Lol at the slips. "You couldn't fit a bus ticket between them" says David Lloyd.
Most people Oyster nowadays anyway
Commentary wouldn't be the same without bumble.

It's a bit of a disappointment that there's no commentators like Ravi Shastri, Harsha Bhogle and Sunil Gavaskar commentating today

^ I agree with that, Ravi in particular is good to listen to.
I watch a lot of cricket all over the world, just introducing some rivalry into the thread.
lol. What a load of crap. Guessing you don't watch cricket regularly, only England at home? Journey men? World champions!
Yes, India don't have the raw pace of the England front-men they'll still consistently hit mid 80's! It takes a lot more than just pace.

Good first session for England that.
I dont think many expected we wouldn't lose a single wicket with conditions as they are so not too disappointed to lose Cook (although Strauss was the odds on favourite to go first before the game started).
Onto the afternoon session!

I'd leave the sledging to the Aussies if I were you.

KP in now .. what left arm spinners do India have?
None, Yuvraj didn't get into the squad
Knowing Tendulkar, he could probably bowl left arm spin.
The left handers are Gambhir, Mukund and Zaheer. Unfortunately Mukund and Gambhir bowl right hand leg spin.

KP loves the Indian bowling, he'll make mincemeat of the medium pacers
