    I don't mind that. It's a brilliant catch from Josh Tongue in the end, windy day, sun in the eyes, he got himself in the perfect position

    India have done well to get to the position that they are in. Now they've been forced to bowl but it could work in their favour.

    England will be thinking about one thing and one thing only, that's the number of runs they need. It will be a tough ask.

    Josh Tongue out in the deep, diving to his left. England have finally wrapped up this innings.

    Tongue takes diving catch at deep mid-wicket to dismiss Krishna with India all out for 364

    Shoaib Bashir wraps up the innings after a very good catch from Josh Tongue.

    India had clearly decided the time was right to hit out or get out as, rather that defend the last ball of the over, Prasidh Krishna has a big swing.

    He sends the ball high into the leg side and Tongue does very well to keep his eye on it before diving to take a smart catch.

    Lead by 369

    Plenty of faffing about from England there as Ben Stokes tries to get his field exactly right.

    That leads to him being given a second warning by the umpires for taking too long between overs.

    England are going to show Ravindra Jadeja something different. Time for a bit of off-spin from Shoaib Bashir.

    India’s approach post tea has been baffling. They should be bowling by now, that gives Bumrah a full spell today and he can come in fresh for a full spell tomorrow.

    Are India now playing time as they're worried that England can chase down 370+.

  7. Ind 363-9published at 95 overs

    Lead by 369

    Ben Stokes chooses not to bring the field up with two balls left in the Josh Tongue over so Jadeja is able to take an easy single.

    Just one ball for number 11 Krishna to face this time and he just about keeps it out.

    I don't know how he's got that for six, there wasn't much elevation.

  9. 6 runs

    Lead by 368

    That's more like it from Ravindra Jadeja.

    Full ball from Josh Tongue, in the arc and the left-hander nails it over the leg side for six!

    Four next ball, pulled into the gap between the two fielders behind square.

    I understand that there are times where you would leave runs but now isn't the time to do that. They should just go for it and if they're bowled out, they aren't in a bad situation.

  11. Ind 352-9published at 94 overs

    Lead by 358

    Once again, Prasidh Krishna is left with two balls to negotiate and, once more, he does just that.

    India and Ravindra Jadeja are dealing in singles - one an over - for the time being.

    At some point that will surely change.

  12. dropped catch

    Jadeja dropped on 12published at 93.3 overs

    Ind 351-9

    So close for England!

    Ravindra Jadeja does play a shot in anger, whipping the ball out to deep square leg.

    Ben Duckett didn't pick it up straightaway and that brief delay proves costly as he comes in but can't quite get his fingers under the ball as he dives forward.

    Dot ball...

  13. Ind 351-9published at 93 overs

    Lead by 357

    Two solid blocks from Prasidh Krishna so on we go.

    If a wicket falls now, England will have a little under 45 minutes to bat this evening.

    It's unclear what India's thinking is here. The players in the dressing room all have their whites on, ready to go but, at the same time, Ravindra Jadeja isn't really going into all-out attack mode to try and score a few quick runs.

    If India get bowled out, it will favour them more than England. 357 will be hard to chase.

    I think India missed a trick here. After tea they should've just dropped and ran or hit it big with them bowling against England tonight in mind. I just don't think they've played with that much intent this evening.

    Thanks, Mike. This is all set up for a very exciting finale, isn't it?

    After turning down singles in the first half of the over, Ravindra Jadeja takes one to deep third fourth ball.

    Josh Tongue will have two balls at Prasidh Krishna.

    It's a lovely sunny evening at Headingley, I'm going to hand you over to Sam Drury for the what should be a fascinating final hour or so.

  17. Ind 350-9published at 92 overs

    Lead by 356

    Ravindra Jadeja takes a single off the fourth ball of Chris Woakes' over, taking India to 350 and leaving Prasidh Krishna two deliveries to survive.

    The first of those flies just past the edge of the tail-ender's bat.

    Totally agree with Luke 17:03. This has been a fantastic match, centuries, a five-fer, dropped catches, the lot. Big ask, but if England go all out it could be an all-time classic. India must dread leaving a chase that’s too low for the potential this England team have to run down a score

    Josh Tongue single handedly solving England's 'can't remove the tail' problem.

    John, Bath

    England will really fancy this.

    Will, Crete

    Have England finally found someone who can bowl at the tail?
