any other team with the likes of Cook, Trott, Petersen facing the worlds most hapless bowling attack would have easily crossed 600 or even reached 650...
I think England have scored too slow against the weakest attack in the world, and they will have only themselves to blame in case this game heads towards a draw.....

It was a wonderful test match batting by England closing the door on India.It is not that we bowled badly,but they applied themselves well on a slow wicket which is where our batsman erred.India batsman & bowlers have forgotten the art of patience so important to win test matches.Our team is in ODI & T20 mode forever leading to now 10 test losses in 2011-12

England has practiced hard at Dubai under their new coach and all english slectors applied mind,not like BCCI who always selected on past performance,past names,all balling ,batting of india well studied by cook team and Dhonis same old tactics understood well ,indian coach sleeping or???,and BCCI should tell so called great players to first bat properly on spin pitches,then fast pitches next year,we need new captain tactics,new coach and new balling,batting coach immediately oe we will face Whitewash by England itself,Cook is determined and inspiring team members for wins and Dhoni team fighting for ads endoresements,all need to be scaked,all new yougsters,new team can do well than this shmeful exibition everywhere.
