🏏 India vs England, 4th Test-- JSCA Stadium Complex, Ranchi 🏏 - Page 52

"Should Foakes not try to hit and get a few runs - sooner or later he or Bashir is going to get a ball with their name on it?" Foakes is backing his method here, Andy Jackson. Worked for him in the first innings

"Are we missing Bumrah's yorkers here?" Whatever we're doing, in all walks of life, we're always missing Bumrah's yorkers, Milind

England lead by 190 runs.

Here's Richard, with his hammer and nails: "'Foakes is backing his method'… the essence of Bazball: be who you are. And if you aren't sure who you are, here's the opportunity to find out..."

India slowing things down with the field and umpire Kumar Dharmasena asks them to speed up

Ashwin to Foakes, out Caught&Bowled!! Leading edgeee and taken. Dinesh Karthik on air was asking for a carrom ball for a long time. Ashwin dishes one out now and Foakes offers a return catch. Foakes thought he could have the on-drive, but the bat turned in his hands on impact and ended up slicing it straight to Ashwin who leaps to complete a single catch. Fourth for Ashwin! Foakes c and b Ashwin 17(76)

Ashwin to Foakes, THATS OUT!! Caught&Bowled!!

Come on boys one more left

"Can't help but feel this is a really flawed plan for India," muses Sonny. "Foakes has one of the best defences in the England side and almost endless patience. Looking for a magic ball and giving one ball at Bashir while they creep closer to 200 is creating a rod for their own backs"
