England vs India Test series

[gzagee]

The battle to be No1 Test nation begins tomorrow at Lords with a couple of landmarks set to be completed.

The 2000th test match
Tendulkar will be hoping to complete his 100th test century

[SE13]

Good tonnage for Dravid - Would have been nice to have seen Tendulkar hit one at Lords to round off his career, but there's always the second innings.

Dominant lead for England, though I'm a bit disappointed with them missing out the follow-on.

I know what you mean, I always worry about England declaring too early in these situations. The follow on would have been ideal.

My view of it yesterday was to try get a couple of wickets before the end of play and I agreed with the move. although now it didn't pay off it turns out the wrong decision, ha.

Looks like a nice lead though so should be fine. Not seen any today cos of work and am working tomorrow so won't see that either.

Sharma is having a devastating spell right now. He's got 2 in one over.

[Bristol_Gunner]

Prior and Broad steadying the ship now a little. If England can have another 100/120 and make India bat for a whole day i recon we will win, but it is fairly even atm.

[Git]

Cracking partnership from Broad and Prior.

[Inchpräctice]

Prior gets his century in style.

Great innings from Broad as well.
Can't believe we were 65-5 and turned it round to 269-6.

[Git]

Certainly seems like England have an ability to dig themselves out of the shit these days.

Granted, we still have days where we play utter shit - but what sporting side doesn't?

[SE13]

It's an improbable target given the time, but I still think perhaps they should have held the declaration again.

Could do with a couple tonight though.

Is Tendulkar actually going to bat? Last I heard was a stomach bug (or some such)

[Git]

Good start.... 19-1.

[gzagee]

Quite an interesting match we have upon us. So many twists and turns already.

[VCC]

is surly out of India's reach only England can win

[gzagee]

If Tendulkar is fit and The Wall plays another obdurate innings don't discount a draw.
