AC cool English captain made a statement couple of days before that he would like to take a draw in Nagpur. We all saw it today that all English batsman were just playing time none of them offered any wickets to us and no one took any chances. The result is simple India lose if they bat badly and don't show disciple like the english even if they manage to pull of a draw we lose series. Hence the only option for the so called star-studded Indian batting line is to score runs and score them fast. English doesn't want to win this match they want to draw it or you lose it by yourself......

The only other sport where Indians are doing good is Badminton and unfortunately Saina Nehwal lost in her 2nd group match today at the World Superseries tournament, making it almost impossible for her to reach the semi-finals.
So, perhaps this is in news because today this was the only decent news in Indian sports.
This is pretty decent except may be two wicket more than they should have lost .all the same if they can get another 100 odd runs tomorrow with the way wicket is playing -India will be in trouble. The new player ROOT ,seems to be having very strong roots , is pretty good and is likely to turn in for England for a long time.

England's main objective seems to bat long enough so that the pitch deteriorates when India go in to bat. Cook & Co, don't seem interested in scoring quickly. Rather they want 230 and bat until the second session tomorrow by which time, the pitch will start turning more and the ball keeping low especially to the fast bowlers, bring LBW into play.

U r bang on target jaya.This is what England has planned & also achieved.India allowed them once again to get out of jail due to defensive approach of Dhoni & poor team selection with only one seamer to bowl on a low wicket
