That's two days over so three days for England to get 19 wickets. Quite a big ask, tomorrow morning is a big session.

Was it brilliant from England or India just not turning up?

Id give the plaudits to England on this occasion. Cook and Bell got much needed runs, Ballance was excellent, Bulter got 85 on Debut and Broad and Anderson where a great partnership with the ball.
 
Robson? Jordan?

What happens if Anderson gets banned? Big old loss. Plunkett is ok, but he's a step down. Finn seems to be the forgotten man, actually, no, that's Graham Onions! Then there's Tremlett, Bresnan, Stokes.

Absolutely there are still glaring issues with the side. Its only one test its not like we have produced this for a whole series.
Robson needs to be dropped IMO/ Id give Jordan time. As for Finn too expensive and what with all that about knocking the bails off with his knee. Onions I am not sure about.

Jimmy will be a massive loss. We wont be getting 20 wickets without him
 
Robson is a tough one. There aren't that many openers knocking the door down. Carberry and Compton did ok, without ever really setting the world alight. Would either be an improvement? Carberry's age probably counts against him as well.

I think you're right, Jordan deserves a bit of time, but I'm not sure about him.
 
ramps new is new england batting coach i see! though he is a nice guy and well spoken. he averaged 27 at test level :? although a fc average @ 50 is he right for england? i dunno............

good catch that man. do all 20/20s have this prize for spectators?

That was from NZ so I suspect it was put up by a sponsor. Judging by the minimal crowd I dare say they are trying anything to actually get people to go and watch.

Yeah, he was a strange choice. Graham Thorpe or even Marcus Trescothic would have been better choices.
As for Alec Stewart I think he is too busy with media work, it probably pays more.

thorpe didnt want long stints away as he would of done it he remains our one day coach though. thorpe was an awesome odi player in a broken 90s team.
 
Ahhh, I didn't realise the batting coach actually travelled away with the team. Kind of an obvious need for him to be there now I think about it :oops:
That would obviously rule Trescothic out as well.
