    India won't get close to England until the close of play, if they're good enough to bat that long.

  2. Ind 150-2published at 55 overs

    India are away. Kohli is away. The first runs of the day come from the first real loose delivery as the new man is quickly into position to guide a delicate cut shot past the diving Stokes at backward point for four.

    Hutch: Just got home from work. Cracking ball from Ball. Come on England!

  4. Eng 146-2published at 54 overs

    For so long during yesterday's final session, England were unable to ruffle even a strand of Indian hair. Now, they get to exert some real pressure.

    Moeen finds an excellent length, right in to the corridor of uncertainty, allowing the pitch to do the work. It keeps Vijay anchored at the striker's end. A second maiden.

    A wonderful start. These two batsmen played beautifully yesterday but this is a different day - a break always helps the bowling side. That wicket will lift England tremendously.

  6. Ind 146-2published at 53 overs

    So, Pujara has gone. Excellent. However, his replacement at the crease is one Virat Kohli. 

    Ball completes a wicket maiden with some probing deliveries outside off.

    It is exactly the start England were hoping for.

    What a strange dismissal. What a start for England - just the lift they needed.

    Pujara b Ball 47 (Ind 146-2)

    What a start for England! A few eyebrows will have been raised at the news Jake Ball was starting with the ball, but the plan works to perfection. It is a beauty of a delivery, jagging back in and taking out the off stump that Pujara had exposed with a badly misjudged leave.

    If I'm one of the best fast-medium bowlers that England have ever had, I'd be thinking, 'What am I doing here?'

    I've got a brew in front of me and we're about to dive headlong in to a whole day of Test cricket. Game on.

    Ashwin is a master of his craft.

    Today would be a very good day for England's spinners to have, well, a very good day. Ravi Ashwin et al did a fine job of limiting the tourists to 400 when they were, at one stage, 230-2. Moeen produced one belter of a ball yesterday to claim England's only wicket thus far but was largely neutered while Adil Rashid was inconsistent at best.

    As for the seamers? Well, I think yesterday was rocket fuel to the fire that England have got their selection wrong for this Test.

    So, the good news for the tourists... India trail by 254 runs. The bad news... they've lost just the one wicket and Pujara and Vijay in ominous form. Where does the balance of play lie? Over to you Jos...

    If you are an England fan and are reading this at the time it was published, I salute you.

    After yesterday's final session, you would be forgiven for still been asleep right now, pretty secure in the knowledge that India were going to grind the tourists into the Mumbai dirt.

    But no, for you possess that very quality on which England need to draw this morning. Belief.
