Well, India promoted a left-hander and England respond by bringing back their offie. Two slips in position

Dileep: Indians are defending too much. That's costing them. Neither getting runs nor long partnership. They have to keep attacking to stay in the game. They lost 3 wickets for nothing but defending.

Gaurav: "There goes India chances of winning. Batsmen going into their shell and creating pressure by themselves!!" India's GutViz has taken a wobble, if the comments coming in are anything to go by

"This is very good move by Indian Team Management," reckons Prashanth. "Axar is best batsman along with Rahul and Iyer to plan in spinning tracks. See recent track in Bangladesh."

"Root and Hartley have looked more threatening than Ashwin and Jadeja. This has been a bizarre test match." Bazball can warp perceptions like that, Anon
