Fenix review: ‘A large, brash cabaret of a thing — good for them'
I circle around Fenix three times before finding the entrance. Google Maps has sent me to an ominously modern office-style building with dark windows. Every few metres, through the gloomy panes, I see great stone monoliths covered in Greek script. It's the only sign I'm on to something. This austere development seems far more likely to offer me an internship with KPMG than a stuffed vine leaf. We're in an odd bit of Manchester just south of the Irwell, near the science museum. Every time I visit this city, it's as if another neighbourhood has sprung up overnight. This one seems halfway sprung, with a still-in-progress air. In a few months the building opposite will be home to Manchester's branch of Soho House, and any number of other glamorous things. Right now, it's a vision of hi-vis jackets.

Alas, I shall save my own take on 'Nessun Dorma' for another day. Honours even after the first session? It feels like it. Update: Date: 13:05 BST Title: Post Content: And on that note, I'm going to find some lunch and maybe take a closer look at the Irwell, which is now looking majestic in the sunshine.

Update: Date: 25 overs Title: Lunch - Ind 98-2 Content: Jaiswal 62, Gill 1 Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill trade a trio of singles in a low-key final over. It's pretty even at lunch with India 98-2 Chris Woakes took the early wicket of KL Rahul before India, who were put in to bat, rebuilt through Yashasvi Jaiswal and Karun Nair. However, on the stroke of lunch Brydon Carse snared Nair to give England two wickets in the session. Update: Date: 12:59 BST Title: Get Involved Content: #bbccricket, via WhatsApp on 03301231826 or text 81111 (standard network charges apply) That wicket gives us a shared session. Carse really deserved that wicket. Bowled very well in his first spell with no reward. Viren, from Croydon Update: Date: 24 overs Title: Ind 95-2 Content: Shubman Gill safely defends the remaining three balls of the over. England's mood will have improved considerably with the wicket of Karun Nair. We'll have one more over before lunch and it's time for the spin of Shoaib Bashir.

Update: Date: 12:56 BST Title: Post Content: Ebony Rainford-BrentFormer England batter on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra England really needed that and India would've felt they were the better side in this session before that wicket. And there's still some time left. Update: Date: 12:56 BST Title: Post Content: Prakash WakankarBBC Test Match Special commentator Just what the doctor ordered for England. Ben Stokes rings the changes and it's a simple catch at second slip.

Brydon Carse has a wicket with the third ball of his second spell, Karun Nair picking out Harry Brook at second slip. Elly shares the credit with Ben Stokes for Carse's reintroduction. Nair departs for 31. Update: Date: 12:54 BST Title: Post Content: Elly (@12:49) - Ben Stokes must be reading this live. Brydon Carse comes back into the attack just before lunch, replacing Josh Tongue. Update: Date: 12:53 BST Title: Post Content: Ebony Rainford-BrentFormer England batter on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra There's no doubt today that there's frustration for the seam bowlers because there's not much movement for them. Update: Date: 23 overs Title: Ind 93-1 Content: A slight heart in mouth moment for Yashasvi Jaiswal as he attempts to pull Ben Stokes' shorter ball but can only top edge it high into the Edgbaston sky. It drops comfortably short of Chris Woakes at fine leg. India take a single and add another before the end of the over. Update: Date: 12:49 BST Title: Get Involved Content: #bbccricket, via WhatsApp on 03301231826 or text 81111 (standard network charges apply) As soon as Carse came out of the attack India moved into the ascendancy. Tongue not convincing against the top order. Elly Update: Date: 12:49 BST Title: Post Content: Ebony Rainford-BrentFormer England batter on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra Jaiswal is such a talent and he's got a rounded game. He's so young, he's got good temperament and will want to back up that hundred from the first innings [at Headingley]. He's not saying no to the contest. Update: Date: 22 overs Title: Ind 91-1 Content: Yashasvi Jaiswal makes it three boundaries in a row. Josh Tongue's sixth over costs 14 runs. It's looking like India will be the happier of the two sides at lunch.

Update: Date: 12:47 BST Title: Post Content: Prakash WakankarBBC Test Match Special commentator Beautiful shot from Yashasvi Jaiswal and he raises his bat for yet another Test 50. Update: Date: 21.4 overs Title: Fifty for Jaiswal Content: This video can not be played Jaiswal brings up 50 - best shots Yashasvi Jaiswal hooks Josh Tongue for four to move to 49 and brings up his half-century in similarly glorious fashion, cutting away for another boundary. He was handed a lifeline on 12 after an lbw decision was adjudged umpire's call and has grasped it with both hands. He has 53 off 59 balls.
