A ***** first hour or so for me today.
Underway, Jordan put a lovely 4 away to leg and Bell has reached his 50. His 42nd in 104 Test Matches :star: Warney saying what a good bowler David Saker was Corky and how well he would have bowled on that pitch yesterday
At lunch England are 201 for 6, a lead of just 49.
I'd take that with a pinch of salt. They are big mates LdB so bound to butter each other up. ;DQuote:

Stuart Broad is not fit to bowl after being hit in the face when batting. Nevertheless India are 70 for 6, needing 145 to make us bat again. As Sui pointed out days ago the forecast for tomorrow's 4th day is awful.
They could win this tonight, I reckon if offered we'll take the extra 30mins.
Cmon England.
India all out 161. England win by an innings & 54 runs with no Stuart Broad.
Fantastic effort & suddenly the future looks very bright.
What do ya reckon Bladder? :D :D
Sounds like a good win, are India a good team? I have no idea.
I always think games against the Ozzies and Yarpies are the difficult ones.
TBH I never watch any of it so my opinions are totally non valid. I've never heard of half of the England side so what do I know? ;D
Hope you cricket lovers are enjoying it all and I'll throw a little barb in every now and again.
It amuses my tiny mind if someone gets upset. ;D
Sad really :blue:
Had to go to not so sunny Hayling but received a text to say England had won, well done. :star: Dhoni's captaincy and the Indian batting will receive a lot of stick from their media and fans but a win is a win. For me, whilst important, all other Test series are in preparation for the Ashes. That is what matters and long may they continue.
