India reach 21/0 at stumps after bowling England out for 183 on Day 1 of the 1st Test

Wow England have messed this up massively since the Bairstow wicket

Advantage India
 
Thakur will be very handy in T20 WC too with all his variations.
 
This is a flat deck

India can get a huge first innings lead if they want
 
ENG about to be bundled out for 160 odd....well bowled India

As I predicted before, this Eng team is poor, India will be kicking themselves if they fail to win this series
 
I am just worried we need to bat at the fag end of the day in this fading light.
 
Apart from Stokes, Eng also dearly missing Woakes here.

That guy was is a real MVP in English conditions....his bowling stats in Eng are comparable to Anderson and he has played some highly valuable innings with bat...still remember his innings against Pak last year which helped Eng win from a hopeless situation.
 
Enland batting is so poor now a days however 225 will still be a good score the way ball has moved so far here.
 
Bar Root that top order is as worse as I have seen in many a year. God help England when the Ashes comes around. 5 nil written all over it
 
I didn't expect a over from Shardul.
All of suddenly Siraj was discarded and given ball to Shardul.

Great over from Shardul.

What an effort by Shardul. Your posts about him have been comical and embarrassing in equal measure.
Those comments were made when he was bowling pies which he surely was, these 2 wickets won't change that.
 
Rory Burns for duck.
Dan Lawrence for duck.
Jos Buttler for duck.
Ollie Robinson for duck.

Comical and embarrassing is what you're saying as if he was bowling well earlier too. He did bowl exceedingly well in this over, well done and everyone acknowledges that. Don't make it an occasion to take potshots on others.
 
Goodbye Broady.

No repeat of Trent Bridge 2011.
 
More comedy. If he was bowling pies then why was his economy at 2.5?

Only watch bits earlier at that time he was bowling wide so batsman can leave the ball easily.. He didn't attack much earlier.. He's your 4th baller so no complains..

Hope our batting doesn't commit harakiri like they did in WTC final. Broaderson are such a frightening prospect at home.
 
India has lot of overs to bat today...Rohit and KL opening is going to comical . I like KL, but TM if they have any common sense should know that he's not suited to open anymore .

His eco rate was good so he must be bowling alright!

Even if he didn't take any wickets, he still bowled competently. He's a newbie in test cricket and offering control that Umesh and till recently Ishant struggled with. With this context, it takes some irrational hatred or some petty agenda to say Shardul's bowling pies - with his ER at 2.5.
 
Curran and Thakur knows each other very well as both plays for CSK.
 
Excellent bowling by India. I didn't expect them to be this good having left Ashwin out. All the bowlers bowled well (except Jadeja, maybe). Get them under 200, boys!

I don't think you understand cricket OR the English language. When you say a bowler is bowling PIES - it means batsmen are feasting off his bowling. You know, scoring runs off him. Not getting it yet? It means the bowler is leaking runs.

Now show me when Shardul leaked runs.
 
You are still looking desperate. India is playing its full strength team and England is not. Get over it. Also beating the current Australia team isn't a big deal these days. :inti
See I told ya, all this logic will be a tangent to your head.
How desperate and clueless are you man :yk

I bow down to your 'superior' knowledge of cricket and English language.
 
No ball call means Anderson need to face bumrah.. Didn't capitalised..
 
In their quest for white ball glory....Eng have completely destroyed their Test match batting.....the fact that not a single Eng batsman except Root avgs above 40 is shocking

Also if beating Australia in Australia isn't a big deal these days why did Nz, pak got whitewashed last ime they toured Aus.
 
Anderson is going to eat Rohit alive. But he might thwack a cute 33 before that.

In fairness, the top three are newbies and batting has been challenging in ENG last few seasons.
 
I swear if we let Sam Curran walk all over us with both bat and ball for the 2nd time in 2 series...

Really underperformed in the WTC final..
 
England bats deep and they are proving it again.

Bring in Jaddu and let him dart into Pads of Jimmy and Sammy.

Is it wrong to say that this is the weakest England batting? :inti
 
On this pitch, India will be lucky to score over 120. Our batting is very fragile. Middle order is non-existent.
 
[MENTION=134981]Bhaag Viru Bhaag[/MENTION] come back when any other team beats Aus in Aus in a test series till then keep your opinion to yourself, you know the wprld shouldn't be exposed to every illogical thing that comes out of your mind.

This is still one of their strongest batting lineups. England strength has always been that they bat very deep. They are not dependent on 2 or 3 batsmen like India.
 
India have bowled well today and exposed englands batting. they do need to get this last wicket quickly.

Relax bro. You keep making fun of my opinion yet you keep getting hurt and replying to my post. England is missing Stokes and Woakes badly here. :inti
