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

[Weebull]

I thought this might peter out into a draw, but god bless India's fabulous impression of 1990's era English cricket.

Singh gone too. Almost over .

No fight whatsoever with Tendulkar gone.

 

[Father Ted]

It's not all doom and gloom for India, another twenty-odd runs and they'll have avoided an innings defeat.

 

[JRS]

As the BBC site update just pointed out - 45 minutes, 51 balls, 5 wickets, just 7 runs. Sums up India this series really.

Well we had to go through it, why not them?!

It beggars belief that this side was number 1 in the world.

 

[platypus]

17 runs to avoid an innings defeat!

 

[Alpherah]

Why are we only using 1 hotspot camera at the Oval? seems odd

 

[mmj_uk]

India lost 5 wickets for 7, they could have knocked 70 with a bit of luck if they played more positively.

 

[Cosimo]

Yes, one more, 275-9.

 

[Weebull]

It's only a matter of time! \o/

EDIT: Also, Swann's five-for. Woooo.

 

[Cosimo]

All over!

 

[Monkeymatt]

All out. Win by an innings and 8 runs.

 

[platypus]

What a turnaround. A fantastic series for England, well done!

 

[ringo747]

Great win! Been an awesome series for England. Amazing stuff.

 

[mmj_uk]

7 wickets for 21 runs, not even England collapsed that badly back in the day?

 

[LOAM]

Stunning.

 

[Alpherah]

Eng's done it all this series.
Won after losing the toss, come back from a first innings defect, innings defeat over India batting second, innings defeat after enforcing the follow on.

 

[nIckEl101]

get in!!

 

[JRS]

Superb stuff from England, abysmal stuff from India all told. "Clash of the Heavyweights" really was a bit of a misnomer.

 

[Alpherah]

Lots of bowled in that Innings
