    Ged Ashton: Day five will last until the final wicket is gone.

    There has been one close game and each team has been thrashed once. That's where we are in the series.

    At the moment the stewards almost outnumber the spectators.

  4. Day five will last...

    Lissie: Day 5 will last as long as it takes for Jimmy to seal a 50 and with it, a knighthood.

    They say Root got it wrong at the toss but I think he was right to bowl because you would have assumed that India were so shot in the mind that they would not have been able to cope.

  6. Over the last few years England fans have often asked for fight from the team in losing situations but have usually been disappointed.

    Yesterday was different.

    After being reduced to 62-4, Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes batted for 346 balls for the hosts in a battling partnership.

    Buttler was rewarded with his maiden Test century.

    He has scored six one-day hundreds cricket but says the ton yesterday is his "proudest moment in an England shirt".

  7. How's stat?!

    BBC Test Match Special statistician

    There has never been only one ball bowled on the final day of the match. There have been three days in which there were two balls bowled, one of which was rained out. The other two finished the game. Georgetown in 1965 and 1937 when Australia needed two wickets and got them in the first two balls. This is the 11th time that the final day has started with nine wickets down.

  8. Day five will last...

    Stu: So how long will day five last for? I'm going for four balls.

    A Test match day has never lasted just one ball.

    As the tweet above says, a day has lasted two deliveries three times before but never one.

    I want you to complete this sentence. Day five will last...

    We thought it would be all over before today but it's not and I'm looking at England below me playing football, as inevitably they do.

  11. India will win this Test match today unless something incredible happens and you can hardly begrudge them the victory.

    They have been the better team throughout the first four days.

    Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes restored some English pride yesterday by batting through the afternoon but with the second new ball India ruined any hopes of an escape act.

    Rashid and Anderson hung on to take it to the final day but surely it's just delaying the inevitable.

  12. The rain dances failed. It's dry at Trent Bridge.

    England are facing an impossible task.

    The final-wicket partnership of Jimmy Anderson and Adil Rashid must bat all day to save this Test.

    It could all be over in one ball...

  13. So...

    It's not raining.
