A better afternoon session for England, but Kohli is still there, not out on 83 & the lead is ever reducing.Tea - Ind 348-6
Vijay eventually fell for 136...

Just the final Test to go. You can't see it going any different to the last 3 to be honest...WICKET - INDIA WIN BY INNINGS AND 36 RUNS

Indeed so,Barney,England are almost at rock bottom.
"How low can we go"......well,we have to use our colonial friends,Australia,as the yardstick in recent years
Australia 85 all out v South Africa,Hobart November 2016
Australia 60 all out v England,Trent Bridge August 2015
Australia 47 all out v South Africa,Cape Town November 2011
Its rumoured the Australian Cricket Board will only be selling tickets for the first 3 days of next years Ashes series !
Yes Zid I had to keep blinking at 8 - 97. I was sure I was watching the Aussies bat.Zidane wrote:At the close of play England are 284-4,which they would gladly have settled for given the poor start they had.
Mooen is still there on 120 with Stokes on 5..........Root out for 88 and Bairstow 49,so honours just about even on day 1.
Meanwhile in Brisbane,its Australia who have a slight advantage at the end of the second day.
Australia 429 Pakistan 97-8
Neither Stokes nor Buttler offered much this morning & Moeen finally fell for 146.Lunch
Eng 352-7 (Dawson 27, Rashid 8 )
Very much better second session from England.Tea - Eng 452-8
& a quick end to England as Broad does the unforgivable & gets himself run out.. Ball follows swiftly & Dawson is marooned on 66.Eng 477 all out
India navigated the 20 overs without any difficulties. England tried 6 bowlers during that time & none appeared to do anything that threatened the batsmen's composure..Close of play - India 60-0
India 417 runs behind (Rahul 30, Parthiv 28)
