  1. Tune, to be fair.

    I fully expect that to feature on the DJs playlist at The Hundred this summer - alongside Sweet Caroline and Dua Lipa, no doubt.

    We think you've got the wrong number...

  3. Ind 177-4

    Need 202 more runs to avoid the follow-on

    Filthy from Dom Bess. He drags one down and Cheteshwar Pujara pulls it away to the fence. Jack Leach was out there but Pujara times it so well he gets nowhere near it.

    That's the 100 partnership - Pant has scored 68 of them.

  4. Talking of spinners settling in, Dom Bess is replacing Jimmy Anderson.

    Bess could quite easily just bowl from this end, unchanged, till the end of the day now.

  6. Ind 172-4

    A maiden from Jofra Archer.

    That's what England have to do - restrict the scoring, build pressure and entice a mistake.

  7. Mayers reaches 150 in West Indies' chase

    An update from Chittagong...

    Kyle Mayers has reached 150 as he threatens to play one of the all-time great knocks for West Indies against Bangladesh.

    The tourists are 321-5 and need another 74 runs for victory in 18 overs.

    It would be the fifth highest run-chase in Test history.

    It's amazing how much batting gloves have improved over recent years. That would have broken fingers not so long ago.

  10. The India doctor effectively tells Cheteshwar Pujara to get on with it.

    Jofra Archer will continue.

  11. Ind 172-4

    JimmyBCCI

    We've just seen a close-up of the ball and it is absolutely battered. The seam on one side is scuffed and practically coming away from the ball.

    It is going to be hard work for England. The second new ball will be due roughly an hour into tomorrow's morning session.

    Anderson gets a bit of inward movement off the final delivery and it raps Cheteshwar Pujara on the bottom hand and he wants the physio to come and have a look.

  12. Ind 171-4

    Make that 98 as Rishabh Pant guides Jimmy Anderson, admittedly via an edge, but played with soft hands, through the clip cordon for another boundary.

  13. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on The Cricket Social

    When you see Pant bat like this, crikey, he just dismissed poor old Leach. It hasn't swung the game back into India's favour, of course, but he's seized the initiative.

  14. Ind 167-4

    This ball is a lot softer now so Jofra Archer isn't getting anywhere near as much bounce and carry as earlier. So much so that one has just pea rolled to Jos Buttler.

    This partnership is worth 94 now.

  15. Ind 167-4

    Lovely from Cheteshwar Pujara.

    Jofra Archer goes for the yorker, but overpitches and India's number three just strokes it back down the ground for another boundary.

    England just need to be patient here.

  16. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on The Cricket Social

    The way Pant has been going, if you do get another session like the last then India will be forging their way back into the game.

  17. Ind 163-4

    Oh, Rishabh Pant. That is glorious.

    He's on the back foot, standing tall, and just punches Jimmy Anderson through the covers for four more.

    He might not be the best keeper in the world, but boy is he talented with the willow in his hand.

    Anybody who watched India in Australia, you must get Pujara and Pant. Thinking cap on Root.

  19. Ind 159-4

    Short and wide from Jimmy Anderson and Rishabh Pant slaps it to the cover boundary.

    He's not going to miss out on those.

  20. Like after lunch it's going to be Jimmy Anderson alongside Jofra Archer.

    Anderson has just had a long chat with Joe Root about his field and their plans. Can he conjure up a breakthrough?
