Summary

  1. Eng 405-7published at 86 overs

    Lead by 364

    England get to 400 with a well-timed pull from Gus Atkinson that is in the gap between the two fielders in the deep and brings him two.

    Whipped through mid-wicket for four! It's a leg-stump half-volley but it still needed putting away and Atkinson did so in style.

    Joe Root's well-timed late cut is then very well stopped by Kevin Sinclair in the gully.

    That's a remarkable shot, he fell over playing it. Still timed it nicely.

  3. Eng 397-7published at 85 overs

    Lead by 356

    Joe Root ends up stumbling to the ground as he works the ball through mid-wicket.

    It doesn't look the most elegant but the timing was immaculate and the ball races away for four more.

    Good one to finish from Shamar Joseph that goes straight through Gus Atkinson but just over the top of the stumps.

  4. Eng 392-7published at 84.1 overs

    Lead by 351

    For the first time this summer, Joe Root gets out the reverse-scoop!

    Having reached his century, he decides the time is right but he doesn't make great contact.

    It goes over first slip for four but had Jason Holder been there, rather than at second, that could have gone straight to hand.

    Only seven boundaries in his century, that's a very low percentage of runs through boundaries. That's classic Root accumulating.

  6. Eng 388-7published at 84 overs

    Lead by 347

    Joe Root makes Gus Atkinson get his white dirty as he calls him through for a tight single.

    Atkinson puts the dive in and that may have been enough for him to get home. The throw from Kevin Sinclair missed in any case.

    Root is now just one century shy of Alastair Cook's England record of 33 in Tests.

    The roar of the crowd, the punch of gloves, the shout of "Roooooooot!"

    He raises his bat for a century in Test cricket for the 32nd time.

    Rooooooooooooottt!

    Joe Root nails a square drive to the fence to bring up his 32nd Test century.

    A typically classy stroke from the England number four in what has been a superbly composed knock.

    He punches the air before taking in the applause of the crowd - 158 balls to reach three figures.

    Root thought about it, but Jayden Seales was coming off the boundary very quickly to prevent that second run.

  10. Eng 379-7published at 83.1 overs

    Clipped leg side by Joe Root... is this the moment?

    No. He sprinted the first and was looking for two but Jayden Seales came haring in off the boundary and Root wisely settles for one.

  11. Eng 378-7published at 83 overs

    Gus Atkinson comes in and keeps out the last ball of the over.

    Back over to Joe Root, who will face up to Alzarri Joseph...

    Inevitable, you praise him and he plays a big drive - his favourite shot though, through the off side.

    A bit of extra bounce - I think that and the odd low ball will come into play a bit more than lateral movement on this pitch.

    A classic case of the commentator's curse...

    Shamar Joseph tempts Chris Woakes with a fullish ball outside off and the England man drives at it.

    Extra bounce from the new ball does for him, though. It goes quickly but Jason Holder takes a smart catch at second slip.

    Woakes is such a good player to come in at number eight.

  15. Eng 378-6published at 82.4 overs

    A bit of width from Shamar Joseph and Chris Woakes drives through the covers.

    Again, the fielder in the deep is able to cut it off and keep them to two.

    No stopping that one, though. On the hip from Joseph and Woakes glances it away fine.

    Kevin Sinclair built a bit of pressure before the interval. It's why I wasn't sure about taking the new ball, but I like that they've shown some intent.

  17. Eng 372-6published at 81 overs

    After Joe Root again takes a single early in the over, Alzarri Joseph squares up Chris Woakes and swings the ball past his outside edge.

    The England all-rounder is able to get off strike with a single next ball.

    A lovely cover drive from Root brings him two to end the over. He moves to 98.

    Alzarri Joseph has pulled his sweater off and is going to take the new ball at the other end. He always looks like he'll be penetrative, but there's always a bad ball in there. How can he exert a bit of pressure?

  19. Eng 368-6published at 81 overs

    Lead by 327

    First delivery with the second new ball is pushed square by Joe Root and a slight misfield allows him a single.

    Shamar Joseph won't mind that as he gets five balls at new batter Chris Woakes.

    Five dot balls but no real scare for Woakes in the over. Alzarri Joseph will share the new ball.
