    This is the ninth time in England's last 11 sixth-wicket partnerships that it has passed 50.

    Stokes 26, Bairstow 27

    Shot! Stokes sees a leg-stump gift from Ashwin and tickles it fine past the keeper and away for four runs. That's the fifty partnership up between these two, in just over 20 overs. They've done well this morning, the odd few moments aside. Ashwin's not quite been on his line either.

    Just woke up not realising the time but thinking it was later than the actual 4am it is. Thought we'd suffered another batting collapse in our second innings. So it's in fact been a good morning. And then I read Jonny Bairstow has injured himself walking out to bat. Omen?

    Follow-on target: 256

    Stokes likes Umesh Yadav's pace much better than the spin, as he whacks a pull to keep the score ticking over. Attack is the best form of defence and all that. Yadav has a strangled appeal for lbw ignored by the umpire to finish the over.

    Trail by 330

    That over has unsettled Stokes, who defends shakily before cutting the ball into the ground and up to point.

    I think he dragged his back foot out. Saha couldn't gather the ball. He's having a good game, isn't he?

  7. Missed stumping - Stokes 24published at 54.3 overs

    Eng 125-5

    Ashwin has another yelp for an lbw ignored by the umpire. Stoke left one that turned and hit him high on the back pad. Kohli purses his lips and stares into the distance, before watching Saha miss a stumping. Stokes was pressing forward and overbalanced, but Saha didn't get it cleanly when the batsman was struggling to shove his boot back over the line.

    I used to love slow, turning pitches. You have to work jolly hard for the first 25 balls, but men round the bat means there are a lot of gaps for you to hit the ball into. It's a great game of cat and mouse.

  9. Eng 124-5published at 54 overs

    Flat footed from Jonny Bairstow, which is understandable, but he's edged Umesh Yadav straight through the big gap between first and second slip. He wanders off to short leg to have a word with himself while Yadav grimaces.

    Mark Marshall: Bairstow's Question Of Sport "what happened next?" moment right there...

    Saleem Dean: How can we be surprised by Bairstow's trip when it's all we seemed to do yesterday afternoon?

  11. Eng 119-5published at 53 overs

    News from the England dressing room is that Zafar Ansari has recovered from his illness. Ravichandran Ashwin zips through another over and floats one up to Bairstow, who gets into that flamingo pose and works it for a single. I wonder how many cricket shots you can play on one foot. That's rubbish from Ashwin. Too short, Stokes cracks it away, thank you very much.

    Bairstow balances out playing on one foot with a one-handed drive at Umesh Yadav that rolls to cover. He's looked a bit frenetic since taking a tumble. Yadav ends the over with a bouncer that zips through at head height, and Bairstow gets down on one knee and swings his head out of the way.

    That is both India's reviews gone - for the first 80 overs at least.

  15. Eng 113-5published at 51 overs

    Bairstow is hobbling but he gets on one knee to hammer a sweep away for a single, before Ben Stokes pulls a horrid short ball to the boundary. Started with a poor review, ended with a short 'un. Ashwin will have better overs than that.

    I thought he gloved it - and I'm 140 yards away.

    In the realm of bad reviews, that's up there. India have reviewed for an LBW and the ball's smashed into Bairstow's glove. That's a run and India have lost their last review. Ashwin takes the sensible option of avoiding Kohli's eye.

    Ravichandran Ashwin will give us our first sight of spin, Jonny Bairstow gets down to sweep, the verdict is not-out and Ashwin makes the T-sign without consulting with captain Kohli. Here we go...

    The skill levels have been increased from Rajkot in terms of the bowling you are facing. Rajkot was a test of slow bowling - it didn't turn much - whereas here has been a test of spin bowling.

    Bairstoe 15, Stokes 12

    Jonny Bairstow's going to face Umesh Yadav. He's walking a little gingerly, shall we say. Umesh makes him feel better by smashing one into his thigh pad. Bairstow's decided to counteract the ankle by running on tippy toes to steal a quick second, but a better throw would have done for him there.
