I am not sure we bowled that badly. The openers are allowed to play well.
Oh dear
Yep. Good pitch, fast outfield, tiring bowlers, softening ball…. Good batsmen.

A really bad decision at the toss by Stokes and co. Fair play to the young Indian batsmen, put themselves in a really strong position already.
Indian version of Bazball at the end. We need to start well tomorrow or this one can only be a draw or Indian win.
Can’t see any other outcome to be honest. English bowling just isn’t good enough.

Yeah England will have to bat as well to stand any chance and it’s likely to be 67-3.
Like I said. England are gonna get spanked.
Seems a road.
Draw is the likely result.
It might turn or we might throw wickets away.
Rishab Pant’s century celebration 
Really annoyingly i had a ticket for the test at Lords, a ground I’ve always wanted to go to.
My brothers stag do is the same weekend so had to sell it 
A test at Lords is a very special thing to do.

Straight forward stumping chance missed.
Not this one though. Wait until England play a team at their level like Sri Lanka maybe (no offence).
Aah shucks. Nair goes
I support both teams (and India when they face each other) so it was a win win for me
Unfortunate way for pant to get out. Probably missed seeing the ball
Clouds and movement just when we might get a bat!

Yeah. India better declare now.
Idiotic dismissals though.
Chasing a widish ball for karun
Pant probably missed seeing the ball
