India's bowling this morning has been ordinary while Buttler and Broad have been positive.

Approaching 300, this Buttler / Broad partnership could be pivotal

Hope I am not speaking too soon but hopefully Buttler will pass Cooks score and Broad will get his 50



ps.. Good morning for England.

On this wicket, with the amount of movement that the bowlers are getting 300 is a very good score.

India have thrown away the game in that session.

Pity, deserved a ton. Think that score might prove to be much better than it looks.

Always amazes me the people who think any sport is easy.

"All they need to do is X".
"Why did they try that shot?".
"My nan could have done better than that".

Cricket can be a game of fine lines. The ball may grip a little bit more than expected, keep low, rear up, etc.but some smart arse thinks "all they need to do is block" FFS. They are playing (cricketers/footballers) at a higher level than anyone who posts on here, yet the keyboard warriors know so much :shrug:

So why did he decide to stop supporting him as Buttler headed towards his Century?

Mid Off in and men out on the Boundary, its not as if the delivery wasn't Telegraphed.

Ask him that..I was concentrating on the positive ..98 for ninth wicket is pretty impressive and Broad played his part

Boris at the match, now on the big screen and murmurings of discontent from the crowd.

Jimmy Anderson seems to be getting better as he gets older. This spell is just brilliant.
