  1. Ind 79-4

    What a shot that is! Woakes overpitches and Kohli leans into it, down on one knee and smokes it through the covers for four. He doesn't move, just stands and admires his work in full appreciation of, well, himself.

  2. Michael Vaughan
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    England are bowling very nicely. There's just enough there. India look like a team who have been found out in these conditions, both technically and mentally. It's been a long tour. It's very much like the 2014 series.

  3. Ind 74-4

    Kohli 27, Rahane 1

    This is a good contest. England giving nothing away, but India - Kohli in particular - will not budge.

  4. India are four wickets down but could this potentially be the biggest moment of the game so far?

    BBC Sport at the Kia Oval

    On the subject of names, our son is named Freddie - both me and my other half had grandads named Fred or Freddie. On the night Little Fred was born, I phoned Big Fred to tell him the news and the name. "Oh, like Flintoff," he said. "No, Grandad, like you..."

    My middle name is Roberto, named in the 90s after Mancini. Two Liverpool fans for parents, upset 15 years later.

  7. Ind 73-4

    Kohli 26, Rahane 1

    Still, another testing over from Chris Woakes who has really got this ball talking after lunch.

  8. Not out

    A good review! It is too high and Rahane survives.

    Chris Woakes grimaces and puffs out his cheeks.

  9. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    It's straight but hit him above the knee roll.

  10. India review

    Rahane is given out lbw - he's taken it upstairs. Height the only thing saving him here, I'd say.

  11. Ind 73-4

    Oooh, another play and a miss from Kohli! He's having a bit of luck - is it his day? The slip cordon gasps in perfect synchronisation.

    My six-year-old has the middle name 'Jimmy'. My wife still thinks it is after her Grandad Jim.

    So much depends on Kohli here. You wonder what effect it would have on the team if he got out.

  14. Ind 72-4

    Kohli 25, Rahane 1

    A decent over from Overton goes for a couple of singles.

    India need a partnership here. Fair bit of pressure on Kohli, but he's one who enjoys a challenge.

  15. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match Special

    Root is saying that it is not an easy catch. He just held the pose to suggest there was something untoward.

  16. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Former England batter on BBC Test Match Special

    There's definitely swing in the air - Chris Woakes has got the ball hooping. Well done to Root, who had to be quite smart in waiting and following the swing.

    WICKET

    Jadeja c Root b Woakes 10 (Ind 69-4)

    No mistakes with that one!

    Different batter, but England don't care - Jonny Bairstow gives Joe Root a big cuddle to express his gratitude at a catch being held low to his left at first slip. Bit of swing and bounce from Chris Woakes to take the edge - isn't he having a decent return to Test cricket?!

  18. Over to you, Stephan.

    Anyone out there been named after a sportsperson? If I'd been a boy, my middle name would've been Michael as my dad's hero Michael Johnson won the 200 metres at the Olympics just a few minutes before I was born.

    Congratulations Stephan. Are you going with Ollie, James or Joe as the name?
