England vs India ODI Series

Good start now this. We’ve had luck, mostly roy

35 for 0 off 6

roy 22 off 22

bairstow 12 off 14

Definitely a stroke of luck, but Roy responded perfectly to it. Hope this is his turning point as it’d be great to have him back in form
 

..

40 for 0 off 7
..

bumrah drops Roy. Difficult c and b chance . This could be Roy’s day now

dropped on 23
..

Bairstow down , hit in the gangulys

he’s there today with tendulkar . Remember the shirt swirling back in the day from him?

sadly Roy has gone, a casual flick off the legs off pandya, straight down long legs throat . Off the middle as well

goes for 23

41 for 1 off 8.5
 
Roy looked like a wicket waiting to happen. Didn't expect him to go like that though. Was just waiting for an edge or a played on.
Agreed. He got some luck early, then thundered a great six,dropped by Bumrah as well. I thought this was his day

hopefully bairstow and root can bat the next 30 overs
.

harry is bowling for India now at root
..

review for a run out. Kohli throw hits but root was at least a foot in

52 for 1 off 11.5

root 7

bairstow 21
..

bairstow looking well in, plays a wild swipe to leg and is clean bowled by chahal. Poor shot selection imo

38 off 38

72 for 2 14.4

review for lbw on root. Given out on field

Same shot as bairstow off chahal, swiping to leg. hit middle stump half way up. Again wrong shot selection

82 for 3 off 17.4

root 11 lbw
 
.

this now is at a similar point to the World Cup final. Stokes and buttler at the crease. 240 odd that day was competitive. I feel 280 plus today will be needed

by the way, it’s three years to the day from that final.
