At Lunch, England are 84/4 - 63 runs from the session in 26 overs, four wickets. Jos Buttler is on 19 and Ben Stokes on 3. England still need 437 runs to win. That session belonging to India.
Jos Buttler putting Shami to the cleaners for three boundaries in the over. First ball is a short one and is pulled away for a four. Second one is straight towards middle stump and is glanced away for a four. Another one is almost a catch. Evades Ajinkya Rahane at covers after neat timing and power on it from Root. Kohli, however, thinks it was catch worthy
How things have turned!
GONE! Many questioned India's fielding in the slips - and rightly so - but no questions now. None whatsoever. Ollie Pope departs for 16, Mohammed Shami strikes. But that wicket belonged to Virat Kohli's brilliance at slips. At third slip, Kohli takes an absolute blinder to send Pope packing. Bowled it full and wide outside off, got Pope to go for the square drive, he couldn't keep it down and the edge goes flying to KL Rahul's right but Kohli dives across to his left and takes it over his head two-handed. England are 62/4
GONE! Big wicket for India. KL Rahul. At second slip. Wicket. No second chances in that region. Dele Alli celebrations follows for KL Rahul. Joe Root departs for 13 runs and Bumrah strikes. Short of length from Bumrah, Root goes for a punch on the back foot but gets a thick outside edge which goes to KL Rahul who holds on. Bumrah rewarded for strong show all morning. England are 62/3
Ollie Pope and Joe Root going by comfortably and carefully. Not trying to do too much and being patient with their shots. Mohammed Shami with a loose delivery, on the pads for Root to just flick it away for a four. Two balls away, it is outside the off stump and Root with a glorious drive towards extra cover. Grimance by Shami says it all
GONE! Now it is the turn of the other trouble England opener to depart. Alastair Cook is dismissed for 17 and Ishant Sharma strikes once again. Two wickets in two overs for Ishant Sharma. 11th time that Ishant Sharma has dismissed Alastair Cook. Back of a length delivery outside off, Cook with a jab defence and KL Rahul is safe pair of hands at second slip. Comfortable height. England are 32/2
GONE! Fifth ball of the day and India have a wicket already. A nervous Keateon Jennings, who else? Jennings walks back for 13 and Ishant strikes early. Pitched on short of length, perfect line outside off stump and straightens a wee bit to get the outside edge which holds comfortably for Rishabh Pant. England are 27/1
Three slips and a gully, and a short cover in place for Keaton Jennings as the two teams walk down. Ishant Sharma to bowl the first over
Pitch Report from Trent Bridge: The pitch has deteriorated a little bit, so there is some grip that has developed which is likely to help seamers and spinners. There is a rough patch on one end, but it's on a shortish length, so there is something for Ashwin to exploit. Bumrah, Shami and Ishant will all come into play but they need to put into some effort and bend their backs because the seam will be slow and it will hold up in the track. Lots for the bowlers in it, but not impossible to bat on.
Hello and Good Afternoon! Welcome to our live coverage of India's tour of England. The hosts will resume from 23/0 with an under-pressure Keaton Jennings on 13 and Alastair Cook on 9. They survived some probing effort from Ishant Sharma and Mohammed Shami in the nine overs that were bowled late on on Day 3. Will be interesting how England approach this considering they have six sessions and it doesn't look impossible to win from here. But, it is a massive task still. They will have to set a record score in the fourth innings to chase down the target. Start in half an hour
