Elizabeth Botcherby & Matthew Henry

  1. The clock has now ticked beyond 13:00. This will be the last ball before lunch.

  2. Boos from the crowd as the India batters come together again between the fifth and sixth balls of the over. Yashasvi Jaiswal is complaining of cramp.

  3. Ind 186-3

    Gill drives Tongue through covers for four

    Stunning.

    A textbook cover drive as good as anything you will see from Shubman Gill. That will waste a few seconds too.

  4. Ind 182-3

    India are trying to ensure this is the last over before lunch. Can England muster a piece of magic after the Deep dismissal?

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

  5. How's stat?!

    Akash Deep's dismissal is the 11th instance of India losing a wicket in the 10 minutes before lunch during this series.

  6. Ind 181-3

    Lead by 153

    This was the problem.

    Jamie Overton, into the eighth over of his spell, gifts Shubman Gill a wide ball early on which the India captain slaps away. Overton follows through up into Gill's face at the end of the over and he responds with a cheeky smile.

  7. After stopping to shake the hand of his nightwatchman, Shubman Gill jogs to the middle.

    England need to get him here. The lead is 154.

    A brilliant knock by Akash Deep, 66 valuable runs.

    The Indian balcony stands to a very popular member of their team.

    WICKET

    Deep c Atkinson b Overton 66 (Ind 177-3)

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

    Finally. England get their breakthrough as Akash Deep loops a Jamie Overton bouncer off a leading edge.

    Deep still gets a standing ovation from the India dressing room.

  10. Ind 177-2

    The camera picks out Ben Stokes in the England dressing room who is prowling uncomfortably and shaking his head. England just look lost.

    Jamie Overton continues.

    Deep powers Atkinson away for four to bring up maiden test half-century

  11. Ind 176-2

    Top-edged over the 'keeper.

    English hands are on hips.

  12. Ind 172-2

    Edged through the gap again! This was a proper edge from Akash Deep on the drive. Ben Duckett threw himself across but couldn't get there.

    That's the hundred partnership.

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

    It could get to a stage where India have to think about looking at the forecast. If these two are still bating in 15 minutes and bat a long way down they will have to look at the overall situation.

  14. Josh Tongue is back with 15 minutes to go before lunch. You feel like he needs two wickets here at least to boost England.

    Crucial spell.

  15. Ind 167-2

    Lead by 144

    A rare edge through the slips brings four and makes this Akash Deep's highest score in any form of professional cricket. Jamie Overton then fires one down the leg side which a heavy-footed Jamie Smith fails to stop. It really could not have gone much worse for England.

    'Another one that's gone down!' - England spurn another chance as Crawley drops Jaiswal

  16. How personal tragedy motivates India seamer Deep

    Akash Deep celebrates his half-centuryGetty Images

    Akash Deep's name only began resonating in cricket circles after his 10 wickets in the second Test at Edgbaston and this innings will send it even further.

    But, his story stretches far deeper.

    Born in a small village in Bihar, one of India's most economically challenged states, Akash grew up believing cricket was a game for the wealthy. It was his childhood friend Vaibhav Kumar who first instilled belief in him.

    "Cricket wasn't very popular in Bihar back then. In our entire district, barely 20 to 25 people were playing leather-ball cricket," Vaibhav says.

    "Akash mostly played with a tennis ball, but whenever we took him along for a leather-ball match, he would always help us win. But Akash thought that only the rich could play cricket."

  17. Ind 158-2

    Lead by 135

    The great Ricky Ponting is ticking about the lengths England are bowling on TV commentary. Too short, he says.

    Akash is now calling for a drink to be run out at the end of the over. He's in it for the long haul.

  18. Sir Alastair Cook

    Deep pulls Atkinson for four through the leg side

    Akash Deep has been brave and he has been smart.

    Incredibly valuable and he's also made me look very silly as a pundit.

    I didn't think we would have a Deep 50 and no wickets in an hour and half.

  19. Ind 155-2

    Joe Root looks to be the one trying to keep England spirits high as he chirps some encouragement from slip. The home fans in the crowd are quiet.

    I think India only need to add another 100 runs to have a potentially match-winning lead. Thoughts....
