In short – India won the toss and chose to bat first on a featherbed. They finished the day on 336-6 with 22 year old opener Yashasvi Jaiswal carrying his bat for 179*. And yet – England would have probably been the happier side after picking up six wickets and giving themselves the chance of bowling India out for a first innings score of around 400 or so. Did I mention it is flat?

99th over: India 352-6 (Jaiswal 183, Ashwin 15) talented Mr. Anderson The ball wobbled off the wicket in both directions. He brings one back to Jaiswal and England stand up for LBW. Maybe it was an outside foot pitch? I don’t know anything. The ball wasn’t out because it just went over the top of Vail, but he pitched it over the line. Despite this, England lost the review. Bye-bye from over with just a lone leg.
98th place: India 351-6 (Jaiswal 183, Ashwin 15) shot. Ashwin leans on a full ball from Bashir, plays in-to-out and slips through the covers for four. He is a dangerous batsman and England will want to see his back before he fits properly into the crease.
I can’t help but think @jimmy9 & @Ashwin Ravi99 Now as neighbors. Imagine them arguing over the fence.Very fun #IndvEng pic.twitter.com/0rTYZ8SRIO

By the way, this is a summary and there was nothing.
97th place: India 346-6 (Jaiswal 182, Ashwin 12) Anderson almost cleaned Jaiswal up with a delicious wobble seam ball that beat both the stumps and the outside edge. beard. The splatters of blonde in his hair give him a raffish quality, a bit like Jude Law, who played Dickie Greenleaf in The Talented Mr. Ripley. There are only a few singles to get India excited.
96th over: India 344-6 (Jaiswal 181, Ashwin 11) Bashir continued with the new ball and Ashwin only hit one more with it. Television replays showed Anderson looking furious (even more than usual) at Ashwin, who was standing close to the umpire on the non-striker’s side. One worth noting.
95th over: India 343-6 (Jaiswal 181, Ashwin 10) England got a new ball and James Anderson, with his blonde streaks, put it in his mitt. Now. There was immediate movement from the seam and Anderson did his job, nipping the ball past Jaiswal’s outside edge with his first pass. Two slips are in place and two men are out on the fence for the hook/pull. close! Anderson has the upper hand, but it doesn’t reach the cordon. A promising sign for England.
94th place: India 341-6 (Jaiswal 180, Ashwin 9) Bashir will begin proceedings on the second day. The crowd seems to be large and especially noisy. Since it’s Saturday, there are a lot of school children. They cheered wildly when Jaiswal pulled back the first ball of the day for a single, and went full banana man when Aswin got on the front foot and hit a brilliant four through the covers.
There are about 5 minutes left until the operation begins. Players are also starting to appear. Same goes for my headaches.

Initial email from Michael Meagher:
“British mood music is good too… but WinViz has 90% Indian music.”
Now he’s gone. He’s like Keyser Söze in the OBO mailbag.
I will also slowly move into action. I knew I shouldn’t have stayed until the last drink… Yeah git. Inevitably a bean-based liquid is being brewed, so I need to sort myself out. Contact us via email or social media. We can finish this first session together. please?
Make it 22 years. I’ll take what he has. https://t.co/oLMisKhmEk

Television coverage begins in earnest. Sir Alastair Cook and Steve Finn believe yesterday was England Day and an important day ahead in the context of the series.

The wonderful Tanya Aldred in Walking’s finest. and Rohit traps Shoaib Bashir:
Shoaib Bashir was making his Test debut. Bashir is only 20 years old and he has played 6 first-class matches and has only 10 first-class wickets. His fingers, as tall as the office buildings sprouting up in the streets of his hometown of Woking, curl over and around a cricket ball, shrinking to the proportions of a dried cranberry. Having loosened his shirt in Buzzball style after England lost the toss on a flat wicket, he reacted surprisingly calmly when Stokes bowled him in the 12th over.
All in easy action, he rattled through his first accurate overs, conceding only one run, and picked up his first Test wicket after 2.3 overs. Just then, Rohit Sharma angled his bat and the ball slipped through his legs and fell into the hands of Olly Pope, with Bashir staring at its arc. forever. Bashir threw up his long arms in jubilation before being suffocated by his beloved new teammates.

Hello and welcome to the second day of India vs England OBO in Visakhapatnam.it is very Early in the morning, in the molasses of south London. Let’s take stock of where the game has been since day one and slowly ease into what we expect to be another good/important/interesting/night.
So India won the toss and elected to bat first on the featherbed. The team finished the day at 336-6 with 22-year-old opener Yashasvi Jaiswal batting 179*. Still, England, who took six wickets and gave themselves a chance to bowl India out with a first innings score of around 400 or so, were probably the happier side.Did I say yes? flat?
