India 🇮🇳 vs England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Test Series 2025 (Tendulkar - Anderson Trophy) - Discussion

[Half Human]

Let me JINX India's batting performance today....
They'll baat horribly and will get dismissed in first session itself...
Crawly and Duckett will take through England like a stroll in garden 😁😁

Hope so it works

tHIS jinx IS NOT WORKING. JINX 'em more

Karun Nair’s scores in this series

Leeds: 0 & 20
Edgbaston: 31 & 26
Lord’s: 40 & 14
The Oval: 57 & 17

A series to forget for Karun Nair. Shreyas would have done better I guess.

I would beg to differ. I know his avg is only 25. He has had the starts. Even Sudarshan had a bad series now. But back them both just as Iyer, and they both would do as good as iyer. It's like who edges out the other on form. That's the only thing.

I beg to differ....
if you remove his 300 and 50(in this match), then he has scored merely 150 runs in 12-13 innings which includes a full series in india and one in England

He is just minnow ranji basher...
Even in IPL, except one innings he was very vevy average given his tweet to whole world that "CRICKET... PLZ GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE"
Chance given and was let go in such a series which is full of runs

I agree. Besides Shreyash's aggression would have put pressure on the bowlers for sure

Shreyas having captained t20 and IPL would have been a asset. Not only with batting, but also in captaincy tips.. but ..not this time.

it's a better parameter of consistency...
Gill had 3 good matches and 2 bad ones
whereas jaddu just went into a zone since 2nd match

Will the Siraj catch drop be defining moment in this match?
We all know how quickly these bazzballers can charge the face of game..
They can quickly bring down target from 210 to 100ish within 15 overs and then we'll start going ultra defensive which will make things even easier for England team...
Catches win matches 😏

 

[msd07]

if we lose this match then 2 matches bcoz of Siraj...

STAT: 37- ball 50 by Harry Brook is the joint-third quickest by an England batter against India, and this is his second fastest in terms of balls faced behind 37-ball fifty against New Zealand at Mount Maunganui in 2023.

Easy walk for England, unless Indian bowlers make some miracles. India had many opportunities to grab this series, fielding was big headache during this series.

The pitch is almost dead @BVC. Really sad with all the toss losses. All 5 pitch behaving identically - becoming a batting paradise by 4th innings.

 

[Exewhyzee]

So, it's Anderson all the way it seems. Tendulkar couldn't do much.

 

[Riya]

what the hell just happened in last 2 hours....
brook ran away with the game with slogs and Indian bowlers suddenly caved in

 

[prankster]

This does not feel like a 3-1 series, the way our team has played 😞
