Cricket is a religion in India a country of how many billion people and this is an evenly poised test v the old enemy England.

So why is is it so empty in the stadium. ???

It’s not, it’s quite full?

These grounds are rarely completely full, plenty of Indians are still very poor and the ground is big.

I imagine a few will head for the exits now.

.... just got this from an Indian colleague at the game. A lakh is 100,000. These are big grounds.

Thats right up there with some of the greatest ever England performances.
Belief got them through.
Everyone laughed at the end of day one when Ducket said 'we're in a great position'

How will India respond? Will they go down the bazball route?

 

[EuropaParmo]

As amazing a test victory you'll ever see.

Teams don't win in India. Those that do don't win from the position we were in

 

[atypical_boro]

If we win 1 more test that’s better than anyone has done in India since us in 2013.

 

[Centralscrutinizer]

An amazing win. Historical.
Let me have my regular mini rant and say it should've been on free to air TV so that the country can watch it's representative team.
