You have to admit, no television program can beat the US version of "half-time cricket discussion" at two in the morning, especially when a teenager calls up and sends out a message to her mother, on-air, in front of the entire world, that she is being dearly missed. :D

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

After the ashes england gained reputation of no.1 team, they can not afford to loose 2 successvive series, I think it ain't gone be walk in park for india, even with the limited resources of england. If eng score aroung 375, which seems possible right now, I think they gone give india tough time.

375 is a long way. Every run is bonus right now.

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

England never looked comfortable playing in a batting pitch. This is not good, may be because their best batsmen Micheal V and Marcus are out. Also, bowling and pressure was very consistent. Paul Collingwood played 200+ balls and made 80 some runs, this is not good. If Indians get comfortable..they'll easily make runs. Only England bowlers can make a match out of this because Indian batting line is very long and capable.

Has there ever been an instance in Test Cricket where a Sardaar jee bowled to another Sardaar jee? This Bhaajju- Monty duel could be a new record of sorts.

Re: England vs India - Ist Test Match

India better bat well, or they could be in for some trouble. England has bowling to rattle India
