    Watched the whole morning session. Decided to change England's luck by turning it off and sticking on TMS for the afternoon session. Wicket first ball. You're welcome.

    Atkinson traps Gill lbw with first ball after lunch

    Red. Red. RED.

    First ball after lunch and Shubman Gill is out to a Gus Atkinson inswinger.

    The bowler roars. Who saw that coming?

    Shubman Gill is out lbw! Or is he? India's captain has reviewed it.

    Plenty left in this game yet. India still need to get over 300 lead. Anything less, England will chase down.

  8. The players are making their way back onto the field after lunch.

    India are 189-3, with Yashasvi Jaiswal on 85 (106) and Shubman Gill on 11 (8).

    England are having a huddle on the outfield. Much to discuss.

  9. Session timings

    Remember, due to the rain on days one and two, the session times have once again been extended.

    • Second session: 13:40-15:55
    • Tea: 15:55-16:15
    • Third session: 16:15-18:30 (plus an extra half hour)

    It has turned incredibly into India's favour.

    What will happen is you'll have half an hour off and then they will reassess their gameplan.

    England like chasing and they have to start thinking about their strengths.

    Can I get a shout out for England’s newest fan, Lola. Born yesterday and listening in from Milton Keynes hospital as she learns an important life lesson that England will always make hard work of it.

    Josh

    Congratulations!

    Fastest fifties by India No.4s in England since 2000:

    • 44 balls - Tendulkar, Nottingham 2002
    • 56 balls - Gill, Leeds 2025
    • 57 balls - Gill, Birmingham 2025 (3rd inns)
    • 70 balls - Deep, Oval 2025

  13. Sir Alastair Cook
    Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    I've been impressed with how Yashasvi Jaiswal has managed the tempo of the innings today.

    Yesterday, he was frenetic and fully determined to put England under pressure.

    This morning, he added 30-odd runs, but at a lower tempo.

  14. However, England would eventually break the partnership, with Jamie Overton removing Akash Deep shortly before lunch.

    He was replaced by India captain Shubman Gill - the leading run-scorer in the series. Gill was unbeaten on 11 (8) at lunch while Yashasvi Jaiswal has 85 (106).

    'Finally!' - Overton removes Deep for first wicket of the day

  15. Akash Deep scored his maiden Test century off 70 balls and went on to make 66 (94) - his career high score.

  16. Speaking of highlights, let's take a look back at what's happened so far today, shall we?

    India resumed on 75-2 with nightwatch Akash Deep (2) batting alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal (51).

    And this unlikely partnership, aided by some poor fielding from England, put on 107 for India's third wicket.

    Thanks Matt.

  19. They did eventually get a wicket but that was not the session England planned. Akash Deep and Yashasvi Jaiswal were superb and India are now right in command.

    That said, wickets tumbled in the afternoon yesterday and could do so again today. Elizabeth Botcherby will take you through lunch and beyond.

    I think England's sarcastic humour might be lost on the Indians.
