England have had almost twice the amount of movement in the air and almost a third more off the pitch in comparison to yesterday.

Jasprit Bumrah will be licking his lips at the thought of bowling on this surface, as will Mohammed Siraj.
Update:
Date: 114 overs
Title: Ind 358-9
Content: Mohammed Siraj backs away and gives it the long handle down the ground for a one-bounce four off Ben Stokes. That will perturb the England captain.
Jofra Archer is primed to wrap this up...

Rishabh Pant provided special moment in the whole series. He's been tremendous throughout but to see him hobble out there to continue to bat is remarkable. I can only imagine what is going on in that boot.

Title: Ind 354-9
Content: Mohammed Siraj backs away to Ben Stokes and goes for a filthy slog but cannot make contact. Next ball Stokes goes full and Siraj digs out a yorker.

Rishabh Pant has probably added about 30-40 runs that could be very significant in the context of this game.

Foot or no foot, I think I've identified a weakness in Pant's game. It's deliveries bowled at 90mph from round the wicket, angling in, nipping away and just clipping the top of off stump. Work to be done there, I'd say...
Update:
Date: 113 overs
Title: Ind 354-9
Content: I guess it depends on the game situation in the second innings on whether we see Rishabh Pant bat again.
Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah are India's last-wicket pair. Will they eke or attack?

Almost everyone on their feet again to applaud Rishabh Pant. That may be the last we see of him in this series.
I really hope not.

Just a little prod from Rishabh Pant, Jofra Archer is delighted to get that one. The brave run from Rishabh Pant comes to an end, every run precious for India. He's extracted as many as he could.

Jofra Archer knocks Rishabh Pant's off stump out of the ground!
Pant attempts to defend backwards but ends up stuck on the crease a little and Archer manages to find sufficient movement off the seam from round the wicket.
The stump is sent cartwheeling before spiking in the ground like a javelin.

This is Ben Stokes' fifth five-fer in 115 Test matches. It's his first since 2017 where he had a six-fer against the West Indies at Lords. This is his 76th Test since his last five-fer. He's taken the most wickets in this series compared to any other that he's played in, he currently has 16.

Title: Ind 349-8
Content: Rishabh Pant is waddling singles, in the manner of a penguin trying to run the 100m.
Ben Stokes throws his head back in anguish after a delivery zips off the pitch which beats the outside edge of Jasprit Bumrah's bat.
