That was Parthiv Patel's highest Test score. His previous best was 69 against Pakistan at Rawalpindi in 2004.
Cheteshwar Pujara is the new batsman, with 385 runs in the series, two centuries and a fifty. He has marked out more of a trench than a guard with his boots and he looks as though he means business once again.

It was nice bowling from Moeen. We've all said this pitch has slow turn, so slow that it won't get you out unless it's a poor shot. Parthiv was trying to hit against turn. It was tiredness, he's been out there a long time.
Parthiv c Buttler b Moeen 71 (Ind 152-1)
Stand by your beds we have one! Parthiv had just reached his highest score but having been out there for the whole match, having kept wicket, there was a hint of fatigue as Moeen squared him up and a leading edge flew to cover.

I bought a china cup with me this morning. I bet the Queen doesn't have her tea out of a polystyrene cup.

Rashid has immediately looked the most likely for England but although there is some turn he cannot find that extra special ingredient. Don't worry, the wicket alert app is not broken, but it just may not be used for a while.

With a day of positive batting, India could be level by lunch tomorrow. If they pushed on from there, they could put England under pressure on the last day.
Steady from Moeen, just a single to Parthiv, but no cigar. There's a novel approach from the India crowd. We have a lady adorned in green body paint, a man painted up in orange and - presumably - their baby son in the middle in white, to complete the colours of the national flag. The little chap looks incensed by what they have made him do.
Rahul 79, Parthiv 63
A slip for Rashid, and Jennings under the lid at short-leg, who restricts the scoring to one run when his shin takes some pace of Parthiv's flick of the wrists, a human shield rather than a catcher.

This is the highest opening partnership for India against England in India. The previous best was Sunil Gavaskar and Farokh Engineer in 1973. India have had three higher opening partnerships against England in England.

Rahul in command here, although a full toss from Moeen should never cause him problems, he puts it away in style with a reverse sweep to the boundary.
Sunil Gavaskar
Former India captain on BBC Test Match Special
It's encouraging for England that they have a bowler in Rashid who is getting some deviation off the surface. He has hit a length straight away, now he has to get his line right.
Rahul 73, Parthiv 60
The mercurial Rashid and immediately more threat, with some genuine turn and bounce. 'Lovely start' Bairstow exudes from behind the bails. There is a confident lbw appeal against Parthiv but the wicketkeeper admits he couldn't see, Stokes opines it was heading down the leg side and no review is decided upon. The final ball is then over pitched and driven fluently through the covers by Parthiv for his sixth four.

This game feels similar to the last Test - India will probably score 600 plus and bowl England out for 180. 4-0 would be a fair reflection of India's domination of this series.

Moeen 0-35 from 11
Not much air from Moeen and he is comfortably farmed for singles by both batsmen. He takes his white sun hat and has a rueful rub of the beard.

Just captain Cook at slip and vice-captain Root at short extra cover close to the bat as Ball plugs away enthusiastically again. He took a wicket on his Test debut against Pakistan last summer and one in the last Test at Mumbai. No sign of one here yet. For any England bowler.
Vic Marks
Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special
Cook has tried most of his bowlers. Rashid will be on the cards, but he'll be coming on with two batsmen very well set. Already you're thinking of sharing out the punishment.
Rahul 69, Parthiv 51
As spider cam drifts high above the cut strip, Moeen resumes. We have our first appeal of the day, a hearty cry from Jonny Bairstow behind the bails as Parthiv misses a sweep, but barely a speculative raising of the eyebrows from the bowler and nothing comes of it.
There's been some excitement in the Women's Big Bash League today - Hobart Hurricanes, captained by England skipper Heather Knight, beat Melbourne Renegades (for whom Danielle Wyatt made 35) off the last ball of a Super Over, external after the sides were level after 20 overs.
Melbourne Stars' fans voted England spinner Danielle Hazell as their player of the match for a miserly 2-15 from four overs in their seven-wicket win, external over Sydney Sixers.
However, England duo Katherine Brunt and Becky Grundy finished on the losing side as Perth Scorchers were beaten by eight wickets, external by Brisbane Heat.
The men's Big Bash League starts on Tuesday.
