    Can't see Jadeja taking any quick singles here like he was with Reddy

    Surely it's time to give Archer a burst

    They have probably been gambling in waiting for Archer until the new ball is due but with Jadeja just hitting the first boundary for almost 18 overs the chances are that they might bring him on before then.

    Think Nass is right and he needs another one under the lid here with Pope

    The England bowlers' economy rates for the Series have improved somewhat as a result of today's slug fest.

    Will Jadeja do his usual exuberant 50 celebration?

    At lunch I thought we had it in the bag. 

    An hour later I thought India had it won

    With Bhumrah's wicket I thought it was all over.

    Now I think India have it won. Ball too soft & not going anything.

    I think 34 is still going to take some getting.

    Especially when only 1 guy is going to score them

    11 overs to the new ball. Issue there is although it will do more it will also become easier for Jadeja to hit a boundary

    88mph that last ball before tea after that mammoth spell. What a bloke. 

    Have we ever had a cricketer give more for the badge than Ben Stokes?

    Yet again we go to the final session of the 5th day. 

    Bizarre how we've gone from 2.5 days of dull flat pitch, to a minefield, to an absolute grind.

    Stokes should have given Archer a couple of over before tea

    So, what do we all think ? Who wins this one ? It should be England but I can just see India sneaking it.

    And the new ball is due in 10 overs time. Will be get that far & if so do you take it ? India might only need a few runs at that point. New ball will come off the bat quicker & go to the boundary faster.
