India definitely on top.

Massive opportunity missed it feels in this test. From where India were, the drops and poor use of DRS, we really should have had them all out for under 250/300

[PaulWinch again]

Decent start to the reply, but we need to be ruthless here. We’ve got to get to up and around their score.

[LeeB]

Pretty impressive up till now

Stunning knock from Duckett. Platform is there, really need Root to contribute tomorrow. This is a brilliant series either way, so much ebb and flow.

Take a bow Ben Duckett, brilliant knock so far, also 207 off just 35 overs is incredible.

Would obviously like us to win all the remaining games, but a couple of draws would set up a winner-takes-all final test which would be a great proposition.

No chance of a draw. This England team doesn't even consider a draw as a possibility

Ashwin withdraws from the Test due to a family medical emergency.

[PaulWinch again]

Hope him and his family are ok.

[Villan For Life]

We have folded far too easily today, 207-2 to 319 all out, a deficit of 126 runs.

[PaulWinch again]

That is a pretty shocking effort. Root and Bairstow are really delivering nothing this series.

[PaulWinch again]

Irrespective of styles etc to only get 300 when one player gets 150 is pretty bloody dreadful.

[manic-road]

A bad day with the bat, India with a main bowler out as well.

[PaulWinch again]

Yep feels very like Lords in the Ashes. Our first innings efforts in this series have been pretty weak.
