India by four wickets. Hard to see India throwing it away after riding the last hour.

It will be a new day tommorow. Fresh bowlers. Better bowling strategy planned tonite. Butthen again it could be sunny day with no cloud cover and aid batting

Can't predict. If England gets Kohli, game is over for India. If Kohli stays, India wins.

Kohli will take them home. This guy can absorb pressure and maintain his scoring rate whilst batting with the tail.
England can't beat India if they can't get Kohli out.

I think Kohli is smart enough to make sure that he takes his team over the line if he stays till the end. So, you get Kohli out and that will be England game.
Prediction, well it is very tough at this point. One of the finest matches this is going, reminds of Edgabastan 2005.

England should cruise through it considering it's Kohli alone standing between the hosts and an easy win.
39 runs win for England.

With 2 days left to scores 84 runs, you have to give to the batting side !!!!! The Indians don't have good batsmen left to take them over the line .... though Kohli is still there, so the wheels must be turning in both the Teams ..... Test Match Cricket ..... only sane Cricket !!!!!!!

Batting early morning against a fresh Anderson and Curran wont be easy.
I think England should win by around 20 runs.

If Eng do lose, they will rue their dropped catches a lot more than their batting collapses.
I haven't seen such a poor English fielding side in a long time.
Even against Pakistan their fielding was below par as per their own standards.

I don't think playing that slow will help. Indians don't need to score quickly, but scoring 10 runs in 1 hour will ensure you are going to get some wicket taking balls and you didn't even add any runs.

Also, this situation has happened many times, but home team wins pretty much every time. I am 80% sure that Eng will pull it off.

England but I won’t be surprised if Kohli pulls it off.
Yep, India by four wickets I reckon.
Kohli is admirably Mentally Tough, and bats brilliantly on dry tracks.

Since the track is not doing much, batting will dictate what happens !!! For the Indians loosing this match is a Two match swing ..... they have not much to loose by letting England sweat all day !!! Kohli is an absolute stud in such a set up ..... and don’t forget .... Cricket is a Batsman’s game !!!!!

Kohli at the crease, Sobers yet to bat. Ishant "the wall" SHarma can give company to any top order bat, all in all for the moment, India is in the driver's seat.
I pick India to win, even though its easier to collapse than to chase.

After first hour today if India have added even just 15 runs without a wicket or max Karthik's wicket then in my opinion they will win easily.
If Kohli departs early then it's game over.

Had it been May, Kohli would've got India home, as he would've liked to prove his worth on seaming tracks, but now that it's August, & Kohli has nothing to prove on such dry tracks, he might give away his wicket, & England would win
