is it time to drop the likes of VIJAY, DHAWAN, PUJARA and KARTIK forever from tests?

KOHLI had a terrible time in england last time around. i dont think his career average in england will ever rise above 45 after that series. even if he scores 600 runs in this series with a couple of not outs, that series will be blemish in his career. i dont think the likes of tendulkar ever had that bad a 4 or 5 test series.

KOHLI dropped again! this could be over very soon. aj's prediction of around 200 could come true.

What do you reckon India can chase on this in the 4th innings?
I think India can't chase anything more than 150 but I think England will set them 275+100 = 375.
India will miss Bhuvi and Boomrah on this. Bowlers who could move the ball may have been pretty handy.

India will miss Bhuvi and Boomrah on this. Bowlers who could move the ball may have been pretty handy. this is just like the first test against south africa a few months ago. SOUTH AFRICA score 280 odd and their bowlers kill indian batsmen. indian bowlers kill their batsmen in the second innings. but then south african bowlers mow india down while chasing a paltry 200 odd. i dont think this english attack is as agood as that south african one. but our batsmen are still crap.

I think Ashwin won't last long but I do agree with many of your picks.
England are brave enough to give India runs in third man region.

WTF....England dropped guard in last session. The match should have been over. But that said all England would need is about 175 runs to defend in the 4th innings.
Kohli, as much as I hate him, played like a true class batsman.

92 runs for the final two wickets. Completely unacceptable. And from reading this thread, sounds like the fielding has been poor.
Then the idea of Cook being dismissed for 0 in the 2nd innings entered my head just before I checked the score...

I think Cook should just retire. He's shot.

I'm convinced Root needs to be removed from the captaincy, but there's no other candidates that I'm aware of.

ROOT and JENNINGS gone early. will the fast bowlers step up now? ASHWIN cant do this by himself.
