England tour of India, Jan 25 - March 11

[Durhamfootman]

I did wonder if India simply wanted to keep a right and left combo going, but they could have used Jadeja for that

[Arthur Crabtree]

Hartley's debut will be turned into a film one day. Called Redemption.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Seems Crawley dropped Rohit on 5.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Off Wood.

Wonder if Cook would have backed Hartley as Stokes has.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Another for Hartley, and Rahul goes to Root for a bonus wicket.

Must be 50-50 now.

[sussexpob]

My god this is actually happening.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Only 123 to get and Jadeja never gets out for a low score. And Rehan was carted in his only over. And Leach is injured. And Wood can't get it through to the keeper on the full.

But England still have a notional chance.

[Durhamfootman]

Oh hello……. again

Tea break does its job

And no………. Cook wouldn’t

[Durhamfootman]

I read that Axar ducked a Wood bouncer and Foakes had to take it off his toes

[Arthur Crabtree]

Jadeja never gets out for a low score.

Except... run out!

England probably on top...

[bigfluffylemon]

Could this be on?

India bat very deep - Ashwin still to come after this pair, and as AC pointed out above, England have about 1.5 functional bowlers.

But very much in it.

[bigfluffylemon]

And another - Leach back.

England must be favourites now!

[sussexpob]

Miracle need for India

[Durhamfootman]

Nice one, Arthur.

I’ll let you claim the Jadeja wicket

[Arthur Crabtree]

Internet jinxing was the only way he was going to get out.
