Just enough time to be 44-4
Duckett gone for a duck, caught by Gill in the slipsā¦
Eng 13-1 trail by 574
And bang goes Pope first ballā¦
Akash 2 from 2
England 13-2
Sigh.

Turning over to watch Jack Draper is just as depressing.

And thatās why I donāt gambleā¦

Stokes c Pant b Siraj 0 (Eng 84-5)
Oh dear!
You appear to have missed Root getting out, strangled down legside off a shit delivery, the ball before.
Smith is playing well but ridiculously at times.
Heās trying to batter everything as if we are in a dominant position.
Heāll fuck up soon.
Or score the fastest ton in England history.

150 for Brook
Brook b Deep 158 (Eng 387-6)
Good wicket for Mark Butcher just before tea that.
Brook is the highest batting average ever of an English batsman
Will join the double 300 vlub etc.
Brook gets cramps and tweaks and new ball moved a bit
But follow on avoided. Most unlikely avoidance since Jon Snow & Perer Lever at Old Trafford back in the days of Peter West commentary iirc
Nasser.
England 192 behind.
Stuart.
Assuming they leave India 130 ahead, what do India do?
Woakes OUT.
