    Love Stokes finishing his over and shouting “Fire it up again Jof”, little comments like that are great captaincy

    Jadejas suicidal running is going to cause chaos.

    It was taking out middle stump, how was that not given?
    I suspect that the umpire thought that the double sound was him hitting the ball onto the pads. That's what reviews should be used for rather than the desperate ones we see on a daily basis from batters and bowlers alike.
    Yes, but it seemed clear to me that the bat was behind the pad.
    It is but when someone is bowling at 85mph bat and pad are so close together it can be difficult to differentiate the order of the two sounds from 22 yards. It all happens so fast. Reviews are the very reason why umpires in club games get so much stick for making mistakes because they don't have the benefit of rectifying those.

    Just need one of these 2 ASAP as they won't be able to rotate the strike with Bumrah & Siraj to come.

    Agreed that will make the total look bigger and also force the remaining proper batsmen to take more risks,I can't watch the match having a mare its been one of those when ever I watch we take no wickets or lose them so doing my part somehow lol

    Indian are a talented team and amazing that Rohit Sharma, Kohli and Ashwin have all retired in the last year and yet they are still a force in world cricket with their vast production belt of cricketers.
    If India had held their catches in the 1st test they would be 2 up already but it's 1-1 and an intriguing final day ahead.
    Helps having one a half billion people and cricket as the number one sport.

    They should absolutely dominate tbh.
    exactly. Barely able in any other sport, apart from some hockey and the odd exception

    Preferably Jadeja before he digs in for a 200 ball 50 that wins them the match.

    There's something ironic about Stokes stepping in as peacemaker.

    so important to get that wicket before lunch - I think the Indians would have gone on to win without it.

    Another brilliantly timed wicket, completely  changing the mood in both dressing rooms.

    Well done the guys on here slagging off Woakes as Captain Stokes told him the criticism as he handed the ball to him for that final over.

    Reddy steady Go back to the pavilion, you are out 👏🏼
