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

Not a single post talking about Pant's keeping on a day ball was nipping and jagging around. Nice!
 
SKY: SIR ANDREW STRAUSS also expresses his surprise at Jimmy Anderson only bowling three overs for England this evening...

"The ball was swinging, it was overcast, the lights were on. That was tailor-made for Jimmy Anderson. Let's have a look at that, let's hope it is not an injury or anything like that. The India batsmen looked very assured; they looked like they were backing their technique. That is something at the moment the England batsmen aren't doing. They look like they are questioning their technique, rather than backing it."
 
SKY: SIR ANDREW STRAUSS offers a candid assessment of a disappointing opening day for England at Trent Bridge...

"It's hard not to feel pretty dejected right now as an England fan. Those issues we've had about batting have come right to the surface on day one of the series. There is still a lot of cricket obviously to be played in this Test match. Virat Kohli talked about some scarring with English batting. If there are scars, they are pretty wide open right now."
 
Agree with Strauss....should have continued with Jimmy unless he got some niggle which we aren't aware off.

What is he trying to say here? :inti
 
The day belonged to India. The won the day hands down skittling England out for under 200. Scoring 400 plus in the first innings means the first test goes to India.
 
Bhumrah was swinging prodigiously both ways especially in later half. Many here did not want him to be selected. interesting
