easy this

India have properly fucked this tour up. They should be in the bar tonight with a 3-0 lead.

Not done yet Dave !

Teams have been pretty even but India seem to have a bit more of the upper hand. Fair play to us for hanging in there

Now I've to drive from a wheat field in Hungary to one in Serbia before the lunch break finishes!! Hopefully border is open going that way.
Does give me a chance to recharge the phone.

Lovely time to get the break through.
Give Archer a rest over lunch, then unleash him on the tail enders.

Brilliant bowling display all round. Actually thought the pitch didn’t look as lively but everyone put it in the right areas. Chuffed for woakes and Carse was very good even though he didn’t get a wicket

Very. Bumrah looking solid and balls getting old. Not sure if there’s been much swing/reverse swing in the test but could do with some !

Fair play from Bashir there, thrown straight back in the mix and decent

England will win this now

I think Bumrah will be well advised to keep out of Jadeja’s way when the innings ends

Although I'm still keeping the faith for an England victory, I reckon WinViz is optimistic in giving us a 92% chance. I'd say 75-80 %.

I think it will be over before we get the opportunity to take the new ball.

Wow. What a test match. This team’s got some fight, dragged ourselves out the shit again. Bowled brilliantly today, gave away very little

Fair play to India. Unbelievable effort.

Thank god for that. Sat on a combine with an old Serbian driver who has no idea why i've made him turn the GPS off on the combine as it is messing with the wifi for some reason.
Felt it was going to take something unusual to take that last wicket with the old ball

Never in doubt!

Got a longer break to the next test, not till next Wednesday. No doubt that will have them thinking they can play Archer back to back.

Really hope they don't overwork him.

Stokes managed Archer well….ran himself into the ground in the process though. He’s a proper leader

So it took around 5 hours play, 57 overs to score 112 runs. Sounds like a really boring day's Test cricket

Reminded me of Shane Warne treading on his stumps. Luck was on our side today!

It may sound like it but it absolutely wasn't. It was a tense, nailbiting thriller.

It was proper test cricket. The best match I can recall since Edgbaston in 2005 against the Aussies.
