I don't understand why India haven't used their spinners more. Get Jadeja on to fire it in, and try and slow the run rate down, and maybe force an error. The seamers can't keep bowling all afternoon.

Feels like India are missing Pant to gee up the rest of the team, it sounds very quiet out there
Exactly the same issue England have had without Stokes on the pitch.
Finally Jadeja is bowling. Maybe someone had a word with Gill during the drinks break.
And even then they didn't get it right. Fire it in from over the wicket, bring the fielders in. Maybe you might be able to bore Brook out, but even if England just pad it away for half an hour, at least it gives the fast bowlers a rest until after tea.
4 of the top 6 run scorers in this series are Indian, and it would be 4 of the top 5 if Pant hadn't got injured. Yet they're (touch wood) going to lose the series 3-1 and could've easily been 4-1.
Brook once and for all putting to bed the argument that he’s just a flat track bully. Match winning performance. Not convinced by bethell here, but if root stays we’re home.

I've not posted so as not to jinx it and the wife's been in the garden for hours.
She just came in to make tea and I told her to get out sharpish and I'll make the tea.
Toooo late Brook is out almost immediately.
They were so loud this morning when the wee man Duckett and Pope were batting. Root and Brook shut them up !
A class player.
