That crept up on me. Looks like it might be another three day game. Root and Bairstow could do with an upturn in form.

No disgrace to lose a T20 series 3-2 in India, for a moment at the start of our innings I thought hang on a minute, but it wasn't to be.


We were ok until the 13th over,and then the wheels came off big time.

Always going to be a tough ask, especially in the middle overs with the field more spread. We gave it a go.

We’re doing our best to throw it away again after a fantastic start.

Usual boring tedious expected batting collapse.

Yawn.

Very disappointing result after such an impressive start.

You wonder how they can score 135 without loss then throw all 10 wickets for another 116.

Just watching a very interesting Test W Indies v Sri Lanka think both sides have a couple of future potential greats would say both seem to be in rebuilding phases

Faaaaaaaark, we're not going to do it again, surely? three wickets in nine balls.

He’d be disappointed at only scoring a 1 and 2 off those 12 balls.

According to BBC Cricket, England have “restricted” India to just 329! Ed Joyce and Ian Bell shaking their heads.

Don't blame them - both openers gone already! - edit, and Stokes dropped off what should have been an easy catch

Got closer than I expected, as well as Curran played I do think he blew it near the end. Kept turning down singles and played too many defensive shots thinking he could win the game on his own ,should have had more faith in Wood

We had a target that was attainable no question about that, with sensible batting from England's top five batsmen we could have got over the line.
Overall India were better but we've thrown that away today and missed a golden opportunity to have won the 50 over format.
That's my opinion anyway.

But he will have played with Wood and seen him bat more than we have. Hell of a game. Curran aside, England's key players didn't stay in long enough to do the necessary damage in the top half.

Can't fault the effort though on a very touch tour at a very strange time. I've enjoyed all of the games with India in each format. Some mixed performances, certainly questions to be asked over rest and rotation of players, but difficult to judge sport at the moment in the circumstances. Every player returning to the UK now faces another 2 weeks of quarantine when they return. That is a long time without seeing family and friends for many of these players and staff.

Never knowingly understood

We lost by 7 and Curran must have turned down at least that many easy singles coz he wanted to retain the strike. I’m not knocking him, it was an excellent innings, (though it was aided by a few dropped catches).

Wood is well capable of clearing the ropes, just thought Curran could have shown a bit more faith in him.

Disappointed to lose all 3 series as at times we were very good, just not consistent enough.

That’s what I thought too.He needed to keep the scoreboard ticking over.I didn’t think we’d get anywhere near their score,but thanks to a few dropped catches,we got close.

Jadeja!


Look out for what is more or a less a tennis shot, on one foot. It still went for six!

It would have been funny if they put five fielders out at deep mid-wicket, maybe in a pyramid.

He was dropped on 0 as well. The bowler was 3-14 off 3 overs up until then!

Yes that was an incredible over. Kohli's face was a picture

J didnt do bad with the ball either, CSK have always been my favourite IPL team, 2020 was a bit painful but this year looks promising, I do think they should consider putting Sam Curran in higher up the order now as ahead of Dhoni
