Commentary
- 4.60Jasprit Bumrah to Ben Duckett, No run.
- 4.54Jasprit Bumrah to Ben Duckett, EDGED, FOUR MORE! Just how many players does a bowler need in that slip cordon? Full, outside off, pretty wide, Ben Duckett plays at this with an open bat face and gets a thick outside edge.
- 4.41Jasprit Bumrah to Ollie Pope, Just short of full, outside off, Ollie dabs it towards cover and takes the single.
- 4.30Jasprit Bumrah to Ollie Pope, Landed outside off, driven back to the bowler.
- 4.24Jasprit Bumrah to Ollie Pope, EDGED, FOUR MORE! This is a real examination of batting technique by Bumrah. Almost a replica of the Crawley dismissal. On a good length, around middle and off, Pope looks to work it to the leg side but the ball pitches and then moves away, completely squaring him up. The leading edge is taken and the ball flies behind, but between third slip and gully, to the deep third fence!
- 4.12Jasprit Bumrah to Ollie Pope, On a length, outside off, Ollie Pope plays it late, riding the bounce and dabbing it late past gully. Picks up two.
- END OF OVER 4 | 10 Runs & 0 Wkt | ENG 24/1
- 3.64Mohammed Siraj to Ben Duckett, FOUR! Excelllent batting. On a length, outside off, angling away, Ben Duckett gets behind the line of the ball and at the last moment, opens the face of his bat to guide it past gully. The fielder gets a hand to it to his right but the ball bursts past for a boundary. 10 from the over. England trail by 447.
- 3.50Mohammed Siraj to Ben Duckett, Around off, driven nicely but straight to cover.
- 3.40Mohammed Siraj to Ben Duckett, Full, around off, BD defends it down the pitch.
- 3.30Mohammed Siraj to Ben Duckett, Down the leg side, Ben misses his flick.
- 3.22Mohammed Siraj to Ben Duckett, Shorter in length now, outside off, Duckett punches it through cover-point for a couple.
- 3.14Mohammed Siraj to Ben Duckett, FOUR! HANDSOME! Overpitched from Siraj, outside off, Ben Duckett leans and drives it through mid off for a boundary.
- END OF OVER 3 | 1 Runs & 0 Wkt | ENG 14/1
- 2.60Jasprit Bumrah to Ollie Pope, On a length, outside off, defended from the crease. Bumrah and events - are like day and night. Don't take your eyes off. If this guy bowls 10 overs on the trot, you never know what might happen.
- 2.50Jasprit Bumrah to Ollie Pope, Outside off, pushed towards cover.
- 2.41lbJasprit Bumrah to Ben Duckett, SAVED BY A HAIR'S BREADTH! Superb bowling but how good was the umpiring? To the naked eye, this seemed like a yorker, pitched around leg stump, which Duckett looked to flick but missed. India appealed, correction - only Bumrah appealed but umpire Chris Gaffaney shook his head. However, Jasprit Bumrah was confident and convinced Gill to take the review for LBW. The replay shows why Bumrah was confident. The ball did not pitch at all. It landed full on Duckett's front boot and now, this looked really close. However, Ball Tracking gave the impact to be OUTSIDE LEG! India do not seem to be too happy with that decision and Giull clarifies something with Gaffaney. All good in the end as Gill indicates a thumbs up.
- Review time! After a lot of deliberation, Shubman Gill has taken the review for LBW. To the naked eye, that seemed to pitch outside leg. However, a closer look in the replay seems to indicate that it was a full toss. This looks close! Ooohhh... impact is outside leg!
- 2.30Jasprit Bumrah to Ben Duckett, Around off, pushed to the off side again.
- 2.20Jasprit Bumrah to Ben Duckett, Around off, pushed towards cover.
- 2.10Jasprit Bumrah to Ben Duckett, EDGED, SHORT! This guy is pure venom at this stage. On a length, outside off, Ben Duckett looks to guide it away but does not keep it down. Goes off the edge and lands just short of Yashasvi Jaiswal at gully.
- END OF OVER 2 | 9 Runs & 0 Wkt | ENG 13/1
- Mark Butcher on air informs us that Tea will be taken at 9.20 pm IST (1550 GMT). No reduction in overs, as we still have 61 overs left after this one, weather permitting. Given the Tea time, the Stumps time will be extended as well. Add another 30 minutes for pending overs. All those who believe the third innings will start tonight, put your hands up. And all those, who believe that England will bat in the third innings, hold on to your horses till the day ends.
- 1.64Mohammed Siraj to Ollie Pope, FOUR! Not intended but Pope will take it. On a length, outside off, Ollie Pope gently opens the face of his bat but the ball runs off the outside edge. Along the ground, to the right of gully, to the deep third fence.
- 1.50Mohammed Siraj to Ollie Pope, Full and wide outside off, swinging away, Pope shoulders arms.
