They needed 324 runs going into the last day.
To all the world it looked like a draw. But they played for the win. Amazing stuff.

I always celebrate a victory against The Sandpaper Boys, but this one was particularly pleasing, even more so after some pretty disgraceful scenes at the third test.

There’s loads of things like this on FB.
I think Paine has cooked his goose. Not a good captain, and not the best gloveman, either.

The Aussies have reverted back to type.
They had a couple of years after sandpapergate of pretending to be nice but they can’t help themselves, it’s in their DNA.

Definitely agree with that. The crocodile tears were painfully transparent and it didn't take long for the mask to slip.
I know every team has their problems and issues, but I can think of more unpleasant incidents over the years involving them than any other.

Great result from india
What did Tim Paine say "Can't wait to get you at the Gabba".
Love to see the loud mouthed cheating aussies get beat.

I see our openers have piled on the runs again.

So 23 runs in total from our openers in this test?
Deja vu? What a shambles from Cribley or Sawlies, i get confused as they are equally cr*p.
They both look really uncomfortable compared to lower order. Good test though

6 innings between them and 28 scored in total, it really is piss poor.

Send a couple of openers who can't play spin to the sub-continent? Madness.

England HAVE TO sort out the problem with both openers in time for the Ashes tour this coming winter.
There doesn’t appear to be a shoe-in pair and previous ’experiments’ failed due to lack of confidence, technique, application and/or ability.
Maybe Alistair Cook could be lulled out of retirement and paired with Jonny Bairstow!
Hopefully a successful opening pair will be unearthed this summer.

Embuldinaya has got all six wickets against them, and probably eight monday/tues? I wish Geoff Boycott was commentating

It would be great to hear what Boycott would have to say.
