India v England, 2nd Test, Mumbai, 23-27 November, 2012

This happened in Abu Dhabi, England getting a lead. It is a rerun.

Jimmy out LBW, incorrectly, probably.

Go Monty!

Monty go.

357/4, 413ao. Not great.

Handy lead that.

Surely even he can't have his head so far up his posterior.

Broad should have fallen on his sword and crossed with Prior, all out coming up very soon now.

And so it is. At least Monty went down in style.

Well that tail wagged.....not

A lead of 86 is a very good lead given in SRT, Shitwag and Ghati we have 3 walking brainless wickets these days....You would think Pujara's off day is just around too....India needs 350 for any real chance of putting England in trouble. India must bat till stumps tomorrow. But batting except Pujara has been real brittle for a while now.

KP and Cook - 308/2.

Everyone else plus extras - 105/8.

Broad coming in at 8 in away Tests is crazy. It should be Swann.

Shame on Pommie tail for gifting twat Bhajji cheap wickets. X-mas came early for this who would have otherwise deserved to go this innings wicketless....

India needs 86 runs to avoid innings defeat....

Agreed. Whilst Broad's batting has regressed, Swann's has actually improved. He's showing a lot more application. With 10 & 11 (and being so irresolute, he barely got to face a ball this innings.

Should Bairstow have been out?

Apparently not. England tried to get it revoked, but Dhoni said no.

I wouldn't mind buying a ticket to see someone with their head up their posterior falling on their sword....

Way Monty's bowling we're going to struggle to get past 150-175.

Monts gets Wag.

Good ball, but a dodgy innings.

F*cked

Sachin's looking good.

Swann & Monty, would never have expected this. Wowzers.

Oh shit. 3 and still no lead. 1-1 into the third this.

Ramesh done and dusted. Monty is bunnifying him.

How the mighty have fallen
