England vs India (fourth test) The Oval


It’s more they’ve offered nowt all series. I’m fine to criticise the rest too, but at least Pope, Hameed, Malan and Burns have made a score this summer (in far fewer chances in most cases)

Bairstow is our 2nd top run scorer int he seires aint he?

Its weird mate, its not our issue like

unless he can bowl 90mph or bat in the top 3 maybe dont focus on our number 7 as the root of our problems

its just an agenda you have

He’s made one 50. He made 57. I haven’t looked at the accumulated runs.

It’s not an agenda, I’ve just said I’m fine with him at 7.

Its just clearly not the issue in this game, and its a weird thing to focus on

it happens after every defeat

blame the number 6 or 7. I dont get it.

SMB obsessed with the wicket keepers
8 Eng batsmen clean bowled in this match. The Indians haven't had one.

great stat

I’ll repeat it again. I don’t have an issue with him keeping.

Neither are specialist batsmen however. It’s what I have said all along
 
What is worrying is the aussies bowling unit pisses on indias and this wicket is basically what we will be up against in australia. I mean we all knew they were going to win anyway but it could get messy

The bowling is almost the bigger issue for me

Maybe were a bit unfortuanate the way the weather worked out, baking up the pitch, meaning it reversed today but we didnt move the ball

Its easy to blame the batters, we often do, but thats a special spell by Bumrah, backed up by a spinner going at 2 an over bowling tight, we didnt do that.

Most of the Indian batsman would have got out to some balls in that Bumrah spell they just dont get to face it on a flat pitch
