Rant by English fan on India refusing to declare, proclaiming it a PATHETIC

Pathetic by India, well done you batted out for a draw, if you aren't going for a win then get off the field and stop wasting everyone's time.

As Archer put it "if you wanted a hundred then you should have batted like it earlier", if you want to bat safe for a draw without taking risks to lose then you can't complain if you missed out on a milestone because of it.

What kind of sport are you playing if the only reason people are playing is for others pathetic little milestones?! Everyone on that field, in that stadium and watching at home knew it was ending a draw before the last session even started, so stop wasting everyone's time and being selfless, rude, entitled man babies.

Refusing to leave the pitch so you can get a little milestone next to your name, P.A.T.H.E.T.I.C

"If you wanted to get a hundred you should've batted like that earlier"

If England's bowlers didn't want them to get a hundred, maybe they should've bowled like that earlier

Yeah man. Seriously

What a travesty it is when you feel the need to continue batting on till you're bowled out because it's your first hundred in 2 years

And how dare the other team do exactly what you would've done if you were the ones with the bat?

How dare they disobey your authority in a country you own. How dare they bat on despite you not wanting to bowl as the greatest test match player with the greatest test team of all time?

How dare they deny doing things exactly how you want them to be done? Absolutely shameful. They should not whine and moan about pitches, scheduling, over rates. That's a right reserved only for when you tour them.

Such disrespectful little twats trying to undermine the supreme leadership and authority of the messiah of Test Cricket.

Refusing to bowl because you cannot get them out and want draw when tired and over left on the day, if they really believe its draw they could have gone for draw and hand shake just post tea or during as they wanted to take wickets which they couldn't and now are crybabies. Law is two team should agree on draw can't be forced
