It is very tough to change the flow of game ,especially in test cricket once your opponent takes the lead.India allowed England to come back from 4th day of Ahmedabad test & since then it is only they & not us who are dominating the series.The chances of a revival looks bleak as most of the players in this so called famous batting line up responsible for past home wins are out of form or hanging around due to past deeds or mercy of board members.England is playing as a unit with clear goal to win the series after 28 yrs & may not let go of this opportunity unless team India raise its game by few notches which is unlikely

For england Broad ruled out: in any event he was not going to play. but Finn doubtful with some back problem not good news for eng but may be good for india. no problems with Swann monty or Jimmy though
Drop Sehwag and give chance to ajinkya or murali vijay. Sehwag never lived up to saving a match or consistently stuck to the wicket to defend it when the team needed him the most. He still plays with irresponsible brashness and non committal attitude.
We dont want new better new players ,captain or FDI.We want our old heroes and policies.So no wonder Congress wins, tendulkar and Dhoni cannot be removed.
It is good for the captain to have lodged a complaint about one of his opening batsmen and leaking the news to the media just on the eve of the test match. Nice bro... u r the most idiot cap India had ever had
though mumbai and nagpur represents different cric. associations, both are in maha. What is the logic of having to host two test in one state??? Bangalore or Chennai could have been the choice.

it has always been the Bombay lobby detrimental to Indian players.Always played for records.
Nothing is going to be happened NEW at Nagpur also, even India plays with five spinners. MSD and his team cannot do any miracles with the mighty ENG at Nagpur. It appears that we require to import some new bowlers to OUT Mr. COOK. MSD should resign from test cricket. How many more number of tests we require to bare with VIRAT? Why only YUVI is sacked? Why not VIRAT and MSD? I think it is very high time to call back DRAVID and LAXMAN at least for NAGPUR test to stand at 2-2 position
