Yet another display of careless batting from the Indian batsmen. They are making England look formidable. Dhoni stood up as a man amongst boys. Especially when you consider that the pitch was not doing anything special. It looks like a three day test match.

Well India's 148 is just not enough! The pitch may not have been good, but the way cook and robson are batting right now, it looks good. Just the two of them and they are already reaching halfway. I doubt the Indian bowlers will be able to stop them now. Looks like another win for England.

Dafuq is this? I knew that India wouldn't do so well - but this is just pathetic display again by Indians. If it wasn't for Dhoni's attacking 80, Afghanistan would've put up a better fight here. And to rub salt in the wound, they're 62/0 - showing them how it's done.

Bowling was quality, but nothing can justify this level of shitty batting.

Good question. India don't have much in the way of wicket takers. Though, to be fair, neither Jordan or Woakes have shown much in the series prior to this Test and I wouldn't classify either of them as frontline wicket takers. Also, Moeen Ali was used as nothing more than a part time spinner four Tests ago.

Great morning session for England. They scored 86 runs and loss just the wicket of Robson. At lunch, England are 148/1, level with India's first innings total.

India have been a disaster in all facets of the game - batting, bowling and fielding. Just a shocking performance.

Ballance with another 50. What a start to his Test career. 3 50's and 3 100's in his first 13 innings.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."		(13.09.2025, 10:58)(10:58)0

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
