    Nasser Hussein always does but then he has Indian heritage.
    Ravi Shastri is Indian.
    Isa Guha's parents are Indian.

    Krishna has got it talking at the minute. 

    Nearly a run out too! All happening!
    Krishna will be disappointed he didn't get Hare Brook out.

    Ha ha India's arrogance means that they have no reviews left whereas we still have three

    And then Jadeja goes mad at Thakur for not just failing to stop a ball but then not getting up to stop the extra runs.

    No, all 90 overs have to be bowled as it’s the last day

    I said we would need to go at 4.5 an over to nearly reach the target before the second new ball and we have.

    Even better, I thought there might have been about some ruling before? I am still not watching it until we are down to the last 10. (runs not wickets).

    8 runs off that over.

    3 overs to the new ball - England require 30 more runs.

    Trying to get as many runs knocked off the total before Bumrah returns...

    At least fifteen overs must be bowled (unless the have finishes sooner) from the start of the final hour

    Have we ever won a Test when the opposition have scored 5 hundreds?
    Athers confirms that there has never been a Test match, for anyone, that has been lost by a team that has had 5 individual hundreds.

    I don't know what you're all so excited about. England had this from ball 1. As I said

    The best thing about this run chase is that England for the best part have gone about it by playing proper cricket shots
