England V India ***Clash of the Heavyweights*** Test, T20 and ODI Series

Still quite disappointed that TC is not posting.

Fair enough, the team is losing but it's time to face up to facts not cry in the corner.

Edit - Actually, he hasn't logged on since the 4th Aug so perhaps there are other reasons.

They aren't just losing they are being humiliated. They deserve no respect whatsoever.

Bit difficult to post when you set yourself up for a fall as massive as this :p
 
You'd have to be some killjoy to declare whilst Cook is still in the crease. As someone on the Grauniad's coverage said, the fact that Strauss lets his batsmen get their milestones before declaring must surely be better for team spirit and morale than stopping them short.
 
Agreed, they are scoring too slowly for it to not make sense for Strauss to declare. You want a good few overs at the Indian openers in this light, and with a relatively new ball.
 
:D :D :cool:

666/6

Lol epic stat from Cricinfo

"When England reached 672, we had tripled the Indian first innings score. If England reach 709, they will have racked up 1,000 more runs than India over the course of the series so far." Courtesy Ed Dixon
:p

Would be funny if Strauss declared with Cook on 332 or 333 (Gooch's high score being 333)

Also Warne's twitter is hilarious, grumpy git should shush and enjoy England's success. (http://twitter.com/#!/warne888)
