    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?

    In Josh Tongue's last Test, which was against Australia, he had five wickets, all of whom were top-order batters.

    Triple wicket-maiden for Josh Tongue as Prasidh Krishna blocks out the last two balls of the over.

    The physio immediately has to come out for Krishna, who clipped Tongue's final delivery into an unprotected part of his leg.

    That's not a great shot when you've got Ravindra Jadeja at the other end. This is great for the game but India would like at least 20 or 30 more on the board.

    Josh Tongue has splattered the stumps. India are falling away here. England are going to be batting before you know it.

    'He's splattered the stumps!' - Tongue takes three wickets in over

    But he takes a wicket with his next delivery!

    A third wicket in the over for Josh Tongue, bowling Jasprit Bumrah as the tailender takes an ugly swipe towards the leg side.

    A poor shot in any circumstances.

    A yorker from Josh Tongue and Jasprit Bumrah jams his bat down to fend it into the leg side.

    Good bouncer from Josh Tongue, nice simple one for Jamie Smith. He's a really awkward bowler to go against, he's tall, he's quick, it's not easy to face that on your first ball.

    Josh Tongue has got another! Will he clean up?

    Back-to-back wickets - Josh Tongue is on a hat-trick!

    A short ball from the England seamer and Mohammed Siraj can only cuff it down the leg side, where a diving Jamie Smith collects.

    Siraj walks off shaking his hand, while Jasprit Bumrah comes out to face the hat-trick ball.

    That was Joe Root's 210th catch, which ties him with Rahul Dravid for the most Test catches by a non-wicketkeeper.

    A bit of bounce from Josh Tongue, good length but good catch from Joe Root.

    Will Josh Tongue clean up again?

    Josh Tongue has another wicket in the tail!

    Shardul Thakur slashes at a full delivery from the England seamer and sends a thick edge to Joe Root at first slip.

    The players will take drinks now.

    Ravindra Jadeja has been involved in nine Test run-outs, eight of which have resulted in his team-mate's dismissal.

    A maiden for Chris Woakes, bowling to Jadeja.

    The India batter hurries down the track to opening delivery after pushing into the covers, but is sent back by his batting partner.

    Regardless of the final score, whoever wins etc. This match is a great advert for five-day Test cricket. Two teams, going at it, players playing their game and adapting it to the conditions and context. Long live Test cricket. There's nothing I'd rather be watching instead of working.

    Ravindra Jadeja and Shardul Thakur are both natural stroke players. Any time there's a chance to take a swing at it, they will.

  18. Ind 349-6published at 89 overs

    Josh Tongue replaces Brydon Carse - he cleaned up the tail in the first innings, when India lost 7-41.

    England have dropped some gilt-edged chances, but you can’t help to feel that once Pant got out then India have dropped momentum and it’s allowed England back in this game!

    I haven't seen a change of pace from India this innings that looks like they would declare but it might happen naturally anyway.
