Often outnumbered, never outgunned.

Think England might get skittled tomorrow
I think that counts as skittled! Disgusting shots by most of the ‘batsmen’. I put that in inverted commas as the first role of a batsman is to stop the ball hitting the wickets! Our jokers couldn’t! (And the ball wasn’t turning round corners)

Yeah, difficult pitch granted, but that doesn’t appear to be the reason most of them got out. Poor shots. They need to cut that out. No shame in getting out to peach deliveries, but come on, stop throwing your wickets away.

Well well well...
I still have India around 55/45, but if Rahul goes in the first 15-20 mins tomorrow it's certainly game on.
Carse has hit some form at the right time.
Yesterday afternoon it looked like this was heading for a bore draw. 14 wickets in a day. Always fascinates me how pitches change over time.

Carse certainly had his dander up! That spell has probably saved him the axe.
Tomorrow morning will be interesting. Rahul and Pant could win or lose this in short order!

England now overwhelming favourites. Never count your chickens before they hatch, but what an effort.
They’d really have to work hard to throw this away now.

I’m not so sure. Jadeja and Reddy are batting properly and making this look relatively easy.

I did it too in another chat. That’s fucking teamwork 😎 Get in. This’ll be one helluva win if we get past the line!

Unfortunately India are now cruising. Think they are going to do it.
