England in India 2021

[thegreenhell]

Back to Sky for the T20 and ODI series, starting on Friday. At least they are all day/night so on an a sensible time for most UK viewers.

I hope the shortened Tests haven't put C4 off bidding for more live cricket in the future.

I hope C4 get some more in the future.

Wonder what the viewing figures were like compared to what sky get. ?

T20 starts today. At least we are expecting a short match now!

[SydneyBridge]

Looking forward to these matches
Bowling first today

Just seen Zimbabwe trail Afghanistan by 234 runs with 10 wickets remaining, go Afghan.

Damn, I didn't realise the T20's weren't on Ch4. Damn and blast.

Good start by England. I’m surprised Archer can bowl with all that bling round his neck.

[thegreenhell]

Great start.

[SydneyBridge]

Love the silence for the wickets..

[TheAngryDog]

Kohli has been like a bunny in the head lights during the Test series, and now during the T20s. Love it.

Nice to see Jordan, Rashid, Morgan and Wood back on my screen. Morgan really is a fantastic captain, you’d go the extra mile for a skipper like that.

Forgot about Jason Roy

Malan too ! Was in great form in the last set of matches, lets see how they are now.

Low score from India (well on paper anyway)

[warch]

Awesome catch by Malan at the death. India crowd are a joyless bunch when things aren’t going their way.

[Baron Greenback]

Took their time to get the winning runs and shame not on tv or radio!

[Gargamel]

That is an absolute smashing !

Bairstow just looks a different player in T20

[Smollet]

Good to see Roy and YJB find form.
The test series started in a similar style as well

Indeed, let’s hope it doesn’t all go downhill from here.

Would it be ethical to clone Adil Rashid so we can have one for limited overs and one for Test matches?

I think Morgan’s squads look much more confident and self assured than the Test team. I was going to say happier but Jason Roy never looks happy, even when he’s on fire like he was today.

[Gargamel]

England 97/3 with 8 more to come. I am still hoping for 170+ but we are losing wickets before doing much real damage.

Anyway, looks another odd pitch so maybe not the easiest batting track.

[Baron Greenback]

Kholi dropped on 10 wonder if that going to haunt us.

The answer to that is yes
