    Ben Stokes, after his 62 at Trent Bridge, clipped a neat boundary off Hardik Pandya, one of only six fours in the morning session for England.

    Jonny Bairstow, broken finger and all, not keeping wicket in this match, was moved up to number four but made only six from 16 balls before he was caught behind off Bumrah in the 13th over to make it 28-3.

    All five of Jonny's Test centuries have been in the first innings of a match when he has been wicketkeeper.

    Root added only two more before he was given out lbw to Ishant Sharma. England chose to review the decision but it was a mistake to do so as there were three red lights and Root departed in the eighth over to leave his team on 15-2.

    Since making 80 in the first innings of the first Test, the captain has failed to reach 20 in the series.

    Joe Root would have wanted to have waited a while for a bat having won the toss on a sunny morning, but the dismissal of Jennings brought him out after only 10 minutes. He had made only two when there was a review for lbw.

    It was ticking all three boxes but Bumrah over-stepped and it was a no-ball, India retaining their review though.

    Keaton Jennings has had a wretched run and it was a four-ball duck for the left-hander today. Have you seen many more unusual dismissals than this one? How would you describe it? You wouldn't find it in any coaching manuals that's for sure.

    Jennings had made 94 runs in six innings - and eight of his 19 Test innings have ended with single-figure scores. He fell to Jasprit Bumrah in the third over and it was 1-1.

    Thanks Jack, I'm a big admirer of Ian Bell's batting too. Right, well let's have a look back at that session and it started well enough for England, Joe Root winning the toss for the fourth time in succession, but that was about the only thing to go right for the hosts.

    After that fine win at Trent Bridge to reduce England's lead to 2-1, India named an unchanged team for the first time in 46 matches, just short of their record run of 47 successive matches with a different XI.

    Right, I'm off for lunch too - Jamie Lillywhite is coming on to try and steady the ship.

    I'll leave you with this... Ian Bell is 89 not out at lunch for Warwickshire against Glamorgan.

    Just saying.

    Well played India, they gave England nothing. They held a good line and length, good disciplines and England in all sorts of trouble. Stokes and Buttler have got to try and drag England back into this game.

  9. Lunch - Eng 57-4published at 24 overs

    Ben Stokes defends the rest of the over and survives until lunch. He's 12 not out, with Jos Buttler unbeaten on 13.

    A tremendous bowling display by India, particularly openers Jasprit Bumrah and Ishant Sharma.

    England's batting? Well, you know the story by now.

    Craig Stevanato: No shock about the terrible over-rate. About time that teams are punished for this by giving the batting team five penalty runs for every over not bowled.

  11. Eng 57-4published at 23.4 overs

    Jasprit Bumrah to bowl the final over before lunch so no Ravichandran Ashwin.

    He gets one to swing into the pads of Ben Stokes. Brief appeal but nothing doing.

    That looked to have pitched outside leg.

    Pant's behind the stumps. Pants in front the stumps as well.

    I think India will want a couple of boxes of these balls to take home, they are bowling some absolute rip-snorters.

  14. Eng 56-4published at 23 overs

    Jos Buttler taps one to get off strike before Ben Stokes picks up two more.

    Yeesh. The last ball is absolute snorter by Mohammed Shami - 89mph and a just shaping away from Stokes, zipping past the outside ege.

  15. dropped catch

    Buttler dropped on 11published at 22.3 overs

    This is an odd one.

    Jos Buttler goes to leave the ball late but it flicks the bottom of the bat and flies through to Rishabh Pant, who spills it.

    It stays low but that could have been taken - Pant even had the ball in his gloves before it popped out.

    Big reprieve for Buttler.

    I still think it was the right decision to have a bat first but the ball has nipped off the seam. Pats on the back all round in the India dressing room at lunch.

  19. Eng 53-4published at 22 overs

    Ben Stokes advances down the pitch again but Jasprit Bumrah zips it across him, the ball missing the outside edge.

    He leaves the last alone and that's a maiden for Bumrah.

  20. Postpublished at 12:52 British Summer Time 30 August 2018

    Jasprit Bumrah is back on for another burst before lunch. Another wicket would be a full-on catastrophe for England.

    The over rate has been terrible by the way - just 21 overs in nearly two hours.
