Jimmy Anderson bowling in the #thehundred at #Headingly ππ
This one hurts badβbut it did expose every vulnerability within the Indian team. Let's hope the BCCI/selectors finally do something about it!! Congratulations England! #INDvENG #Headingly #FirstTest
Who was moaning about putting India in on day one? Me? Ah, yes, it was! But what do I know?
Great win against a proper side. England proved themselves over the magnificent five days. What an inspiring example of the beauty of test cricket.

I don't mean this unkindly, but #Headingly does look like a toilet seat from above.

Grim stuff at #Headingly!! India fell short by 100 runs in each innings & their bowlers are nowhere near good enough. That said, it's been an exciting testβthough I'm devastated England will win it!!! #INDvENG #Day5
Very poor behaviour. The Indian team really need an attitude adjustment. Work on your skill & stop throwing tantrums. #INDvENG #Headingly #Day5
It's abundantly clear that India's top order can batβthe trouble is getting them all to make runs in the same innings!! #INDvENG #Headingly
After 3 dropped catches & a cancelled catch off his own no ball, Bumrah gets his fifer. 5-83. England all out but India's lead now only 6. A beautifully poised test match! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Finally a wicket for Bumrah. The dangerous & freely scoring Woakes bowled out. England now 460-9 & trail India by 11. That figure of 550 haunts me!! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Stuart Broad meanwhile has been absolutely eviscerating the Indian bowling performance. Hilarious to listen toβthe gaps in the Indian team started to appear during the Australia tour over the summer & are absolutely gaping wide now. But that's the nature of renewal. #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Mark Butcher explaining why bowlers come to appreciate the old ball in England. The new ball is zinging around like it has a living spirit trapped inside it! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Would really love to hear the male commentators ask Mel Jones about her playing days & experience. I'm sure she has some great stories & I would like to hear them! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Harry Brook, after a few lives, is finally caught on 99. Relief for Indiaβespecially Prasit who's had a better day bowlingβbut hard luck for Harry Brookβespecially on his home ground. #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
I don't especially like him but I'm thinking Pant probably should have been captain. He's undisciplined & immature but has excellent game strategyβreminds me of Shane Warne with his street smarts. #INDvENG #Headingly
Highest number of catches dropped by an Indian side in FIVE YEARSβjust in this game! And I don't know what madness suddenly descended but the Indian bowlers can't control the new ball! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
550 runs would have come in very handy right about now! Throwing away your wicket might seem edgy but it's just bloody stupid! Over from hell for India! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Jaiswal WTF?? TWO DROPPED catches from Bumrah. This is unacceptable. I mean really, what are you doing??? #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Ironically Siraj was bowling better with the old ball than he is with the new ballβdespite his mews of discontent! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
*Also this team hasn't played together for agesβit needs time to gell. Be calm BCCI menβyou will get there! #testcricket #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Good to see the Indian bowlers forced to dig deep with the old ballβthat's where innovation comes from. The pitch is not deadβthe bowlers just have to find their rhythm & they're getting there. Paul Reifel of all people knows how they feel & that they need to persist! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day3
Another good over from Siraj. He's been out of sorts for such a long timeβsince the ODI World Cup. India really needs him in form & confidentβthey keep backing him. Can he do it?#INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
That last delivery from Siraj was quite goodβcan he bowl himself back into form? #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
Wow Jadeja. Another out of form playerβwhy is he here? Is Bumrah supposed to carry the ENTIRE team?? Time for a total overhaul of the Indian cricket teamβthe country is filled with excellent cricketersβwhat are the selectors doing? #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
Why did they bring Siraj instead of Shami? Siraj needs to a good long restβhe has been out of form for three tours now. #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
That lbw reviewβwhat a load of BS! That was PLUMBβpractically a grubber. Come on! Ball has to start straighter...or something. #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
Oh my gawd. Was that a cricket ball or an Excel missile?? Bumrah blasts through Crawley's defences. The shock on Crawley's face pretty much spoke for all of us!! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
Delightful discussion between Athers, Nasser & Mark Wood (who I LOVE) on the mechanics of fast bowling (& specifically Bumrah). We love to watch batting but bowling is one of the great mysteriesβthe divine art. Lovely way to spend the lunch break! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
Stupid stupid stupid!! No doubt about it, Gambhir has a job on his hands with this Indian team. Apart from Pant & Gill, everyone else has batted like idiots. Why would Shardul swing at a wide ball last delivery before lunch? Have they plugged their brains in today?? #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
Nerves get the better of Nair. Devastating! Out for 0 after several overs of tentative pushing. Not a good test for the two newbiesβespecially with the captain & vice captain in amongst the runs! #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
I wonder if India is thinking of a declaration soonβthunderstorms predicted & India will want to get a bowl in. 441-4 a& Pant is smashing them (trying to smash them) all over the park. #INDvENG #Headingly #Day2
