by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 9:35 am

First topic message reminder :

England win the toss and bat, in a must win game, after two big win's for India.
Both teams unchanged.

Getting a feeling that this is going to be close. 94 of 80, an interesting last face of the game coming up.

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:53 pm

Hello, Finny's got another one, and it's Rahane too, big wicket, and well done Finny clap

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:53 pm

Maybe just maybe, 3 down

by **Fists of Fury** Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:54 pm

Go on Finny!

by Duty281 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:54 pm

Good boy Finny! 3 down, get stuck in!!!

by Duty281 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:56 pm

Now we need someone else to step up, I'm looking at Tim Bresnan!

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:57 pm

still can't get our lines right to Kohli...

by **Fists of Fury** Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:58 pm

Bresnan needs to be dropped, for me. He has looked very loose and very tired in this series. Give the man a break.

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:59 pm

wooooooooooooo hoooooooo

by **Fists of Fury** Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:59 pm

Told you Bresnan was awesome!

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 4:59 pm

Raina gone, slaps it straight to cover where KP takes a sharp catch above his head. Bresnan strikes again, stick at it Duty, you're doing a great job Very Happy

And he's looking straight back! Here we go, here we go!

Done it again lol

by **Fists of Fury** Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:00 pm

Problem now is that DHoni is coming in...one of the best finishers in world cricket.

C'mon England, let's stick it up 'em!

What a lovely jinx Very Happy

by msp83 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:00 pm

India trying to do a South Africa here??? Everything depends on the captain now. Didn't show enough intent earlier, and that is coming back to trouble them now.

How many faces lol.

Afternoon lads:

Just got in and it looks like England may have gotton themselves into a good position here

by Duty281 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:02 pm

Get Patel on, he will get rid of Dhoni, I'm telling you! Listen to me Cooky!

Two more quick wickets, then maybe.

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:04 pm

oh Bresnan, lets one straight through. Surprised Finn isn't bowling out...

by eirebilly Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:05 pm

I see that Englands fielding is still an issue then.

Have they played well Skyeman?

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:06 pm

rubbish over from Dernbach, gifts the initiative right back to India Doh

by Duty281 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:06 pm

Not the best over, 70 off of 60. Need to get Dhoni out.

by msp83 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:07 pm

England need to do a lot of work on their fielding. They weren't this poor before the series. Never was the greatest of fielding sides, but here they are being outclassed by India, and not many teams have to face that!!!!.

by msp83 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:07 pm

Good over for India.

by eirebilly Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:08 pm

I really hope that England win this, just to keep the series alive

by Gregers Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:08 pm

Deadweight's innings was actually fairly decent today however he really shoudn't have got out when he did.

If we lose it's more trotts fault today

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:09 pm

Batted well, maybe could have got 20-30 more runs, not enough boundaries, in last 10 overs, but fielding at times weak againe and Bresnan looking tired.

by eirebilly Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:10 pm

Same story for Engalnd then is it, 20-30 runs too short Wink

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:12 pm

Trott got a good 98, but he was on 72 at 40 overs, just could'nt get the ball away.

by Duty281 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:13 pm

Come on Swanny, this is your moment. Swann will tear you apart again!

by msp83 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:13 pm

Not good signs thee, from Dhoni. Struggling to get Patel away. Won't be surprised if he ends up doing something silly.

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:13 pm

outttttttttttttttttt

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:13 pm

GONE! Kohli LBW, that looked absolutely plumb to me, huge wicket for England. Swanny strikes!

by Duty281 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:14 pm

Swann, I love you again!

by eirebilly Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:14 pm

Trott gets the runs and is very valuable but he rarely takes the attack to the bowlers. I see Patel did a good job though\

Got him

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:15 pm

yep, plumb

by msp83 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:16 pm

Think that's it for India, Kohli gone, and Dhoni not looking good!. Samit Patel the man of the match for me.

by Duty281 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:16 pm

Now Patel to get Dhoni...

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:16 pm

If they can just get Dhoni soon, then game on.

by eirebilly Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:19 pm

Its going down to the wire

by msp83 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:20 pm

England fielding continues to stay poor. Dhoni of old, there would have been no questions of whether, it used to be when. But these days although he does have the power and shots, he needs some time, and a good start. Not looking good for India here.

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:20 pm

at last England tight on the single

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:22 pm

fantastic over from Swanny clap

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:22 pm

Wheres that Sonic!!

by skyeman Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:25 pm

Need a wicket NOW to make it close.

by Mad for Chelsea Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:25 pm

not really sure Patel should have been bowling that over, but it wasn't a disaster either...

by msp83 Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:25 pm

Graeme Swann just showing wat a class act he is. Does Jadeja rememer all those big shots he played during the IPL? Think he may have to use some of those, Dhoni isn't looking good at the moment. If it is of any relief, Graeme Swann is done for the day!.

by Gregers Thu 20 Oct 2011, 5:25 pm

How have England got back into this?

India failing with the bat atm...
