Harmer's definitely getting some turn now. Imperative that we get a first innnings lead from here.

H 184 - 4 Tea. I wanted to say how well Varma was playing, knowing that the moment I said it, he would pop up a dolly! Harmer v Varma has been an entertaining watch...

As you would expect being Indian, Varma looks very assured playing spin bowling. Very useful when playing Essex!
I think it’s a way of keeping the proper batters focussed! Josh Davey and Lewis Gregory opened a few games ago!When did Josh Davey become such a good opening batter?
Very solid day. Not said that too often this season.
Hopefully we can get up to 400 tomorrow.

Pretty much a perfect day. Now to bat well into tomorrow and instead of Harmer bowling on day 4 it will be Dawson.
Anyone backing England to win the first test against India?
Bumrah and Siraj have sent a few testing deliveries down, in overcast conditions and they are already complaining about the ball in the 14th over.

That's a shame for Presty but that was a confidence building innings. 150 lead would be very useful.
This is the sort of situation you want Fuller and Abbott batting together. Got a nice lead so no pressure on them to stay in for a good period of time, just have a swing. If it comes off great, if it doesn't never mind.
