  2. 'It's been a long journey'published at 17:57 British Summer Time 14 July

    More from England's Jofra Archer to Sky Sports: "The first celebration was a bit emotional, yeah. It has been a long journey and I can't tell you about the amount of keyboard warriors there have been over the past three years or so.

    "I was going to try and not to be [too excited] but as soon as the catch was taken, that just went out of the window, the joy and the crowd. They gave me a huge lift. Every moment, it's made all the hard work and the rehab worth it.

    "It was a collective effort. We came together as a group yesterday and said, you know, sometimes we're too nice. We go to other places and some teams are not as nice to us as we are to them so I guess we just tried to shift it. I don't know if it gave us a bit more of a buzz in the field or not but we will keep it in the bank for the future!

    "It wasn't a proud moment [to Rishabh Pant]. I just told him to cherish that moment. He came down the track and that annoyed me a little bit so when the ball nipped down the slope, I was so grateful for that."

    Ben Stokes confirms that Shoaib Bashir has broken his finger and will miss the Old Trafford Test at least.

    A little selection headache for England, but they have plenty of time to consider it. Does Jacob Bethell come in to share the spin load with Joe Root?

  4. 'Stokes leads from the front and by example'published at 17:53 British Summer Time 14 July

    England's Joe Root, speaking to Test Match Special: "There's something about this date, it was always going to be an epic finish.

    "A bit of theatre and, yes, it made for a great Test match. I am excited for the last two, for sure."

    On Ben Stokes: "The way he manages the whole game, the way he managed to find ways to not just throw his whole body into today and the leading four days, but also to be able to stay calm and trust his process.

    "I'm really pleased he got the rewards with it. He threw absolutely everything into this. It shows what a brilliant leader he is.

    "He leads from the front and by example in everything he does.

    "I spent five years trying to stop him bowling spells like that, and it didn't work.

    "Now he's captain, I have no chance of stopping it!"

  5. 'Moments like this make it all worth it'published at 17:47 British Summer Time 14 July

    England bowler Jofra Archer to Sky Sports: "It was pretty hectic, for the first game back. I probably bowled a few more overs than I thought I would've but every single one mattered today so I'm not too fussed about it.

    "I only played one other Test here at Lord's and that one was just as special as this. It's been a long time coming, a lot of rehab, a lot of training. But moments like this make it all worth it.

    "Managing the workload is still very hard, being told you can bowl some days and not others, having to manage all that training around still trying to play cricket. Because some days you feel ready but you just never really know so the safest way is the best way.

    "This, definitely, is worth all the waiting. No, I didn't [think I'd never get here]. We're here now, and the plans we made years ago are starting to fill the calendar. I feel a bit speechless, seeing it all coming together.

    "I'm not totally out of the woods yet but it's a good start. The style of cricket that this team plays, it means I'm going to bowl a lot of overs!"

  6. Bashir's winning wicket 'written in the stars'published at 17:43 British Summer Time 14 July

    More from England captain Ben Stokes, speaking to Test Match Special about Jofra Archer: "I think you can just see what happens around the ground when he gets announced.

    "The crowd lifts, the atmosphere changes, the batters feel it when he comes on. To back up spells like he has done is going to do him the world of good.

    "To get through this game unscathed and the way he has bowled is going to be very good for the mental side of what it takes to be a bowler in Test match cricket."

    On Shoaib Bashir: "He's 21 years old, he's got a very badly broken finger, hand.

    "To even walk out there and bat. He didn't even ask, he got his pads on, and got his finger strapped up.

    "Every time I looked down at the bench, I could see his face peering saying, 'get me on'.

    "To finish that game off was written in the stars."

    Plenty of chat around the tension between the two teams and it certainly has added more anticipation for the remaining two matches.

    There was some unhappiness around England's tactics of winding down the clock at the end of day three, and then Mohammed Siraj has been fined for his altercation with Ben Duckett on day four.

    Jadeja and Carse continued things this morning with a mid-pitch collision, too.

  8. 'It all adds to the theatre'published at 17:35 British Summer Time 14 July

    England captain Ben Stokes, speaking to Test Match Special: "It was just bizarre. We have seen that when the ball was a bit harder and a bit newer, a lot more was happening.

    "It was a game of cat and mouse. I had to stay very true and very firm with myself with how I thought we would win this game.

    "If it was going to take 80 overs of singles. That's what I was going to do."

    On his own bowling: "The Test match is on the line, it is different. There are moments where I wouldn't even think about doing stopping.

    "Day five, Test match on the line - I have got some history of turning up in moments like that with the ball. I was pretty pumped.

    "I think a bit of niggle out in the middle gets over-egged from people watching. A massive series, emotions are going. All 22 are playing for their country. I don't think anyone in the India dressing room or England dressing room is going to be complaining about what was said.

    "We are out there putting our bodies on the line. It was always going to happen eventually. I'm all for it. I don't think it went over the line whatsoever. It adds to the theatre."

    England and particularly Ben Stokes will be very grateful for a bit of a longer break between Test matches now.

    The fourth Test at Old Trafford starts on Wednesday 23 July. It'll be interesting to see what England do with Archer, whether the likes of Carse and Woakes will get a rest too.

    Jasprit Bumrah, meanwhile, has played two of his scheduled three Tests and lost both...

  10. 'It is not just the hat, it's what it means'published at 17:25 British Summer Time 14 July

    England's Jofra Archer, speaking to Test Match Special about wearing Jonathan Agnew's hat, which he lost in a bet with Ben Stokes on Jofra Archer not returning to Test cricket for England: "I got it from Ben [Stokes], but I don't know who he got it from!

    "It is not just the hat, it's what it means. To be honest, I probably won't wear it again.

    "I probably bowled a few more overs than I thought I would but I am glad to get the win today on this special day.

    "I never thought about not coming back, that was just you [Jonathan Agnew].

    "Really, I only had two injuries. But also it was a long road back and I didn't realise how long it was.

    "I am glad to be back and hopefully I'm here a bit longer than the last time. I am back playing all three formats. The task now is to stay fit and stay on the park.

    "Honestly, I thought one of us would win by lunch. It dragged on a bit!"

    In his press conference, a downbeat Shubman Gill admits there has been some heat between the two teams but says there is a lot of admiration too.

    Speaking of England's leader, Ben Stokes is named player of the match.

    Across two monumental spells today, he claimed the huge wicket of KL Rahul this morning and then got rid of Jasprit Bumrah in the afternoon following his gritty stand with Jadeja.

    England always seem to find a way, particularly at home.

    When it gets tight they have a leader who drives them forward with a will to win.

    So much drama over the past few days.

    Siraj's send-off to Zak Crawley's 'injured' hand.

    Ben Stokes' run out to Ben Stokes being struck in a painful place.

    Jofra Archer's return, and Jofra Archer sending Rishabh Pant's off stump out the ground.

    At the end of it all, a number 11 getting a bottom edge on to his stumps.

  15. 'Makes for an even more exciting series'published at 17:11 British Summer Time 14 July

    India captain Shubman Gill, speaking to Test Match Special: "Tough luck, but I think the way we went out in the position in the morning to make a comeback like this was tremendous from Ravindra Jadeja and the low order.

    "An anti-climax for us the way Mohammed Siraj went.

    "We needed a couple of partnerships in our top order and that didn't happen for us.

    "On a tricky kind of wicket, it is not easy for the lower ending of the order and the tail to get runs in the last three or four wickets.

    "When you play these kind of Test matches with both teams giving everything they have - there is always admiration at the end because both teams try everything they can to win the Test match.

    "The match went so close, but there is admiration from both sides.

    "We were pumped up in the dressing room, if we were able to get this win it would have been great for our confidence."

    On the banter with England players: "It makes for an even more exciting Test series. When you're in the heat of the moment there's so many emotions involved.

    "Both teams are competitive and you're playing to win.

    "There is going to be moments where there is going to be a bit of heat."

    Just been chatting to some India fans.

    “All of the luck for England,” they say.

    Spare a thought for Ravindra Jadeja.

    A heroic innings, coming in after England ripped through the middle order in the morning session.

    Withstood all that pressure with Bumrah, took India to within 22 runs of victory.

    He finishes 61 not out from 181 balls.

    Stokes’ individual brilliance in this match might have just saved several players’ international careers. Not for the first time, either. They owe him big time.

    I think I need to call the physio over after that one.
