It is, but it’s largely chanceless at the moment because the ball is so soft.

I know we want to win but the longer this goes on the more I find myself rooting for the most remarkable result in the history of sport, a tie.

Tense this. I think Stokes may have thrown this away with poor decisions and over bowling himself.

Yep, but never in test or first class has it happened in both innings.

If India win this, the reaction of their fans at Lords would be a sight and sound!

Definitely over bowling when Archer and Woakes are available instead.
