    Without his runs this would have been an amazing Test match. Forget slow over-rates. Forget sledging. Forget match-fixing. Virat Kohli is ruining cricket.

    Haseeb Hameed is watching on in the stands with his family, looking all awkward as the camera pans over to him. Kumar continues but he's lost his line again slightly. Parthiv Patel's swan dive behind the stumps can't stop the ball trickling away for a bye, before a better dive in the slips prevents Cook from picking up a boundary.

    John Hipkiss: Do England hold the record for having the most records by other teams against them?

    This is perfect for India as they have England's two best players out there early. They know if they get one they are into Moeen Ali next. They are generating swing. We didn't see any of this with England.

    Root 4, Cook 2

    That's nice from Cook, swivel pulling Umesh Yadav away for a single. It's Joe Root in at three, and Yadav gifts him three wide deliveries to get his eye in. When he strays onto the pad, Root runs him away for a boundary through third man to get off the mark. Moeen, the next man in, watches on thoughtfully from the dressing room.

    Keaton Jennings is the first player to score a century in his first Test innings and make a golden duck in his second.

    The pitch has looked flat today. We will find out in the next hour or so if it truly is. England look dejected today. It has been difficult. The crowd are on top and it is nearly full. The new ball tends to do something when you have such a dominant score on the board.

    That dismissal has shown just what effect 14 hours in the field will have on the mind, especially for someone in his debut Test. Jennings was at short leg for the majority of the India innings and trying to recover from that and mentally prepare yourself for batting, in the space of ten minutes, isn't easy for an experienced player. The crowd are loving this.

    There was a little bit of swing back. Jennings has never experienced this before - out there in the field for so long and then having to bat. It is a good angle of attack to a left-hander, around the wicket. You feel it that this could get messy for England. A miracle here would be a draw.

    Jennings is gone! A golden duck! That is not what England would have wanted. Bhuvneshwar Kumar just got that delivery to nip back and Jennings missed it. Up India went, supported by a crowd of over 20,000, and the umpire raised the finger. Out.

    You've seen a lot of young people here today. That is very encouraging. They will become fans of the game seeing the way Kohli and Jayant batted.

    Here are the combined figures for England's bowlers. It makes for grim reading:

    • Seamers: 64 overs, 221-2
    • Spinners: 118.3 overs, 397-8

    Plus side? Adil Rashid has now taken the most wickets by an England bowler in India since Derek Underwood in 1976. He's taken 22 in the series.

    England dropped Kohli. They dropped Jayant. They had their spin nullified and their four seamers found nothing in this pitch to help them. All that will be playing on their minds, and no matter how easy Kohli made it look, this pitch is going to be hard to bat on. Joe Root said yesterday it was difficult to get an innings started on this wicket.

    India have gone like the clappers to set that score. It is one of those days that statisticians love.

    You can see England look very, very tired. Cook and Jennings need to get England off to a good start to allow the others to get their bearings back.

    A lead of 231. It's turning. England have been in the field for 14 hours. The crowd has seen a magnificent 235 from the India captain. To say it's not going to be easy is an understatement of massive proportions.

    This is only the second time since 2012 that England have conceded 600 in an innings.

    631 all out. Say it with me. Six hundred and thirty one. Kumar goes for a swipe across the line to Rashid and it sails to Woakes in the deep. Woakes takes the catch and lobs the ball away as Cook and Jennings dart off the pitch. Nine tired looking England players walk off the pitch, just as Ashwin makes his way down the stairs.

    It would have been a sitter to first slip. Nothing is going right for England. It hasn't from the second ball of day three.
