If we can score 250+ in our first innings we'll run them hard IMO. Big if though. I think they'll struggle against Yasir Shah if we can take the games to the 5th day. Looking forward to it, hope we can bounce back from the disappointing NZ series. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiviGer 648 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Going to need a lot more than 250 in the first innings to get anything out this match is going! Interesting to see Jimmy Anderson sitting the last test match out, said its due to stiffness. More to do with the Kohli incident I think. 4-0 victory looks nailed on for India. England can't cope with Ashwin or Kohli. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 No danger we're winning but it's this real hot and cold inconsistency that pisses me off. If we had put up this effort in the first innings this game would be heading for a draw and we move on to Melbourne where I fancy our chances with the pink ball under lights. It doesn't bounce as much but swings more which suits us perfectly. all that said...what a Herculean effort from Asad Shafiq who becomes the first number 6 test batsman to record 9 centuries Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiviGer 648 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Pakistan got close! Can't believe the last wicket was a run out. Get your money on England to collapse tomorrow. Incredible score from India. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiviGer 648 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 What's everyone's thoughts on Cook? He's not exactly had an outstanding series. Time to hand the captaincy over to Root or stick by him over the summer and have the Ashes next winter as his last series? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let him do what he does best by batting and being vice cook deserves the chance to retain the ashes , unless we get whitewashed at home by the Saffers TEFTONG 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a defining moment for Cook. He wins that goes in to the Ashes full of confidence. Or on the other hand if England get hammered Cook out and Root in for an Ashes series. Big summer coming up for England test wise. I think Cook needs a settled opening partner. Whether that is Hameed or Jennings I'm not sure.
