India have bigger problems than England with the batting. Rahane, Rahul, Vijay and Dhawan utterly useless.

Two poor sides.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Compared to who?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not compared to any team. Both are only good on home soil. Neither have much bottle. Both capable of horrendous collapses. Any half decent test side chasing 190 with over 2 days left should get it at a canter. England would be the same if they were chasing 190. Wouldn`t get anywhere near it.
Rahane has no business playing at either of the two balls he got out to in this test.
Amount of pressure on Kohli must be immense. These batters have let him down big time.
Kin ell...just got back...facker is still there

The balls to Cook would have got most left handed batsmen out, nothing he could have done really. Rahane went fishing with the team in such a precarious position. That’s unforgivable as vice captain of the side.

Fair enough mate. Does seem to be an issue with modern day test teams to be honest. Like you say, you don't get many proper test batsmen these days.
Hopefully Kohli can bring it home tomorrow
It'll be an interesting hour
Kohli yet again shows why he is among the best.
Tbh hope this doesn’t turn into the Test vs SA where we were chasing 200 and collapsed to around 135 all out after Kohli got out. Our batsmen have been a disgrace this game.

No problem. A Boycott ir a Barrington wouldn't go amiss.
What a great days cricket!
Just got back from Egbaston. This one's really in the balance
Could be a interesting hour or so tomorrow morning
Pretty even game so fair, I think India maybe slight favourites with Kohli still there but anything can happen.
It’s been doing my head in trying to work out who Curran reminds me of - a young Irfan Pathan. Left arm banana swing bowler who is very apt with the bat as well.
All these years India have never had a bowling attack that can work as a pack. We have 6-7 really good bowlers who can be picked in any single match. But india’s batting has almost gone back to the 90s.
Whatever the outcome of tomorrow England will easily find a way to win this series cause all they need to do is get Kohli out cheaply and we would struggle to get to 100.
It's a shame this match is going to finish most likely in the first session today as there has been a great ebb and flow to this game. Neither side has managed to gain complete control which sets up a fascinating finale. You have got to think Kohli will be there till the end but will that be enough for India.
Annoyingly I'm going to miss the first hour of play today!
I think it’s 65/35 in India’s favour
Ticket prices for this game have been a faaacking joke. £56 for most parts of the ground is a disgrace - trying to take advantage of the India supporters love for the game. Glad to see the ground not full showing even Indian fans aren’t happy with prices. The rich idiots at Lords and Oval will pay over the odds though I bet when those games come round.
