    Here we go. Anderson v Kohli.

  3. Ind 164-2published at 55 overs

    Virat Kohli with a little shuffle across his stumps and with a flick of the wrists he works Ollie Robinson for a couple through fine leg to get off the mark.

    Later in the over, Kohli leans into a fuller one and pushes to mid-on before setting for a single to keep the strike.

  4. Ind 161-2published at 53.5 overs

    Another noise as KL Rahul withdraws the bat from a steepling delivery from James Anderson prompting a flicker of interest but the England seamer knows the bat was nowhere near the ball. England building a little spell of pressure here. Virat Kohli still on nought.

  5. Ind 161-2published at 53.3 overs

    Joe Root shares a quick joke with Jonny Bairstow in the cordon. Third ball of James Anderson's over and he is guided by KL Rahul through the vacant third man region with soft hands to pick up a boundary.

    The level just goes up - even up here - when Virat Kohli is at the crease.

    They all went up - all of them. A moment of high excitement.

  8. Ind 157-2published at 52.6 overs

    Ollie Robinson beats Virat Kohli's outside edge and there's a huge appeal by the slip cordon and Jos Buttler! There was a noise but England decide against a DRS review. Ultra Edge seemed to suggest it was bat on to pad.

  10. Ind 157-2published at 52.2 overs

    A peach from Ollie Robinson first up which Virat Kohli plays and misses at. Next ball it's a solid defensive block from the India skipper.

  11. Postpublished at 16:36 British Summer Time 12 August 2021

    Ollie Robinson to bowl the first over after tea. Three slips and a gully in place with Virat Kohli on strike.

    A hint of Compo (played by Bill Owen) from Last of the Summer Wine in that artificially-aged Jimmy Anderson.

    Thanks Callum. Just finished a lolly ice in time to take over. James Anderson eh? He's given England something to cling to. A few more wickets in the evening session would claw back the day for England.

    They've just rung the bell at Lord's for the players to come back on to the field.

  15. Postpublished at 16:31 British Summer Time 12 August 2021

    That is me done for the day.

    The final session will get going at 16:35 BST, with play going on until 18:50. There is the extra half hour available to get the overs in, weather and light permitting.

    Timothy Abraham will take you through the final session.

    Chris Adams: KL Rahul making a mockery of suggestion that England batters’ failings is due to them not having had enough red-ball cricket. Top-order batting is about technique, timing and patience. You either have it or you don’t.

  17. Postpublished at 16:28 British Summer Time 12 August 2021

    KL Rahul has batted completely differently to Rohit Sharma, taking 108 balls to hit his first boundary, but it has been another high-class innings from the India opener.

    He's got back-to-back half-centuries in this series.

    Luke O'Neill: Running out of superlatives for @jimmy9. Just a legend.

    Here's that bit of brilliance from Jimmy Anderson to dismiss Rohit Sharma, and then Cheteshwar Pujara.

    It gives England a chance to fight their way back into the day in the final session.

  20. Postpublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 12 August 2021

    Rohit Sharma was magnificent for his 83.

    He was made to wait for that first overseas century, thanks to a bit of brilliance from James Anderson, but this innings - in the conditions he faced - could prove pivotal come the end of the game.
