Devadwal]

We are receiving word that we'll have 80 overs for today, with play starting at 12.40pm local. Here are the revised session timings -
1st session: 12.40-14.30,
2nd session: 15.10-17.10,
3rd session 17.30-19.00

Shameful from ECB. They said in the last Match play will extended untill 8PM to complete the overs but here they don't want to increase the Play time .

I don't blame Eng, they just scared just like the Pakistanis who were praying for rain. Cowardice runs deep in the blood

what will extra 10 overs do if india wins this they will inside 80 overs if they dont they prolly wouldnt have in 90

 

[Devadwal]

It's not about overs but double standard. If they said play can extended till 8Pm then why different rules for this game.

This is clearly cheating and hypocrisy.

 

[Devadwal]

Why Krishna is bowling why not Siraj and akashdeep in a tandom?

 

[BouncerGuy]

talk about the game.

 

[Ali Active]

Will Eng play bazzball or just defend their way to draw?

 

[Devadwal]

Where is bazball? I thought England never wants to play for draw according to captain stokes .

Nikal gyi hawa ?

 

[DeadlyVenom]

I don't blame Eng, they just scared just like the Pakistanis who were praying for rain. Cowardice runs deep in the blood

Only tuk tuk Gill and Gambhir are brave.

 

[Devadwal]

Akashdeep strike. Pope gone

 

[BouncerGuy]

There goes Pope... Yet again, It is gonna be Brook, stokes and Jamie smith to rescue..

 

[DeadlyVenom]

It's not about overs but double standard. If they said play can extended till 8Pm then why different rules for this game.

This is clearly cheating and hypocrisy.

Play can extend if they don't finish the 80 overs in time.

 

[Devadwal]

Play can extend if they don't finish the 80 overs in time.

Let's see . Anyway India Mostly finsihed the overs in time because of jadeja.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Akashdeep really announced himself on the world stage with this performance

 

[mominsaigol]

There goes Pope... Yet again, It is gonna be Brook, stokes and Jamie smith to rescue..

Naw game is over

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Match toh warr gaya!

 

[kron]

If you are Asian you support an Asian team. You are not supposed to support uk. Even if you were born there you will never be considered a Brit.

Support Asian block.

It’s good for Asia.

England got this. Real danger is now
Brook and smith and stokes

They can chase just like they did in first innings

 

[Devadwal]

Missing Kohli only for sledging . Come on Say some nice words to arrogant stokes who said we wanted to chase 500 ( after india vs ENG one off test )

 

[BouncerGuy]

Pope is bunny of akashdeep.... 3 out of 3

 

[DeadlyVenom]

If you are Asian you support an Asian team. You are not supposed to support uk. Even if you were born there you will never be considered a Brit.

Support Asian block.

It’s good for Asia.

England got this. Real danger is now
Brook and smith and stokes

They can chase just like they did in first innings

Yes we can really see how much Indians support Pakistan and Bangladesh

 

[Devadwal]

Even this test end in a draw , I'll take on arrogant English supporter of bazball( Tullebaaz cricket)

Where is bazball now ?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

England should attack. Required rate is only 7 RPO

 

[kron]

Prasidh going at under 2.2 an over???????

What is this?!?!

Can’t be real life??

I hope he doesn’t get picked somehow

 

[kron]

England should attack. Required rate is only 7 RPO

This is an easy chase on such a patta

It’s like an odi. Just don’t lose concentration

 

[nish_mate]

Yes we can really see how much Indians support Pakistan and Bangladesh

Happily support Pakistan, the original one, not the Misbah one!
As for BD, do they deserve support from anyone??

 

[Devadwal]

Brooks gone. Hahaha

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Happily support Pakistan, the original one, not the Misbah one!
As for BD, do they deserve support from anyone??

Nowadays it's a package deal.

 

[kron]

Brooks gone. Hahaha

I don’t think that was the right decision

If gill had cojones he would call brook back.

That was a rigged wicket.

Brook is far better player than any batsman India have produced

We had to cheat to get this wicket

 

[OldWarHorse]

Twice the pain for Brook. Beautiful stuff

 

[Ahmed216]

Bhai these vicious in-cutters from Akash remind me of Asif

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Like I told you from the beginning, I decided when to bring the storm.

The Bazballers need another storm

 

[nish_mate]

Nowadays it's a package deal.

Decouple East and West pakistan

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Bhai these vicious in-cutters from Akash remind me of Asif

Pacier version.

Such beautiful bowling to watch.

 

[kron]

Bhai these vicious in-cutters from Akash remind me of Asif

Nha asif was a different level.

He was far better than bumrah Cummins and Rabada too

Prime asif was unplayable. Amla and de villiers rates him as the best ever they faced.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Nowadays it's a package deal.

Being packaged with BD is the death knell of your cricket.

 

[Devadwal]

Don't forget England were 83-5 in 1st innings as well after they build 300+ partnership .

 

[Devadwal]

Why is Siraj not bowling? Any perticular reason?

 

[Ahmed216]

This was bound to happen. Cracks opening up on day 5 with 4 full days of sun.

Time to retire for Stokes.

 

[Ahmed216]

Did I compare the two?

But let me tell you.

On a pitch as bare as this I never saw even Asif bowl so beautifully

 

[Romali_rotti]

Pacier version.

Such beautiful bowling to watch.

I am eating the humble pie, I was mocking Aakash bad during the Aus tour, glad to be proven wrong...

 

[aboveandbeyond]

The difference in Quality of the Indian seamers and Englands been very evident. No surprise in the Quality of Deep specially. I was very impressed watching him live few days back.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Wow Stokes looks like deer in head lights, lucky to survive the last ball.

Someone has to give Aakash Deep some support here, Prasidh offering almost nothing...

 

[Devadwal]

Miyan don't take any risk to stop a boundary. We have 600+ runs .

Jane do boundary kya fark padta hai.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

Amazing performance by India so far

 

[kron]

Why is no one talking about this??
Prasidh Krishna going under3 an over

Cmon lads

That is unbelievable. How?

 

[kron]

The difference in Quality of the Indian seamers and Englands been very evident. No surprise in the Quality of Deep specially. I was very impressed watching him live few days back.

He is good

In bgt if he played i feel India would have drawn that series or won

 

[mominsaigol]

The Bazballers need another storm

Beware, I am still watching, be scared

 

[DeadlyVenom]

I am eating the humble pie, I was mocking Aakash bad during the Aus tour, glad to be proven wrong...

most of didn't expect this type of venemous bowling. the lad really stepped up.

 

[Romali_rotti]

How in the world is this Aakash guy seaming the ball so much ???? Is he bowling on a different pitch ?????

 

[Devadwal]

Need another slip . Only two slip and a gully

 

[batandballbattle]

You wonder why they left deep out in the first test

 

[Devadwal]

OMG. Back to back Jaffa from akashdeep but Smith is surviving by sheer luck.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

England need to survive 8 or so overs and the ball will lose its sting.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Omg last ball to Jamie Smith cut him in half, Aakash unlucky not to get a wicket there.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

You wonder why they left deep out in the first test

Had to accomodate

 

[aboveandbeyond]

Cracks are very evident. Surely next test Match, Stokes has to put his Ego at the back of the shelf and play the game according to the conditions.

 

[batandballbattle]

Had to accomodate

deep should displace krish when comes back

 

[kron]

Akashdeep is good but is the pitch making it hard or the conditions or is the bowling just too good?

 

[DeadlyVenom]

deep should displace krish when comes back

for sure,
If the next pitch is more seamer friendly then can also drop one of Washington/Jadeja for Arshdeep.

Will be a very handy bowling line up.

 

[kron]

Brilliant from AD
Great speeds and lengths

 

[OldWarHorse]

I want Jamie Smith to do well irrespective of the result. A breathe of fresh air. Reminds me of Pieterson

 

[Devadwal]

Things are settling down for England , need one magical ball to get rid of one batter here

 

[aboveandbeyond]

Pacier version.

Such beautiful bowling to watch.

Asif reminded me more of Mcgrath and Pollock. He had a uniquely strong wrist where he made the ball talk even on the Flat pathas of Pakistan.

 

[RexRex]

How many are overs left in the day ?

 

[aboveandbeyond]

How in the world is this Aakash guy seaming the ball so much ???? Is he bowling on a different pitch ?????

Cracks are very evident.

 

[Devadwal]

How many are overs left in the day ?

12 over bowled so far out of 80 . 68 over left

 

[Devadwal]

Stokes 10 of 34 balls ? Where is bazball?

[Ahmed216]

On these sub-continent type pitches I won't be surprised if India go on to win the series

 

[Devadwal]

Put more close in fielder for jadeja.
