Bishoo gets a wicket with his first ball in test cricket. He looks a really good leggie.

I'd have turned over from listening to Bumble and Warney, only they don't start the coverage until now! Shambles.

Yeah, he looks really promising. I like the fact he's so unflappable. Only really got two balls in circulation at the moment though - I know he's young though.

Kohli is gone.

WI go into lunch the happier side. 69/4.

by Brass Monkey Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:05

Kin 'ell. That's nuts, first team or no.

by Henry Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:06

He also looks a little bit like a gremlin, so fair play to him.

I dunno. Maybe it's only me that can see it.

So, Vijay, Mukund and Kohli all fail to varying degrees. And we have Raina to follow. suicide

by Brass Monkey Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:11

Good call he's gremlinesque. Just seen his wicket, poor shot though. Decent delivery though.

by Brass Monkey Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:19

You know what, all awful shots. Really dire. Only seen the wickets admittedly, but there wasn't one dismissal I'd give to the bowler. What were all of them thinking? Don't get me wrong, I rate Rampaul, Edwards and Bishoo but it's the first day of the Test FFS - the first session! Three playing miles away from their bodies and the worst was that slappish drive to point - what the hell?

by doremi Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:21

We just don't 'do' first tests.

Raina FFS.

by Henry Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:25

I've got a feeling Raina will make runs today. Just got a feeling.......

You have so many feelings Trev.

by Henry Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:41

Aye, none of them attributed to a well put together Colombian housemate who this evening I tried to woof into sucking my dick. I feel....It's a shame.

by Gary 111 Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:47

Was that an out of body experience for Dravid? - looks like he was channeling Afridi there after lunch - 10 runs and out in the first over.

by Henry Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:48

Slipped some coke into his goat curry?

by DJ_Smerk Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:55

Goddim, Bishoo strikes twice!

West Indies are all over this.

by Henry Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:55

Great stuff from the Gremlin!

by Brass Monkey Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:55

WTF??? Toni out now.

by Chivalry Augustus Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:56

I like watching Bishoo bowl. Can we steal him? Kidnap him and force him to play county cricket until he's English.

Dhoni lunged at it a bit though, pretty average batting. He's no Matt Prior.

by DJ_Smerk Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:56

Make that three times.

Dhoni holes out.

by doremi Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:57

Bishoo - 3 wickets.

India - ******.

by Gary 111 Mon 20 Jun 2011, 18:57

Get in Bishoo!

Lovely leg spin bowling. Hope the England selectors are watching!

You think they might try to lure him over the Atlantic with the promise of a County contract, a modern London flat, and sex on tap in the form of Giles Clarke's daughter?

by DJ_Smerk Mon 20 Jun 2011, 19:01

Poor form if that were to ever happen.

by doremi Mon 20 Jun 2011, 19:03

So how long before Raina edges a short ball and/or gets out slogging? 5 overs? 10?

by Henry Mon 20 Jun 2011, 19:05

He'll make 84.
