Bat all day, bat tomorrow until weāre out, take the loss out of the equation and put the pressure on India, the pitch isnāt there now so itāll be a bastard in two days time.
Donāt declare as itād mean weād have to bat again, try and get them to bat and follow on.

Another good session for England. Slowed down a bit now that Stokes has gone, as expected. 200 up for Rooty. Heās in such nick at the moment. What a joy to see.

Two wickets in quick order. Pushing the score on for sure. Butter will do the same once settled in

Sorry but another word for James Vince in the BBL final.
Just out for 95 from 60. Brilliant innings.

Buttler looked very much caught behind there but the umpire is not shifting in the face of prolonged pleas from just about the entire Indian team. I knew their squandering of all those reviews would come back to bite them. That looked a very definite edge.

Didnāt last much longer though. Buttler and Archer gone in consecutive balls. Ishant on a hat-trickā¦
ā¦ but Leach manages to edge it away, off a no-ball.

That was absolutely standard, practice catching. Theyāve not been ideal in the field so far. Not that Iām complaining.

Good late runs from Bess & Leach
Allows Root to get a heavy roller on the pitch again in the morning to try and break it up even more.
