India are the biggest bunch of F&%^$#@D Cheating Wankers in World Cricket!
Theyve taken excessive appealing to a new level. They pressured umpire Oxenford who by the way should NEVER umpire another Test EVER into giving 2 bat pad appeals out off Ashwins bowling after the whole Indian side go running and screaming towards him insisting it was out. Both were reviewed and shown that the ball had missed the bat by a MILE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its an utter JOKE that they consistently appeal, knowing full well its not out.
Ashwin has the most punchable face of any cricketer ive ever known. The sight of the F&^%&&%G Cheating Prick appealing every 2nd ball makes me pewk. :YMSICK:

Those two decisions giving Bairstow out were simply awful, especially the second one that I saw where it hit the pad then it was caught by short leg, was no where near the bat. Thankfully DRS puts the Indians back in their place (well for a little while at least).

Since when did the Indians finally agree to using DRS?

Even Sunil Gavaskar had had enough of their excessive appealing yesterday, he sounded embarrassed on the coverage.

That's saying something as he's as bias as it comes.
Great player but can't stand him commentating.

Yep, he's a smug looking turd. What's with Ali at 4 Batman? I can understand the Poms want to squeeze in the extra bowler but he's no number 4 and never will be. Do you reckon his cards might be marked when they get home and Rashid gets the spinners spot? With Woakes and Stokes both producing as allrounders depth in batting at home shouldn't be an issue.

It shows our lack of batting depth plus the lack of quality spinners meant we were desperate to squeeze in an extra bowler which has not helped anyway. He won't be number 4 when we get home, I think they will stick with mooen as the spinner but rashid has been by far our best spinner on this tour so I'd be happy if they stuck with him. We are lucky to have some quality all rounders. I reckon our team for the ashes will be:

Cook
Hammeed
Root
Jennings (maybe but not really sure)
Bairstow
Stokes
Butler
Mooen
Woakes
Broad
Anderson

Its a good side when not on the subcontinent as plenty of depth in bowling and batting but still rely heavily on root.

Moeen Ali 71 not out. Batting well for a bloke that ain't a number 4.

Hes a very handy player and a good number 6-8 player. He just struggles against good quality quick bowling which he will face against the aussies and south africa next year.

England's version of Greg Matthews? Enjoying listening to Sunil Gavaskar whinging about DRS, never a happy little vegemite when India don't get things their own way.

At county he has been a very handy number 3 and opener as well.

I reckon it's a myth he can't bat in the top order at international level because he started his career as a lower order bat

Christ, imagine bowling a fricking howler like that to a bloke on 199. Then imagine getting him out on it lol. Staggering what can happen with a loose one at times.
