Given! Jack Leach gets Shubman Gill lbw. It looked straight but Rohit has talked his younger team-mate into a review.

A lovely story. More please.

I was bowled out for a golden in an under-13 game by the only girl on the other team. Like most groups of 13-year-old boys would, I was mocked, despite her being their best and quickest bowler! We ended up in the same cricket club (Esher CC) five years later, and I recognised her name. We now live together, and she knocks me for six every single day.

Rohit 20, Gill 14
It has been pointed out to me Moeen Ali is wearing some very baggy trousers. Is he wearing someone else's? Had he thrown his own away after his previous Test?
More extras come, this time leg byes. It has been a miserable day for England.

A maiden from Leach, the second of the innings. There are only nine overs remaining today. We may finish on time.

Ind 37-0
Argh. A stumping chance goes by for Ben Foakes. It was very tough with Rohit charging down the pitch and the ball spinning sharply between bat and pad. Foakes got a glove on it but even he couldn't hold on.
We know what everyone would be saying had Jos Buttler missed that...

Ex-England bowler on The Cricket SocialIndia will be ruthless, especially against this England side, but they will probably change up their bowlers for the next Test anyway.

BBC Test Match Special commentator on The Cricket SocialThe gameplan here, with three days left, is not to declare at all, is it? You just want to tire out your opposition, don't you?

Ben Stokes looks both sick and befuddled at slip after an edge from Rohit drops short of him at slip.
My Dad has recorded today's play and is watching about five hours behind. He has just text me excited by Moeen's first over of the day. Should I tell him or not?

Not outpublished at 10:14 Greenwich Mean Time 14 February 2021
A dive has saved the India opener after he was sent scrambling back. Olly Stone's was decent but maybe slightly too high.
Umpire reviewpublished at 10:13 Greenwich Mean Time 14 February 2021
Is a run-out the way to get Rohit out? England aren't too confident.
Ind 34-0published at 7 overs
I sense England fans need cheering up. It's Valentine's Day so send me your stories of love found or, maybe even better, lost through cricket.

Sir Alastair Cook
Former England captain on The Cricket SocialThis is a horrible time to captain. You've been bowled out for below par. You've got to keep the motivation of the lads, even though India have got a free shot at it. There's no pressure on the batsmen - they've got great licence.
Ind 31-0published at 6 overs
Lead by 226
Having gone the entire first innings without conceding a bye, Ben Foakes does here but in truth had very little chance. It was a full ball from Leach, another bomb hitting beach-like explosion from the pitch, turn and bounce. Eight from the over.
