Auckland 2013 for Broad. That was the Steve Finn match saving 50 match I believe

One of my favourite games that, was Matt Prior with a match saving 100, proper celebrations after final ball

That was Monty dividing for a run and still being half way down the pitch

England around that period were so good at grinding out 5 day draws when not playing well

Tbh it’s not a Test or series I took much notice of. Was a student at the time, sharing a house with some good mates but none of them cricket fans, and had “other” things on my mind like booze and lasses. Same with India 2012 unfortunately

Don’t see it at all now, from any side. Going away and grinding out results

Lucky bastard!

Always chose cricket over girls, I wouldn't advise it.

Was very much a blip I must say. Never gave a shite before uni, always cricket first, and reverted back to my old self since

On that India 2012, I dunno if its because India hold the rights and its too expensive, but I have never watched it since watching it live at the time

by far England's best win in my life time

Would love to sit down and watch them again, wonder if there is a DVD

Never come across anything either unfortunately. Just adds to its mythical status I suppose but would like to be able to see it. Indians have probably erased all the footage. After the way they were going on in the build up and after the first Test I imagine they feel rather sheepish about it
Half the Aussie crowd with f***ing mullets man :lol:

Not the best of morning sessions for Pakistan. 32 runs from 26 overs for the losd of four wickets on a pitch that really isn't doing much. While one of the bowlers has a broken foot.
 
still a fairly modest total this for India, considering its Oz, not often 300-350 wins you a test

long way to go

Edit: and I know what comment you are going to make about the bowling attack he faced, noted, you dont need to say it.

Jadeja is just a fascinating cricketer isn’t he? He has it all. And will probably never been seen as hitting his potential. Despite 200 odd wickets at 24.

There was a period when India played on turners (they've moved away from that a bit with their seamers) where it was virtually impossible to win, with Ashwin and Jadeja turning it from day 1

2 good cricketers like
Urgh, after all that work, gives it a way to the bully boy short ball stuff

As I said earlier, India done OK but still a modest score that

I think that’s a really poor shot. Ego took over
