Kohli was definitely thinking about a review there for a moment.

Wow you won’t see many wickets with a worse ball than that in international cricket. Absolute filth😀

Time to bring Wood on for a few overs here.

Looks to me like India have taken a page out of England’s book and decided to step on the gas harder in the opening power play. On a good pitch like this it makes life difficult for the opening bowlers. And both have found it tough so far. Must admit I’ve been surprised at India’s batting tactics in this series. They got away with it in the first game, but not in the second game. So, maybe not a surprise to see that change. I think they had to change, they know they will need a minimum of 350 to put England under pressure and that kind of score just isn’t possible if you’re only scoring 40 in the powerplay. I think they’ll target Mo in the middle overs too, after seeing how England took apart their spinners in the last game I doubt they’ll just milk him around for 40 odd again. Good call on Mo. They are definitely not milking him! Well, not on that last over! They are certainly following England’s approach to batting.

400 on?

Post by chuckrocky on Mar 28, 2021 10:22:07 GMT
If these pair are still in going into the last 10 then it’s definitely on. They haven’t got much to come after though.

Based on runs scored so far - quite possibly. Based on wickets lost and what’s to come - maybe not. England need just two wickets to get into the tail which will slow things down considerably. The longer it takes get those two wickets the closer they’ll get to 400.

Buttler should be standing up to Curran?
Not that it would make a lot difference.

Well, we got those two wickets reasonably quickly.
Two new batsman at the crease with 11 overs to go. And those two are nos 7 and 8.
Difficult now for India - what score do they aim for.
Push too hard they may lose more wickets and end up with 310 or so. Maybe less. 400 ain’t going to happen (touch wood).

India have caught a touch of the England fever. 11/4 and all out for 329

We're probably due one of the openers to fail today. Be interesting to see how we cope with that if it happens.

A bit too casual from Roy, he let his guard down after hitting those three boundaries.
