Still plenty of time for India to sort this out.

I would imagine there will some words spoken at lunch and would expect an improvement this afternoon

[Durhamfootman]

decent enough start to England's reply

[meninblue]

283 runs or 10 wickets is the equation now.

We had to make the most of the conditions by picking at least two early wickets, instead this has been wasted by giving 5 runs per over for 9 overs bowled.

Need atleast 3 wickets this session to get back in the match. Anything less than that would be another bad session.

Well, when we were having a magnificient home test series after series after series, we were like Lions in jungle. That time someone reminded of away tests and I requested not to remind of the away tours for obvious reasons. And the things are going as they were anticipated last year itself. Lost SA series and another test series loss very likely. Things were not sorted out in last 7 months time. Script written well before hand and it's been going as per the script. Maybe the odd win but no change in the end script.

The last test series we won in England was in 2007.

Bowling change, Ishant into attack.

Has one 5 fer in first test. Need another 5 fer spell.

[Dr Cricket]

need to get a third man in.

[meninblue]

50 in 10 overs.

England openers have seen off the brand new ball threat. But then thats only half the job done. Starts are expected to be converted into significant scores. So still some pressure on English openers as they too are out of form in most matches.

[Dr Cricket]

dropped catch again, jesus pujara can't you not do anything right.

[Dr Cricket]

boom cook gone.

[meninblue]

This slip cordon is very pathetic. Two catches already dropped in 12 overs.

[Dr Cricket]

surely not much left in cook career.

[meninblue]

Gone

Thank God this went to keeper .

Out of form Cook fails to post a significant scores yet again. Hope this is the one wicket which will bring another two wickets.

[Dr Cricket]

Boom 1 bring 2.
much needed after the poor start with the ball.

One did bring another

Keeper again. Couldn't ask more.
