He's only 20 so you can forgive Bashir a little:
“He said he and fellow spinner Tom Hartley were “really excited” for the day ahead and the chance to beat India.

“That pitch is deteriorating quite a bit now — we saw some pop from a good length and some roll. That’s a good sign for us”, he said.

“We’re two tall spinners and we have tall release points. Stokesy (Ben Stokes) and Baz (Brendon McCullum) picked us for a reason,” he added.

Had a feeling once India got within reach of England's 1st innings score.

England would have a 2nd innings collaspe.

Its happened many times before with Australia in India they fight and scrap your way to a decent total batting first. Have India on the ropes then there lower order claw there way to a total close enough to ours.

Which then leads to a 2nd innings collapse once the pitch gets worse & leaves india chasing a paltry total to win the match.

Another shocker of a day from England but it isn't Lord King Baz or the Great Man Stokes who fronts the media it is a 20 year old in his his second test.

Surprised the talking parrot Ollie Knobinson wasnt called upon to speak to the media his 0/54 off 13 overs had a massive impact on that 1st innings for India.

To be fair to Robinson, his dropped sitter of Jurel on about 50 has had quite an impact on the game.
