The England Cricket Thread

The token woman commentating on Sky is boring me. They need to stop trying to shoe horn people in that can't commentate for **** just because they have lady bits.

Tbf Bumble just pulled her in for a quick chat.

And to be honest, I like Isa Guha when she's on. She's not scared to rip the pee out of the established male commentators.
 
To be clear it's not because she's a woman, it's because she's boring and had nothing to say and they just shoe horned her in because she's a woman. Isa Guha is great.
 
I am utterly gobsmacked that India dragged themselves back into this game from 7/195 despite Moeen's slaughter.
 
Tuffers (on TMS) just said Cook is key here - commentators curse - and Cooks gone!

Can’t see Cook (or the majority of England’s batting top order tbh) making the next team selection.

I’d have far rather they’d reversed the order, I imagine we’d at least have runs on the board before the inevitable collapse! :D
 
187 ahead, we should be aiming for a lead of just over 300 and it's still achievable with 4 wickets in hand.
 
A lead of 250 is a bloody hard chase on the last day. Not enough time to play too cagey so they’re gonna have to go for their shots. Ali could be the key here. If he gets going on a dry cracking wicket, we could rip through them.
 
BBC said:
India's highest successful run chase to win a Test in England is 174.

Tomorrow's going to be fun. Curran should be able to knock a fair few more onto the target.
