England V India Series 2018

Sam Curran's 78 not out saved England from total collapse.
He's also got a couple of brothers (Tom & Ben) who play county cricket, so it may be wise to get them in the team as well.

Don't think there have been that many instances of three brothers playing for England in Cricket before

Other sports it may have happened I'm sure

Had to laugh at something I read yesterday; someone criticising Sam Curran for failing to convert another fifty.

It's happened in Rugby League and there are 3 brothers who currently play Union for the All Blacks

Current score India 92-2 ... Kohli has now reach 6000 runs in test cricket

The 2nd day saw 5 wickets for the recalled Moeen Ali as India were bowled out for 273, a lead of 27. India had been 142/2, but also 195/8. Considering that England were 86/6 in their innings, the first innings deficit of 27 could have been a lot worse.

Time to hide behind the sofa today as England are batting again .
But for how long? .

Hmmmmmmm

Indian quick bowler Sharma could be decisive in this test.

He bowls over the wickets to a lot of the England left handers. So he could get stuck into the England batsmen or he could rough up the wicket enough for Moheen Ali to turn off his footmarks.

He could either be India's hero or villian

At lunch England were 92-3 Jennings was given LBW off the last ball of the mornings play

England are all out for 271, which is not bad considering it was 122/5 at one point. India need 245 to win and to level the series.

The match is still in the balance

The tea time score is 126-4 Kohli is finally out for 58.
India need 119 and England need 6 wickets
