    Shep would be hopping around like a madman 
    What would he do with an overnight scoreboard of 555-8 !

    Quintuple Nelson isn't a phrase you hear very often!

    Root is certainly making a habit of taking root at the wicket  :)

    I’m waiting for Stigthundercock to come on and lavish some praise on Root like he so often does 
  • Who else is awake then? More insomnia than planning but I'm here... maybe these commentators will put me to sleep.
  • 578 all out. Mammoth score.

    Let's get a couple of early wickets and hope they wobble a bit.
  • Archer got Rohit 
    27-1 
  • 44-2 great catch from Jimmy off Jofras bowling

    I’m up for the 2nd session of the day again. Just can’t do a 4am alarm unless I’m going on holiday. A good start!?

    Underrated ball the full toss. Amazing catch from Root!

    India in trouble here? 73-4 and still 505 runs behind.

    If there was any MoM doubt Root thought I’ll better add a one handed catch!
  • Pujara always the danger man v us.

    Want England to win obviously but part of me wants India to put a partnership together and make a fist of it. I don’t really enjoy one sided skittled tests (even against the number one test team!)

    Exciting counter-attack from India. Pant’s batting like he has a train to catch - or wants to be Ben Stokes. Can’t last long at this frenetic pace surely?

    Nah. Know what you mean though! 
  • Wow. Pant not hanging about here 
  • Pujara is like Dravid and then at the other end there's Pant smashing everything

    Only joking boss. 
  • Root should bring himself on for a couple of overs as Pant and Pujara might treat him as a part timer and take a few liberties. It's not as if, in the context of the game, runs matter although he never really goes for many anyway.

    Root could have bowled that "long hop"!
  • Helpful deflection for that catch!
