England are 35 runs away from closing out a 3-1 series win over India, thanks to Harry Brook, Joe Root and an Englishman in a Bangladesh ODI top.

More offensive personal milestones by India. Statistically one of the flattest summers on record. This is starting to look familiar for cricket in England. India’s lost 15 tosses in a row. Shubbers looked regal again before being involved in one of the worst runouts in cricket. Punter loves the sound of Shubmans bat on ball. Josh Tongue hits some very interesting areas before taking 2 incredible wickets. English bowling attack fall off needs to be studied.  Join us on Patreon for an extra hour of AskTGC Fridays every week plus access to the entire 250 epsisode back catalogue.   https://www.patreon.com/gradecricketer Six Points Pale is back!
