First Test - India v England

[Otto42]

Stokes what a beauty!

 

[BoroJake]

9th wicket

 

[TeaCider]

Get in, glad my fears were unfounded.

 

[Zoophonic]

1 to go

 

[WilliamMunny]

Brilliant from England and especially Joe Root. A masterful piece of captaincy and one in the eye for all those naysayers who couldn’t understand the logic of the decision to keep some of the new ball for a day 5 pitch.

 

[s!ovak]

I'd love Leach to get a 5-fer. It'd do his confidence the world of good for the series!

 

[TeaCider]

That was weird!

Thought we had a final wicket, the bail just fell off by itself.

 

[TeaCider]

What a win that is.

Archer gets the last one.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Archer seals it.
Well done lads.

 

[Zoophonic]

Brilliant win. Well done lads.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

That was weird!

Thought we had a final wicket, the bail just fell off by itself.

Just looked at the replay and it looks like the stump moved. The ghost of Chennai......

 

[Chris_Boro]

Brilliant victory, outplayed India in every department.

How does Jimmy Anderson keep doing it?

 

[Otto42]

That over from Jimmy...one of the great sporting moments

 

[Muttley]

Aw buggger they could have waited till I got out of the shower!

 

[davidmills]

Fantastic bowling by Anderson.
One of the great overs in Test cricket.
Will be talked about like Holding to Boycott over in 1981 at Barbados

 

[ForssAwakens]

Apart for yesterday evening session this has been total domination from England

 

[davidmills]

Root was just setting game up yesterday, they where still in control. He wanted 2 goes with new ball, last night and this morning.

 

[Marvanelli]

What an unbelievable all round performance.

Once again, Root showing why he's the captain with the timing of declaring. Incredible.

Even England Cricket's admin team are having a pop at the bedwetters wanting us to declare far too early!

1 more win and we match Australia's record of 7 straight wins in the sub-continent by a non-asia team.

That over from Jimmy...one of the great sporting moments

I'd echo that, I didn't think Flintoffs magic over from 05 Ashes could ever be beaten but that from Jimmy was amazing.

Loved his comment in the interview when asked about the declaration, "I've spent more time than anybody on that pitch so I knew how it played"
