Think they will need more than 350 to 400. If Jofra is up to speed it will be no fun facing him on this pitch.

I think Pope is the one most in danger, Bethell will easily slip in at 3 or 4. Not many opener alternatives around, especially ones that are good against the short ball.

Already had a good go and struggled with the short ball, don't think he is the man to take to australia

Spot on. Pope is playing so far away from his body. He is a walking if he doesn't sort it out.

To be fair it was a pretty good ball that got Crawley out.

Wonder what india will do next test. Who will they drop to get Bumrah back in. Siraj and deep have been superb, but dropping anyone else would me going in with no real front line spinner or lengthing their tail.

Had curry at school in 80s. Was always the day before stew with some curry powder and sultans in.

India have had the rub of the green with umpires calls this test. They have been the better team comfortably mind.

India should definitely declare at tea. I suspect they won't

You are probably right in saying 450 is too many, but there is no way india will declare on a 450 lead. They will want at least 500 probably 550. If there is rain then they may declare on slightly less

Question is what score will England declare on :-)

I think you will have to pay more than 4 million to clubs to get rid of that lot :-)

I don't see how India can win from here. Even if they bowl England out quickly from here they will not risk setting england less than 500, probably more, and they will take too long to get those runs to leave time to bowl England out. I still think the draw is the most likely result, India will...

Found not guilty under the law, and rightly so, but is still a wrongun. They couldn't terminate his contract when he was charged even though they tried, they didn't play him though.

As you say everyone knew it was him, wonder why it took so long to charge him after he was arrested.
