Meanwhile....Yorks have changed clothes but not ability.....Dillon Pennington has made a 50 from #10 and Notts are well in control
Pant showing Brook how to get from 99 to 100, patience, patience and more patience then take an easy single.
India bowled out for 364, 370 ahead. They lost their last 6 wickets for 31! As long as Eng survive today they've got a good chance. Could be a fantastic last day
Wonder how they'll play it. Obviously need to get a shift on, so either measured one day mode or full Bazball. Over 50 with no losses by close of day is a platform. Hopefully the weather won't intervene.
No losses is good enough for me, especially Crawley as he can be a feast or famine batter, he owes us an innings now.
just looked and was surprised to see the innings wrapped up that quickly. the indian first innings was similar - they lost 7 for 41 in that one.perhaps that bodes well for the rest of the series. england can easily score 350 more in a day, as long as they hang onto their wickets.
this is the first time india have scored five centuries in a test. let's see... india scored 835 runs in all. the five centuries accounted for 637 of those runs. everything else came to 198. 49 of those, about a quarter, were extras. that leaves 149 for the other17 innings 149/17 is about 8 and three-quarters. just need to stop the hundreds then.
One thing is for certain, this won't be a draw, England will go for it and either get it or get out trying, there is no fence sitting for this team
