Preface
Hello insomniacs and Dirty stay, with people coming from many different time zones. Thank you for logging in. In Visakhapatnam, England are about to begin the drudgery of defeating India for the second time while counting yesterday afternoon’s true believers’ lives like the King of York’s kipper with a charming smile.
With Rohit and young double centurion Yashasvi Jaiswal hitting a delightful old hit in the evening session, England extended their lead by 28 runs to 143 at the end of the innings.Ali Martin was also there and he didn’t sound absolutely confident in England’s chances, but judge for yourself on his excellent match report
But this is an England team that relishes taking bad chances, so sit back from the comfort of your sofa, a bench in Visakhapatnam, or wherever you find yourself, turn on the TV, tune in and never quit. It could be a cookie.
