Really good from Baker this.

I've seen his name in the 2nd XI games quite a bit, he's done OK

Superb from Baker today. He had figures of 0-54 from 9 overs before play started today. Finishes with 5-72 from 20.1 overs.

It's unlikely that we could force a win from here, but we definitely shouldn't be losing.

Assuming that Durham lose, and Yorks beat Sussex, a draw enables us to move above Sussex, remain above Yorks, and pull further clear of Durham.

Varma confirmed for the 50 over comp

According to the commentary I heard on the live stream, it's only for the first 3 games but we'll see. I wonder if they'll give Ben Mayes a go as well, he's scoring some good runs at the moment

A good day for Hampshire, need to pick up the rate tomorrow and try our best to leave enough time to take 10 wickets. Worcs will have to go for it, a draw's no good for them really. Fuller to come in next, Prest can hit out a bit as well.

Gutted for Woakes. Looks like a dislocated shoulder.

Yep .
Real shame for him .
He comes across as a really decent bloke .

So that's India all out, five for Gus Atkinson. Didn't have time to watch yesterday, I wonder how the England openers will cope on what looks like a pitch what has something in it for the bowlers.

Hello Bazball my old friend.
You've come to talk with us again.

“Nice” morning session for England. Not sure I’d been so accommodating as Duckett to Deep.

It very much depends on what Deep was saying to Duckett. If it was a wind up, someone needs to have a word with him. Even if it was friendly, it was still a bit odd.

Crawley out for 64. Scored quickly but I thought he looked shaky throughout.

Yes of course but as you say, very odd. And since, now Krishna / Root. Seems to me India are a bit rattled & are deliberately using a bit of wumming.

What happened? I was out for a while, didn't even know we'd lost another wicket.

Sketchy 4 by Root & Krishna obviously made a derogatory comment, which Root didn’t appreciate. Responded & Umpires spoke to Indians. Getting tasty.

I'm a bit old school when it comes to the verbals. Didn't like it when I played and don't like it at this level either.
