Encouraging to see Rohit Sharma using a half heartwood bat, one which GM would grade as 808 I guess.

Pujara can go at 1 per 100 balls if he likes.. they aint winning so just eat up time. runs are irrelevant now

I wouldn't discount team India just yet, they have a solid batting line up. They would want to bat out days 3 & 4 to hold on to the series lead. Team England and bowlers capitalized on a great window of opportunity with the pitch but now this is a batting pitch. 

As of now, this match hangs in balance. A good showing with the bat will tilt the match in favor of team India.

That Rohit Sharma dismissal is exactly what is all wrong with the DRS system! Wasnt there a rule update which said that more than 50% of the ball has to hit for a decision to be upheld?

The rule is that more than 50% needed to overturn. To uphold, even hint of touch is enough.

was the same with Hameed's dismissal in the second innings at Lords - both just didn't look right but just clipping seems to be enough in the laws of DRS  :(

I don’t understand Root’s tactics. Anderson seemed off or hurt himself. Yet Root keeps bowling him into the ground.
Robinson and Overton need to work on their fitness seemed down on pace today.

#TapeGate

Did anyone else think Pants glove/finger strapping, contravene the rules?




Called it, back when they played India away in March.

That was some innings from Pujara. Obviously thought f*ck it i'm on my last legs and played accordingly. Looked a different player.

Real quality thou from the Indian batsmen.

We should win, but given England’s recent history of letting sides off the hook, I wouldn’t be surprised to see India enter day five with a lead of 200. Big morning session. We need to get rid of these two, and also get rid of Pant ASAP too.
