Cook gone! went too far across his stumps, ball clips the thigh pad and on to leg stump. see ya Cooky

[PowerBug]

Jeez England, just put all the pressure on Robson and Ballance to perform. :( Can't let the Indians beat you at home >:(

[PowerBug]

And perform they have (so far). Well played first session, started very slowly, but 88 runs were scored in the 31 overs, not terrible by any means. Most importantly though, 0 wickets fell.

End of over 48 (8 runs)  England 131/1 
SD Robson  59 (138b 8x4 0x6)  .
GS Ballance  59 (144b 7x4 0x6)

I like it England, I like it Sam, I love you Gary. <3

JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY

hahaha holy shower. Jimmy can't bat. the flower is this

[PowerBug]

Jimmy can bat, He went 50 something innings without a duck, more than like every other bowler in history. :P He was a very good batsman, just recently his performances have been below par. Bloke also has the best reverse sweep in the world

Dunno about that, Maxy does it pretty well.  ;)

his high score was 34 after like 130 innings with an average of 10, fair to say he's pretty shower :P

that is a crazy stat about the lack of duckage though. wouldn't make a very good West Coast player

Hehe  ;D

[Bill Manspeaker]

Jimmy gone for 81. Root not out 154. 198 partnership

England all out 496

so after 2 innings', the last wicket partnerships have put on a combined total of 309 runs  :o :o :o :o

[Bill Manspeaker]

England sorta made a game of it with a few wickets but this current partnership is taking it away from them

India 7/298.

India are 259 runs ahead, with 45 overs left in the test

[Bill Manspeaker]

another dodgy decision probably costs Binny a century. when will you learn India

[Bill Manspeaker]

lmao Cook just got a wicket...

...guess who's bowling at the other end PB? he looks pretty handy too
