Turning point in the series? Two shite pitches that will suit them next and if they win the toss...

This is the miserable doom and gloom Yorkie in me speaking. He's been very vocal recently ;)

Thing is if India put 300 plus on with the forecast theyll cause problems for England as Shami is a tremendous bowler. I really dont rate root as a captain at all like.

Any of their seamers will cause our piss weak batting problems, especially when we dropped yhe guy who was in form with the bat.
 
The game drifting further away, both these two set and batting well.

Balls doing nothing, no sign of reverse that was mentioned at the start of the day. Bet Root is wishing he’d had a bat now.

They couldn't believe their luck getting put in man. All the Indian pundits were saying win the toss and bat. Good old England, always give a sucker a break

Ball usually does a bit at Trent bridge and it was overcast conditions but I'd have batted. Ah well we'll see how England go about batting tomorrow. Few of the batsmen need scores

Tbf England ride their luck a lot with conditions. If the conditions suit they will skittle anybody. If they dont theyd struggle to bowl county teams out never mind India. Look at the difference to before lunch and now.

Hes a very poor bowler. Gets wickets in odis cos batsmen attack him. Tests are a dofferent story. Hes shite

True but could say the same about pretty much every test nation. Most are very good at home and dogshit away, Pakistan have been the team I've been most impressed with touring here in recent years
