India vs England | 4th Test | Nagpur | 17/12/12 | Day 5

If Bell go on to make his hundred it'll be a complete performance from England.

Cook 3 hundreds, Kp 1 hundred n 2 fifties, Trott 1 hundred n 1 fifty, Bell a hundred, Compton 1 fifty but 2 hundred n 3 fifty partnerships, Root a fighting fifty, Prior 2 fifties.

Swann 20 wickets, Panesar 17 wickets, Jimmy 12 wickets.

Almost everybody contributed to our victory, except Fatel.

And Broad.

And Bresnan.

Yup but they were just to keep the runs down with spinners being the strike bowlers. Anyway poor tour for both of them, especially after their respective injuries. Should be kept out of the team for a while till they regain their pace if not anything.
 
Bell looking comfortable shows the oceans of difference between the class of Indian spinners and Ajmal-Rehman.
 
LMAO Sehwag. Hopeless. That was a dolly that an under-9s slips fielder would've taken

I reckon they should bat till stumps. Make the Indians chase leather all day

India used to make up for their hopeless fielding with good batting and decent bowling. Now that they look very weak in both the batting and bowling departments it makes you remember just how utterly rubbish their fielding really is.
 
Well, England should have batted a litle bit quicker and declared by how.

I am sûre they will go for a Bell century....
 
India also have to find a safe slip catcher now, Sehwag fatty is useless in the slips :)))
 
yeah missing Laxman n Dravid there too

maybe Kohli or Gambhir can do be there
 
Last time England won a Test series in India (1984). Alastair Cook was born in the year 1984. Looks like Cook was born to beat India :D
 
All we need to do is bat until there are only 7-8 overs left in the day then declare and get Jimmy and Swanny to bowl them out cheaply.

He was also born on the 25th of December, he is the 2nd coming of Jesus!
 
England should pass 300 by tea and declare. 30 overs to bowl at the tired Indians, they might just win this one too.
 
lol is sehwag trying to create a record for most number of drops in a series?
 
Looks like this is the worst test match played in last decade.

Look who batted twice in this match :))
 
Had England declared by lunch, I am sure they would've won 3-1 instead of the 2-1 which they'll gather now.

As for India, rotten eggs awaiting them post match.
 
Shot that ! It's all about torturing india atm before the official media torture :P
 
Musaarth Ali, sorry to say but you're talking utter rubbish and you don't have the balls to take a series defeat at home. Stop whining and making excuses. Grow up!
 
I can see the argument both for batting to stumps as a form of torture, and going for the win as a form of potentially greater humiliation. Either way, this is a great day for English cricket :)
 
England will declare if Trott gets the double and Bell the three figure mark or if one of them gets out soon.

They set India a one session "target" :)
 
why dont they shake hands n go off,this is so boring n meaningless

Congrats England though,they deserve to win the series
 
Come on Ian, get this hundred sorted and let's skittle these chumps after tea
 
Keep batting and batting and batting. Try and put up 1000
 
You know it is a strange match when Chawla and Swann are the only players to have scored runs at a faster rate than Trott...
 
Bell is killing test cricket by purely playing for personal milestones.

See how Dhoni went for a high risk single when he was on 99. Learn Belly before you leave India.
 
Pathetic Wicket.I hope Dhoni is now happy with this turner.Sack the idiot who made this pitch.This is a travesty of a test pitch.No matter who wins or loses the pitch should be result oriented.

To be fair, this post is some first-rate trolling :D

our bowlers can make any pitch look flat:))
 
Most forums have an option to ignore posts from individual users, this forum really needs it.

I mean i admire musaarthali, he's basically a fulltime troll and that must take a lot of dedication but it's annoying trying to read his stuff.
 
I think the 4th Test has been a true test of character, skill, and strategy - and by god England pulled it off. Test cricket at its best.

My pre series prediction bears fruit!

PS: God save the Queen!

I think you were the only one who was saying England would win the series from start, good prediction :P
 
England are now publicly humiliating the Indian team. A rare case where selfishness pays off.
 
It's like being waterboarded all day long , watching Belly go tuk and tuk.
