Right now it's anybodys game with India getting out for 201. If England gets away and post a lead of around 400 with time, India's going to be in trouble.

I am also writing the answer, after India won the match. Honestly, I thought that due to earlier damage, where runs were hard to come by, India might be short by 25-30 runs. England's openers are in very good form and our bowlers were in terrible form. With Kumar doing good damage upfront, it was a great win in the end. A big morale booster and this can certainly change the look of whole series. India just needs to plug couple more loopholes. One of the openers has to go and maybe take out Ishant Sharma also. Either bring back Zaheer Khan or Sreesanth, if they are fit to play and get back Sehwag or promote Pujara to open the innings. He can do a good staying job, like Cook, as he can take care of one end for whole 50 overs, if he scores with an above 60% strike rate. All the best to team India, hopefully they can take charge of situation from here onwards..

I think a draw if the weather comes into play, which it no doubt will. If it a full five days india may win. England good strike bowlers are all injured AGAIN. We have Anderson, Broad and Tremlett , they may have some luck who knows but its a fairly strong Indian batting line up.

England cannot loose this match from this stage of 269 runs for the loss of 4 wickets. Hence in all probability the match will end in a draw unless Indian batting collapses.

With rain forecast from second day it could be a draw.
If the match goes to full length it could be 60:40 in favour of India,I only hope rather than believe.

whats the weather forecast?
probably a draw as both teams are fairly even and the weather is always a problem.
India dont win too many matches away from home, but the poms have had a busy schedule this year and maybe fatigued..........

India has a chance to win as England do not have good players except the great spiner

India, since England r missing the most crucial players in the bowling department.Sachin seems to be in great form and maybe it could be his first century at Lords

even without weather i think it'll be a draw. Two strong batting sides and two weaker bowling sides. It'll be a high scoring game. Add in the weather and I'll be really surprised to see anything but a draw here
