1st Investec Test: England v India at Nottingham

what you guys think

So finally, Moeen Ali, minus funky fields, gets the tailender in the old fashioned way.

Kumar out for 58 off 149 balls. Shami unbeaten 51 off 81 balls. Partnership 111 runs.


I wonder how often the tenth wicket has been that successful without a specialist batsman at the crease.

The average 10th wicket partnership vs England in their last 26 Tests is 32.27.

[size=18pt]just like I expected..that India would score like hell against this cheesy england team...prolly cut deh arse too..win the series.

Botham is a lousy commentator and cricket judge[/size]

Cook bowled around his legs as the ball gets stuck under his thigh pad & crashes into the stumps. England 9-1

Send flowers and runs to Alastair Cook

Robson tending to play across the line a bit. Not a bad idea to have a short cover for the leading edge on this slow pitch.

7.2  Mohammed Shami to Robson, FOUR, too far down the leg side and it's neatly clipped

to deep backward square leg where Bhuvi lets it run though his legs -
his first mistake of the day 
 

43 - 1

England trail by 414 runs with 9 wickets remaining in the 1st innings
