Alex 35083 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 why is that, did he say? they have a reputation for producing wickets that assist turn, but on all the recent tours i can recall they have tended to produce featherbed pitches that result in high scoring, boring test matches I guess because the batsmen tend to be such good players of spin as much as anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 That India batting lineup at the time was something else like. Despite Sachin being the dahling I always had a massive soft spot for Dravid like. Seems such a decent bloke too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21924 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 The wall. Then you had very, very special Laxman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21924 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Sehwag was my personal favourite. I loved how he just played his natural game. He'd have it coached out of him opening in England, playing like that. Absolutely scintillating when he got in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Used to love Sehwag's swagger like. Tremendous batsmen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21924 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Good to see us skittle them out for below 500 given how they were positioned overnight. Need root to go big now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21924 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 root's fault for calling him back for a second, apparently. i've only just got it on now. my first chance to have a proper look at duckett. so far, he's looked very positive in defence, always looking to get willow on ball.

David Kelly 1245 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Aye Root dropped him right in it for me. Which is a shame because while he was scoring very slowly, he hadn't looked in any trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21924 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 there goes the kid duckett, castled playing down the wrong line. need a responsible innings from root now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1245 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Definite technical issue for him that he needs to work on. That's at least two of his three dismissals over there that have been exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21924 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 ROOOOOOT. he looks in good touch this series. we'll need him to go big here if we're going to make a match of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 so far, he's looked very positive in defence, always looking to get willow on ball.His technique when defending against the off spinner looks flawed at the moment. Not getting anywhere near in line with the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
