Chuvi: "The biggest aspect is the runs have kept coming. The batters haven't been challenged to take risks.. deep covers , long on were in place almost all day yesterday: modern batters take singles at will and also are adept at putting the loose balls away"

Sri: "Agreed to @chuvi point. Rohit should have been more attacking field set yesterday while the deficit was there "

Neal : "England took 3 for 15 yesterday morning to wrap up the Indian innings, the end can come quickly on this pitch. "

Gaurav Singh: "Hoping to see both Indians (West Indians and Indians) to win today against Ashes competitors !!"

Mukesh should be picked for tests also maybe.

Gokul Pradeep V: "When was the last time an England batter made a double-century in India?" That would be 2021, Root in Chennai (again)
