As I write a response that they have beaten the bat a few times Robinson gets a wicket
But you are right, there is nobody close to Anderson (Consistently).

Hello, Overton on for a hat trick
Bowling in and around off stump can get Shami out.
Who would have thought it lol

Jimmy could be batting by the end of the day

Would you believe it, bowling at the stumps to tailenders gets you quick wickets
2 hat trick balls in 10 minutes gives me a bad feeling in my stomach. I've had stuff like that in my team quite a few times this summer lol
Crazy eh!
India bowled out for 78. Now the question is can England match it.
The bowlers have already saved the follow on at least.

Bowled India out for double digits, no loss of wickets in our innings, blast past their total and both our openers make half centuries. About as good as it gets for the first day
Only saw the last few overs of Englands innings before the close, but India were losing the plot. Overthrows on the final ball just about summed them up.
Today was a little unexpected

After ignominiously grabbing defeat from the jaws of victory in the last test England had to respond, and today was more than a perfect answer.
Mark Wood added to England's ongoing injury woes before a ball was bowled, but having lost the toss, this second string attack was inspired by their sole remaining iconic master of swing and seam, Jimmy Anderson.
Virat Kohli has shown all series how not to bat in England, but it was if the whole team copied him today - everyone was getting caught behind by Buttler who just kept taking the dolly's provided. Length was important and England's quartet of medium quicks got it consistently on that just short of a drive length, doing just enough and consistently taking the edge.
Ishant Sharma showed the way for India with a hilarious loud of rubbish when they bowled. He was literally all over the place - he's the bowler who keeps on giving for England, setting the tone for a pitiful bowling performance from the visitors.. Although Rohit, Bumrah and Shami were better they didn't consistently get the right lengths that all four of England's seamers had.
Rory Burns once again had an impressive start to his first innings and Hameed looks confident against this misfiring attack too. Both now looking set on 50 odd not out, 40 runs ahead of their entire teams total and ten wickets still in hand. More dominant a position couldn't be envisaged and rarely happens in test cricket for any team, anytime, anywhere against anyone.
