A century from local hero Ravichandran Ashwin heaps misery on England in the second Test against India in Chennai.
“Jonathan Agnew, go lie down and please never get back up”? Maybe you’re not great with words but that doesn’t read very well in terms of its tone
He might have talked some rubbish today but to say that about a broadcaster of Aggers' quality is outrageous. Disagree with his opinion all you like but that comment is very poor.
Totally agree. Umpires are only human argument will come out with the decision of Root
The moaning English fans have been proved to be pathetic whingers.
Ashwin scores almost entire England's total on a 3rd day track on the SAME wicket, not the one to the Left or Right.
What's proven is that England can't bat against spin, their fans are pathetic moaners, their pundits make poor excuses of incredulous proportions.
This is a great test track, add India's 2 innings scores. Removed

Calm down Camford ... enjoy the win when you get it. What’s the point at having a go at England fans ... this isn’t a football forum, and no need to try to wind people up. India 100% controlled this game, pretty much as England did in the 1st. Let’s hope for a more evenly balanced battle in the 3rd.
England can't bat against Spin despite coming into this off 6 consecutive wins in Asia, back to back whitewashes of Sri Lanka, and being 1-0 up in the series.
India have outplayed England, but claiming England can't play spin is nonsense.

Can’t pay spin - 6 consecutive wins in Asia. Do some research. If anyone is whinging it’s you
You didn't play the game, & don't watch much? Your "great Test track" is absurd, ANY Test wicket where spinners are on after just a few overs in the FIRST innings, that's beyond suspicious! The poorly repaired footmarks are also a clue, (the one where the ball that bowled Virat came from). Yes, India bat against spin, & bowl it, rather better, as we'd expect, but deserve censure re the pitch.
India managed to score two centuries in this match on a pitch that was so poor. How did that happen
India's score became irrelevant yesterday. All England needed to do was keep India at the crease for an hour or so until the end of play on day 3, at which point India would declare, leaving England the not inconsiderable challenge of batting through the final 2 days.
But England are so thick, they couldn't even keep Ashwin IN.
Ashwin was HAPPY to get out and put England in for the last half hour!

You're precisely the reason that people do not like your side. You were not gloating after the first test, so why don't you 'bore-off' and go back to your crappy T-20 dross?
no one cares what the scotch think sunshine
IPL bribing the england team to some degree ???....apart from root..the rest of the team look like they could not care less...terrible body language (and face!) from england. stokes especially a massive let down...show some passion and fight even when you up against it !!!!!!

I think that is actually in Jonny Bairstow's job description, not Joe's?
Cameron Bancroft lol
Cameron Bancroft lol
I hope he gets banned for a test match and fined 30% of his match fee.
I'd much prefer to see a daddy hundred from Joe.
Loved the comment about root nutting kholi,a joke I know but my comment about Ali being poor was banned but this wasn't ???? BBC a joke

I'd imagine that moderation is shift work, and we'll, let's just say that some shifts are better than others

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say you're genuine.
Though I thought if you were over 18 you had to give a UK postcode to post here, so assume you are UK based?
Anyway, even as England fan, my parents were Irish. So "The Raj" is nothing to do with me. Actually the Indian flag colours are taken straight from the Irish flag!

Previously, India would get the fag end of the season n 2 lousy tests. Now, England chase India like a dirty old uncle chasing a young beauty, begging for a game.
Stop touring India if you can't handle it. India doesnt need test cricket
The amount of bullying and racketeering the ECB had excercised over cricket, India are nowhere near that type of power abuse
Poms, stop your moaning Removed

I'm glad India put up a decent score in their second innings, significantly better than England's first innings. That means England can't really blame the state of the wicket, much as I would like to. England simply not good enough in these conditions.
On a serious note, great day for India, who thought we’d get a 4th day (I did), a number 8 scoring a test century on a supposedly unplayable pitch and Rory Burns not getting a duck!
Jonathan Agnew, go lie down and please never get back up! Removed
