England are in total control of this test match, if they can bowl India out for around 230 and take a 100 run lead into the second innings then I think they will go onto winning the test match. India really need to fight hard here with their lower order making at least 100+ runs and get as close to England's total as possible. If they can then its any ones test match to win but right now England are in control.
Well its lunch on day 2 of the 5th and last test match between india and england and india are still not able to get them all out till now...again the lower order of england and butler are frustating them and this match is getting out of India's hand.
England are in commanding position as they have not lost a wicket today and playing well and already score has reached 310 runs on board. This is a good start to the team and their is a high chance they can win this test match as well.

Probably in this test series this is the slowest start any team would have got that is just 198/7 in their 90 overs which means almost an average of 2 runs per over. Either England failed to make runs or their would be some excellent bowling by the team. But it is also a final test of Cook who made 71 runs and fans would be happy to see that.
India are in a very strong position in the fifth test match against England. England have been reduced to 198/7, in spite of a 60 run opening stand. But India must remember that they lost 2 tests from such strong positions, due to England's tail wagging. They must ensure that England do not score more than 20-30 runs tomorrow.
England won the toss and elected to bat the first means on this pitch also may be a difficult bat in last innings. So India has to take a good lead in the first innings to avoid chasing the big total in the last innings. If India wins this match at least they will gain the confidence back otherwise they will go to the next series with a very low confidence level. With the new ball, I feel they can pick up the last three wickets quickly.

In this series Bowlers done very impressive job for India in every inning they stick Enlighten battling line up and not give them enough space for playing freely but every time main battling line collapse and they fail to produce good result even lost this series now in final test once again Ishant Bumrah and Jadeja all was on fire and bring them down now lets see what is response from battling line here as they need to give some good and positive result before departure from here.

The 5th and final test match will start later today and from all reports it will be Alastair Cook's final Test before the 33 year old former captain retires from international cricket. Its a shame that he lost his form over the past couple of years as he was a great run scorer for England, I believe he now holds the record for most runs score for England in test matches. It will be an interesting 5th test as England would want to win to send their former captain out on a high while India will be looking to bounce back after a hard loss.
The last match of a very interesting series is ending, both the teams gave it all, but in the end team England came out on the top in almost all departments. Alastair cook made his debut against team India, and it's sheer coincidence he's retiring against them, he's truly humble and one of the best captain I have ever seen. I'm expecting team India to make wholesale changes to thier team, with a series of Australia looming ahead, this is an excellent chance to experiment. I would yet mark team England as favourites and Alastair to score big, what do you'll think.
Even I want Cook to retire having a good score in the last test match. Cook is quite humble I believe and it's a beautiful time he is retiring, won the series, the team is in good form, everything is positive. And about India, I agree they need to change their setting completely, or like in this series, the result can be the same against Australia. Watching this test series, England at the moment is the best team I felt.
Alistar Cook got out at 71 and as soon as he got out their fallen more two wickets and England are now 134/4, still cook got 2nd inning batting to score 100 runs and hope to win the match.

Another win for Hong Kong. They defeated UAE by two wickets and have qualified for the Asia cup after 10 years! 
They've definitely improved overall.

I don't really pay much attention to these matches with low ranked teams but its always nice to see teams that haven't qualified for something in a very long time make it through. The UAE is a decent cricket so for Hong Kong to beat them and make it through to the Asia cup is a great achievement.

This was a great test match as there were a lot of ups and downs through out and it was tough to pick the winner. England were just the better team at certain stages of this test match. For me it was Moeen Ali who was the game changer through this test match taking 9 wickets in the match and was the one to get the 2 danger men in Kohli and Rahane in India's second innings. After these to feel India feel apart and it was game over. Congrats to England on winning the series.
As expected, England managed to win this test match. The Indian bowlers have performed well this series, but were let down by the Indian batsmen. It was never going to be easy chasing a moderate total in the fourth innings.The minute India lost early wickets, it all went downhill.
The pitch conditions supported the pace bowlers and that is the reason why they performed so well. But the Indian batsmen (with the exception of Kohli) needs to perform in such conditions.
The current Indian team batting line up is not suitable for test matches. They are good to come, hit and go back take rest as soon as possible. But in test cricket on talented crickets can play long hours and build a good partnership. Some people say the pitch was bad for batting on last day but they batted worst than expected. They also need to bring a good batting couch like Dravid to improve test batting line up. Do you guys think this current Indian team can qualify to quarterfinals round in next world cup?
Yes you are right some batsmen are not fit for test cricket and some good batsman are waiting to get chance example Karun Nair he is excellent batsman but Indian team is giving chance to Pant, Rahul, Pandya these players are fit for only limited overs not for test cricket.
And yes last day batting is not easy and 4th innings if the target is more than 230+ runs it will become tough for the batting team. But I think India had a chance to win this test match they missed it bad luck.

Snip
We cannot blame Pitch for this Indian lost because Moeen Ali take 9 wickets and Ashwin also done good job all blame to Indian Battling line up as they completely fail to produce any good performance now time for Indian board to think about this before Australian tour because they are going to face same conditions if they want to win then surely have some good practice in seam wickets with some good and attacking battling line up not with these dead wickets battling line upI'll agree with you contrary to fears team India would be facing pitch assisting seam bowlers, it didn't quite happen that way, these pitches were decent pitches. I feel entire blame lies on their famed batting line up, which meekly surrendered the match, they have one or two brilliant individuals, but as a team they're weak. I hope for the upcoming tour down under, team management decided to make several changes, if they wish to win there.
