England's cricketers frustrated by the weather

Saturday, August 09 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Heavy rain and a huge puddle on the boundary at Old Trafford in Manchester, prevented play in the fourth Test for over three hours on Friday frustrating England's attempts to build a substantial lead over India. After resuming on 113-3 overnight, England reached 237-6 at stumps to lead India's first innings 152 by 85 runs.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): Ian Bell, England

    "He (Aaron) bowled very well. Obviously he has got a bit of pace which is obviously always very good. Yeah, he bowled nicely, complemented (Bhuvneshwar) Kumar. So yeah, I thought there was an attack there - I thought there was a nice balanced attack (for India) this game."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Varun Aaron, India

    "I mean - what should I say? There is nothing going through my head about the dismissals. It is just that I am happy I got wickets when we needed them. Still a long way to go in the match."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Ian Bell, England
    (Does Ali have a weakness to the short ball?)

    "I don't know. Obviously again, Yadav, not Yadav, Aaron was bowling at good pace. He bowled him (Ali) a good bouncer followed by a really good delivery. I think that delivery actually was underrated. It swung late and hit the top of off stump. He (Ali) knows that he has got areas to work on - same as his bowling but for me, he is as talented a young cricketer as we have got. And hopefully he keeps working as hard as he can on both parts of his game and takes us forward."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Varun Aaron, India
    (Can you tell us about the dismissal of Ali - someone described the ball as the 'ball of the series')

    "I don't know. I just bowled a bouncer, then I bowled an inswinger. I can't say anything. There is not much
