Without dominating even a session in the test till day 4, India is all set to face a defeat at Southampton. After England set India, a target of 445, India fell apart on the final session lossing 4 wickets and 333 runs behind win. Unless a miracle led by the mumbaikars, Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane, it all looks tough for India.
Here are the twitter reactions of the day.
England can do anything.
Those saying England should bat like this is a T20 are missing the point. England do bat like this in a T20.. .#engvind #thebigtest

Shikhar is Shekhar to Ganguly.
Someone needs to get Ganguly to pronounce Dhawan as “Shikhar” before his career gets over.

Finally Vijay got out before Dhawan did.
Kind of a game where Vijay gets out early and Dhawan will hang on to retain his place for the next 2 Tests. #EngvInd

It means Ali is third highest wicket taker.
Only James Anderson and Bhuvi Kumar have more wickets than Moeen in this series.

Gambhir’s hopes getting destroyed.
This is a make or break inning for Dhawan. Every run Dhawan makes, breaks Gambhir’s heart even more. #EngVInd

Time for Change of Bands from Moeen Ali.
Moeen Ali’s next wrist band –> “Help Kohli, Pujara…Save India’s Middle Order” #EngvInd

Moeen Ali should wear bracelet “Save Kohli and Anushka’s relationship”. #EngvInd
