335-3 at lunch

Root 156*, Stokes 63*

92 runs in that session with the odd ball misbehaving and the wicket just beginning to break up s little bit.

Never doubt Ben Stokes, how many times does he have to prove it?

A draw by far the most likely result for me but England's spinners will have a chance even if they're nowhere near the quality of a Graeme Swann. I reckon more likely Anderson will get a few tbh.

Swann and Panesar outbowled the Indians last time England won here in 2013.

One thing of note the desperation of Kohli, he took s chance on possibly the worst review ever when It was clearly off the glove and followed it up by wasting the second soon after.
 
I didn't watch yesterday .... stuff to do and thought I'd let the test develop etc. Switch on as soon as i woke to watch a live test match for the first time in what, 15 years? Just in time for an England wicket to fall. Runs have dried up since. :oops:

Some things never change.

Need this partnership to get through, but looking much tougher now.

Three number elevens to come, Leach with a test average of 16 may be the best of them with Anderson's only 9 and Archer 8.

I know it's skewed by the ireland innings but he looks to have a defence
