Will England rue six dropped catches in India's second innings?

  1. Ind 338-7published at 79 overs

    Lead by 315

    Ravindra Jadeja adds four more to continue his Sobers-esque effort. This one is a well-timed pull shot off Jamie Overton.

    At 36, this could be Jadeja's last Test innings in England. Joe Root will bowl the final over before the new ball.

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

    England's seamers have kind of done the job.

    Seven down and there has been five dropped catches.

    I have been impressed with Gus Atkinson, Josh Tongue and Jamie Overton. The fitness, heart and desire is there.

    Jadeja overturns lbw decision on review

    500 runs in the series now for Ravindra Jadeja. This is only the second time a player has come to England and made 500+ runs and bowled 100+ overs in a series - the previous time was Garfield Sobers in 1966.

  4. Ind 330-7published at 78 overs

    Jadeja 38, Sundar 5

    It looks like England could bowl spin on this pitch for another week and still not get a wicket.

  5. Ind 327-7published at 77 overs

    Lead by 304

    Of course this is now the partnership that England were unable to break at Manchester. England have had more than their fill of Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja in the past fortnight.

    Washington ducks to evade a 89mph Overton bouncer.

    Washington Sundar is probably the world's best number nine. There is still work for England to do.

    There will be three overs after this one before the new ball becomes available.

    That was a very good delivery.

    You could see the seam was meant to be swinging the ball away.

    Overton removes Jurel lbw as India lose final review

    Jamie Overton has deserved this. It's a good ball that has nipped away, beaten Jurel as he looked to work to leg and hit the back pad.

    India are now out of reviews too.

    There's no edge.

    It's out if there's no edge.

    The commentator's curse!

    This must be out. Dhruv Jurel reviews after being given out lbw.

  12. Ind 323-6published at 76 overs

    Lead by 299

    The highest chase at The Oval in Test history is 263, although there have been many higher scores made in the fourth innings in defeat.

    Dhruv Jurel, who I rate very highly, continues to look as solid as The Rock.

    So far, absolutely no sign of turn from Joe Root or Jacob Bethell.

  14. Ind 320-6published at 75 overs

    Lead by 297

    That's better from Jamie Overton, who thuds one down at 89mph after the frustration of that top-edge. Overton has been better today.

    PitchViz for this afternoon's session was 2.9/10, the lowest for any in the Test - i.e. the best for batting.

    Suggestions that this lively pitch may be flattening out

  16. Ind 318-6published at 74.2 overs

    They've been and got the red-shirted man a grey Surrey top from the club shop! Remarkable.

    Now the crowd is sarcastically cheering as the man gets it over his head.

    Ravindra Jadeja gives a thumbs up and then top-edges over the keeper for four.

  17. Ind 312-6published at 74 overs

    The suited man is indeed speaking to the spectator in a red polo shirt. He's not moving and is shaking his head.

    Helpfully, a young lad in an even redder jumper has taken his seat in the row in front.

  18. Ind 310-6published at 73.1 overs

    A serious-looking man in a suit is now getting involved.

  19. Ind 310-6published at 73 overs

    Ravindra Jadeja is complaining about something behind the bowler's arm.

    There's a chap down there in a bright red t-shirt below the sightscreen. I hope they're not going to ask him to take it off.
